Qrow: The City of Mistral!

Nora: Ugh! It's about time!

Qrow and are walking through a stone brick tunnel illuminated by translucent lanterns.

Nora: Whose idea was it to walk again?

Ren: Well, we did face many obstacles. Broken airships, destroyed settlements...

Jaune: Oh, and, you know, all those people and monsters that tried to murder us, And Y/N coming back with a child.

Ruby: Pfft, we were fine.  Only one of us almost died.

She looks at Qrow

Qrow:  Hey...

Nora puts her hands on her hips and looks at Ren.

Ren: Hey.

Nora giggles in response.

Jaune: So, how much farther to ?

Qrow: Almost there. But I figured I'd take you kids on the scenic route.

Y/N: Well yeah...Maybe next time we can take the quicker rou- Ah! Alesha no biting my hand.

Ruby giggle before taking out a bag of cookies and handing them to Alesha

Qrow gasps shocked.

Ruby: What?

Qrow shakes his head and laughs

Qrow: Nothing Kids didn't expect you to just give away cookies.

Ruby: Well I'm rewarding her for biting Y/N's hand

Y/N: Wha- Hey!

She turns around and sticks her tongue out at him.

Ruby: That's what you get for putting mayonnaise in my toothpaste!

Y/N: How many times do I have to tell you It was meant for Nora!

Nora: Ohhhh I like mayonnaise!

Ruby: Well Mr Giant you going to have to make it up to me!

Y/N slides behind her picks her up then places her on his back.

Y/N: That better? 

Ruby smiles

Ruby: Much better

She feels someone climb onto her back.

Alesha: Yes much better

The young Wolf Faunus says from over Ruby's shoulder

The rest laugh at the three before walking on.



The group approaches a pair of large, wooden double doors, which Qrow opens, flooding the tunnel with sunlight. Ruby runs out onto a massive platform that doubles as an elevator, stopping at the railing to gaze out over the city in wide-eyed awe.

Ruby: Wow!

The others join her to take in the view of buildings and stone stairways perched on mountains.

Ruby: This... is... awesome!

Below them, large crowds of people are going about their day - walking around, talking and buying merchandise legally and illegally.

Qrow: It's certainly something.

Ruby:  Oh my gosh, look at all the weapons!

Qrow: Vendors here'll sell you just about anything... whether they should or not.
