Yang and Weiss complete their training and prepare to leave for Mistral. Meanwhile, Blake and Sun discover that Blake's old acquaintance Ilia Amitola, is now a white Fang member. At the same time, Team RNJR are forced to choose between taking two paths. Ren and Nora decide to take the mountain path while Ruby and Jaune carry Qrow through Kuroyuri.

The White Fang was once a peaceful organization fighting for true equality for the Faunus. Over the years, however, many members began to favor violent and extreme tactics in order to demand respect from the humans of Remnant. Though Blake Belladonna eventually decided to leave the White Fang and its growing acts of terror, not all of her friends made the same decision.

Team RNJR and Qrow arrive at Haven Academy and meet Haven Academy's headmaster, Professor Lionheart. Meanwhile, Weiss, Blake and Yang are all trying to reach their goals.

Ghira makes a speech to the people of Menagerie. While Weiss is dealing with bandits, RNJR get the chance to meet Oscar and figure out their next move.

Blake and Sun try to recruit help for defending Haven, with poor results. While Ruby gives the worried Oscar a pep-talk, the Albain brothers discuss and plan the White Fang's direction.

Despite development and growth, things are made tense for Team RWBY in Mistral when Ruby brings up Blake. Meanwhile, in Menagerie, Blake agrees to a nighttime meeting with Ilia.

Ruby talks relics with Ozpin and Qrow while Raven meets with Leo. Meanwhile, the attack on the Belladonna house is still going on. Blake and Ilia fight for their ideals.

As the battle for Haven reaches its conclusion on the surface, Yang confronts her mother at the relic vault.

Willing to strike down anyone who gets in the way of his twisted version of justice, Adam has declared to fight for the rights of his people, but over the years he's strayed further and further from these idealistic claims. He's a dangerous combination of ferocity and delusion whose only goal is to torment his ex-partner, Blake Belladonna, whom he considers to be responsible for his fall from power.

Ruby Rose and her friends have been burdened with transporting the Relic of Knowledge safely to Atlas. There's countless miles of Grimm-covered countryside between the city of Mistral and the northern coastline of Anima. Fortunately, the Argus Limited can easily make the journey... so long as nothing goes wrong.
