2) I would like for Sun and Blake to maybe go out into Menagerie's deserts at some stage and for Sun to show that it really isn't as hard to live in the desert as they think - and then a few years down the track she goes to Vacuo and sees it for herself.....

1) No. I was saying it was the Kingdoms's exploitation of the land. To quote the WoR: "...But when other, more developed Kingdoms set their eyes on everything Vacuo had to offer, its citizens couldn't do anything to stop them from taking it."

And then Qrow inmediately follows with "Years of human conflict, unrestricted mining, and ecological disasters have changed Vacuo", which tells me Atlas, and Mistral to an extent, were responsible for Vacuo's current state to at least a big extent.

Look again, I didn't say Kingdom. I said Kingdoms.

2) That would be beautiful. Make Blake get a dose of reality, show her that "The Faunus don't have it as badly as the White Fang makes it seem".

Blake: ''Oh, Menagerie, that sugar-coated insult. An island that's not even half-Anima in size, and it's also 2/3s desert that are inhospitable due to MMA-Champs Kangaroos and Super-Secret Agent Platypuses. Those bastard humans :C''

Vacuans: ''Bitch please, we don't have trees, our people live in shacks, we barely have resources and can't even make a proper settlement, and you don't see US whine about it! :P''
