*Two year sense last chapter.*

So quite a bit of time has gone past and many things have taken root within the Household of Yang and Ruby.

Yang had finally meet her mother raven after being convince by Qrow to return, She was there helping her daughter out become stronger But Yang was resentful at first, but got over it after a little family gathering,  as they explained all that was going to happen, Raven looking towards both Yang and Ruby couldn't help but shutter a little.

This world was all about kill or be killed, however she couldn't shake that motherly instincts within herself. The very same instincts which caused her great conundrum so many years ago. And caused her to leave.

But Yang, her own daughter, almost died, And she wasn't even there to help. And for whatever strange reason it hurt.

It should have simply been chalked up to the fact that she was weak and the weak die but, it was simple after she thought about it, deep inside her heart Raven still had the lingering feelings of a mother towards Yang, but she was just to scared to let them fly because of how they were raised.

But now she was here, And whether she liked it or not she was going to have to deal with these feelings while she helped trained up her daughter After all with Little Miss Rose over there becoming the vessel of fiddlesticks She wasn't too keen on letting her daughter not be a skilled warrior went around her.

Not that she doesn't trust Ruby, She just doesn't trust the two demons that are with her, and the one within her.

On a completely different note Now that Yang's mother was helping her train, Evelyn was helping Ruby get a better understanding of how to use her demonic abilities.

Yes it might seem strange that the servant is training the master, but Evelyn didn't really seem like she was bothered by it, because considering that her master was literally fiddlesticks vessels This was just a golden opportunity to establish a connection with the young girl.

You see Evelyn was a very smart entity, She could have grow and understand many things, And after being with the young Rose for so long she was able to understand what friendship was and formed a pseudo friendship with Ruby allowing this relationship between master and servants to be a little bit more simple and less complex.

Tai, Qrow and Raven would sit back and watch and the Rose continue to work with her demonic abilities and to Raven who was trying to get used to the fact that her nephew had these abilities was astounded.

She could walk on her own too human legs just fine and she's also learned how to summon and unsummon the appendages which fiddlesticks gave her, It would also appear that she gained control over her voice being able to speak in a much more human voice rather than the blend between horrific nightmare and gentle little girls voice.

Also Ruby has learned how to use the essence of Fiddlesticks to augment Magic in certain ways.

She's created a few spells on her own which were usually meant to silence her victims before siphoning out their life force, devouring their very souls before they even have a chance to realize what's happening.

It was impressive, but terrifying, Because when they watched her do this to a Nevermore The poor thing didn't even know what hit it.

First Ruby used the shadows to keep herself concealed, Before unleashing a murder of crows which flew into the air and began to relentlessly attack the poor massive bird.

After fiddling it down enough towards her level Ruby would use her newfound magic to trap the beast within a nightmare.

This ability/magic was called [illusion of the demonic rose], A name which Evelyn helped her came up with.
