Clover confiscates the Relic of Knowledge

Clover and his team were called in to Mantle to investigate reports of a stolen Atlesian airship entering its airspace, as well as unauthorized use of weapons by civilians.

Clover and his team caught them by surprise and seized their weapons before leaving them in the custody of the authorities.

Defeating and arresting Tyrian Callows

Clover, along with the rest of the Ace Ops and Ruby's Group (bar Oscar) deploy to Mantle in an airship. The flight is interrupted by a pair of Teryxes, who destroy their Manta and forces the group to eject into the city below. There, he and Qrow receive orders from Ironwood for a special assignment.

A broadcast is sent out to all of Mantle and Atlas by Ironwood and Robyn which Ironwood reveals the existence of Salem and links the recent murders in Mantle to her minions Tyrian Callows and Arthur, while Robyn uses her Semblance on him to prove it to all be true. The two encourage everyone to stand together due to Salem's goal being to divide them. Ironwood reveals his plans involving the Amity Communications Tower, claiming it is ready for launch and tells the civilians they will be evacuated to Atlas.

As a result, Tyrian looks to cause further panic and division, hunting down Robyn once she revealed her location in the broadcast. Robyn leaves her Happy Huntresses to search for any missed civilians and is shortly after cut off by Tyrian. Tyrian attempts to attack Robyn but is ambushed by Clover and Qrow, and Robyn reveals it to be a trap that she and Ironwood devised.

Martial Law and Death[]

V7 12 00204

Tyrian impales Clover.

Aboard the Manta serving as prisoner transport, Robyn and Clover barely have time to discuss the message that was just sent out by Ruby about Ironwood's plan to declare martial law and of Salem's incoming arrival before a wanted notice is sent out to people's Scrolls. Due to Qrow being listed in the notice along with RWBY, JNPR and Oscar, Clover prepares to arrest Qrow, calmly explaining the situation, only for Robyn to start accusing him of following James' apparent tyranny. Clover attempts to de-escalate the situation, but Robyn attacks him leading to a three way battle between Clover, Robyn, and Qrow. During the fight, Tyrian is broken free from his seat and crashes the Manta.

At the Manta crash site in the Solitas tundra just outside Mantle, Qrow finds Robyn unconscious, and Clover uses the opportunity to tell him to surrender, begging him to not spark another fight. Qrow refuses and the two reluctantly continue their fight. Meanwhile, Tyrian frees himself of his restraints and joins the fight. Clover prevents Qrow from fighting Tyrian, and upon observing this, Tyrian offers Qrow a temporary truce where the two of them would focus on Clover.

V7 12 00212

"Good luck."

Qrow and Tyrian fight Clover together, and the battle results in Qrow breaking Clover's Aura. Qrow yells at Clover, demanding to know why he couldn't ignore his orders and do the right thing, which Clover responds by saying he trusts James with his life and wanted to trust Qrow in the same way. While they argue, Tyrian retrieves Qrow's sword and uses it to murder Clover. A Manta flies overhead, and Tyrian flees, assuming the airship to be the authorities. Qrow kneels by Clover's side, promising that he will make sure Ironwood will take the fall. With his dying breath, Clover wishes him good luck. Qrow breaks down in pain as he mourns Clover's death.

Following this, Qrow and Robyn are arrested. Still heartbroken, Qrow takes Clover's bloodied good luck pin with him, looking at it in mourning as he's taken away.
