Pisstaking aside.

1) Ironwood losses his shit when he finds out Saleem can't die and Oz has been lying to them and becomes downright uncopoerativ out of paranoia and creates more problems for himself rather than fixing the,

2) Whitely abuses his newfound influence as heir as well as more scenes to make absloutely sure you hate Jacques and Whitley in case you don't already.

3) Ironwood, Winter (Schnee) or Qrow die. If not, then in the next volume.

4) Ruby for some reason is septerated from the others to 1v1 Neo, while the others fight Tyrian and Watts (as well as maybe Saleem's flying monkeys and whatever the hell the other thing she was doing was before the screen went black in the post credits scene.)

5) For some reason, they can't get the Atlus relic straight away after getting the Winter maiden and have to wait for it, either because of Ironwood being uncoperative or because of Watts somehow preventing them.

6) Whitley  sides with Watts and helps his plan out because he doesn't want Weiss coming back or getting her old status as heiress (This one is a bit more far-fetched and one I'm less confident in, but I can still see this happening).

I doubt everything in Atlus will be resolved in this volume. I'm fairly sure we'll spend 2 volumes here rather than one in Mistrel.

As for things I don't think will happen:

1) Neo betraying Cinder, or to be more precise, it going as smoothly for Neo as the fandom wants/thinks it will.

2) Cinder having any direct fighting involvement, mainly going by how she worded her plan in V6.

3) Getting the relic this volume (Or at least the protagonists won't get it, I could see the villans geting it, whether it being Salem 's team or Cinder's).

4) Raven and Taiyang plotline happening at all (I doubt there's enough time with all the plot threads going into Atlus, not to mention new ones that will be created in Atlus itself we don't know yet, plus it's not really relevent to what's happening at the moment.)

5) FNKI having any signiicant plot role apart from a cameo and maybe the main characters having a conversation with them.
