'It seems mother and Jalter have come to a mutual understanding that's good, if they ended up in a hostile relationship it would be a pain in the ass to deal with later down the line.'
As I picked the paralysed Jalter up in Princess carry her face went a shade of red thought not physically possible. Steam also came out her ears in a comedic fashion that only anime can do.
Soon we will return home though it's been a few a couple weeks at most I still miss them over the years I've become highly attached to them. To outsiders we are the scum of society murderers, thief's and worse and honestly yes we are to our enemies or outsiders. But to each other we are a family who rely on each other when one of us dies we all weep for him if someone accomplished a feat we all share his joy. They failed to show this in the series but every person has two sides the one we show our 'persona' or 'mask' we always wear but we never wear one we are honest with ourselves.
Yet on the flip side their are people like Ozpin he may seem amicable, kind even friendly to those who may benefit him. Yet beneath his mask is a shadow larger than his light a man who will seemingly do anything for his goal, whilst this may seem good on paper over time people like thats ideals slowly become warped s once caring kind man could become a ruthless tyrant I myself have experienced that first hand that is why in this life I swore to always remain as 'me' not letting fire nor ice change me.
Though I say this I hold no pity for Ozpin he even in this remnant is a Bastard a monster he even tried to control a six year old! I can understand manipulation but doing it to a child who hasn't even hit double digits... the only good thing to ever come of Ozpins scheming was Ruby and Yangs birth which I'm almost certain he had something to do with since mother and Tai are completely opposites. Salem.... I wonder what she's like destroying humanity aside she was just dealt a bad hand in life so I can only pity her... I wonder what the old Bastard is doing now.

I've sent as many spare hunters as I can to enter that forest and nobody could enter more than a mile inwards around that point scrolls stop working eventually they pass out and a bit later they wake up on where they began on the outskirts of the forest. I even sent Qrow believing only Branwen's could enter only to once again to be proven wrong he was also found unconscious where he entered. What makes it worse is the trees are seemingly impervious to fire and damage in general.
Looking at my desk I saw I had two calls one from my doctor the other general Ironwood. I of course picked up the general first.
(???: is for phone calls to simplify it)
Ozpin: hello general Ironwood is this about the aforementioned matter of the... bandits?
Protesters are being more problematic as of late be it Faunus right protests or for increased wages.
Ironwood: indeed we managed to catch a bandit grunt from another tribe since they seem to all be mobilising and moving towards the Branwen not to raid but peacefully it seems. And he said something rather concerning.
Hmm yes that is indeed strange if they aren't attacking why is it they are all mobilising and heading to Branwen territory.
Ozpin: oh what could that be maybe the Grim queen has made her move?
Ironwood: no no no at least if that happened we'd know what that meant no the bandit merely said a simple phrase before biting his tongue off it was 'as prophesied it has begun' looking deeper into it in our highly restricted Atlas archives we found an old prophecy written by some man named Satanta I believe it was?
God damn it even in death you foil my plans you filthy dog though if he could see the future this could help us.
Ironwood: it was in these exact words 'when the king of bandits falls dead an empress will take his place. Justly she will rule, with an iron fist and steadfast heart. 3 shall meet their fates at her hand a jester shall meet his end dancing upon her palm, the betrayed will find liberation and she who was lost will return.' I have no idea of the meaning besides a new strong ruler of bandits will take over now I must leave I have Winter to train.
What could it mean a 'jester' a 'betrayed' and a 'lost'. This is concerning indeed perhaps I could control this new 'bandit empress' as long as it's not Raven who saw my plans on my scroll I'll be fine.

Now let's check the doctor.
Ozpin: no I haven't why?
Doctor: hmm strange well due to some strange mutations is seems you will never be able to... feel pleasure again in any way shape or form.... my apologies.
Ozpin: *silent tear* 'well at least in my next body I'll have my Lance' (A/N *Cheshire Cat grin) ok thank you very much have a nice day.
