User blog:Zathronas/Speculative author: Where are the Grimm?

Hello and welcome to the 7th Installment of speculative author.



I’ve noticed a glaring omission from volume 2, something that was shown as the most dangerous enemy and the reason for the Huntsman existence in volume 1 has been virtually non-existent in the first 7 episodes of the new volume. Where are the Grimm? Where are the greatest threat men has ever seen?

In episode 2 of volume 2, we’ve been told that travel between kingdoms have become dangerous. Surely, that’s not the result of Cinder and her group. We also learned that team CFVY is on a mission and had still not returned by the ball. Some might say that the white fang is implicated in their lateness but we are getting more and more indication that Cinder’s plan involves Vale or something in Vale and nowhere else.

Could this mean that the Grimm is on the move?

Monty stated before volume 2 that the Grimm hasn’t really shown their strength in volume 1 and that would change in a big way in volume 2. The Cinder arc is interesting but the more I see where it is going, the more it feels local, I’m not saying she not dangerous but I believe the real threat of the show is the Grimm, not her.

So here is my prediction for the Grimm in Volume 2.

The mission for RWBY, JNPR and the others will be Grimm related. I believe RWBY will get the job of finding CFVY and when they do, it will not be pretty. Some of them will be dead. I think Velvet will survive but not some of her teammates. A battle will ensue where all of the teens will barely escape with their lives.

This would prove that the Grimm is a serious threat and would put the focus back on them as the main antagonist. I also think a surprise will be waiting for them back in Vale when they come home but that is for another blog... ;)

What do you think the Grimm have been doing all this time?
