After heading back to the boat and getting the skull off his head he went to a secluded small cabin in the forest near the commercial district to go over what he had recovered from Ozpin's desk. But now without messaging Traya that he was still alive.

Sitting down in the kitchen table Hector went to work reading the various messages from Qrow and Ozpin. The first thing he noticed is that they were short and ominous when discussing about anything related to Salem such as.

The Queen has pawns.

Which was the last message about Salem before the Fall.

'They must've only talked in person about Salem. Still got more to go through. Even then, if this is how low key they were being then it shouldn't be hard to find something related to the Maidens.'

Hector thought before going over his messages with Glynda. Which had something he didn't expect but wouldn't put it past Ozpin to do.

'This guy had 2% of Beacon's funding to buy his coffee?! How much was he drink- FOCUS!'

Going back on track he continued to read the any messages between Ozpin and Glynda which were more concerned with students and paperwork. Though he did read about how both teams RWBY and JNPR had a food fight which resulted in the entire cafeteria being described as a war zone.

And like the little mischievous boy he was he came across something did peak his interest.

Glynda: We're you serious about having Amber stay here at the academy for a 'prolonged time'?

Ozpin: Yes I am. We cannot risk her safety, not when it was luck that saved her.

Glynda: And by 'luck' do you mean that young man who killed Sion?

'Hey that's me!' Hector thought to himself before continuing to read.

Ozpin: Yes, but letting him leave is a better choice than Amber. She still has much to learn, especially since he was able to spot an illusion from a good distance away according to her.

Glynda: Very well sir.

Though it ended their he knew Glynda wanted to say more but sadly she was smart enough to take the conversation in person. That's when Hector decided to read the messages of the good ol' general Ironwood.

Most messages were simple and short or just the two headmasters catching up every now and then but Hector had to give credit where credit was due since whenever he thought he had something Ironwood would steer the question away and ultimately change the subject.

'Okay maybe he's not as dense as I thought...this isn't good. I need something anything.'
Hector thought worridly as his trip to Beacon might as well been for nothing. He stepped away from the table before putting the scroll in his pocket.

'I need more time to think.'

Going to the living room Hector turned on the TV to see his little fireworks show being the center of attention.

"Lisa Lavander here at one of the temporary walls leading towards the now Grimm infested Beacon Academy where a few Grimm managed to pass through..."

It then showed the both smoking body of the Grimm and the wall which Hector was glad the Vale guards were competent enough to fight off the Grimm but knew it could've been worse if a Goliath was nearby.
Though Hector was frustrated at finding nothing about the Maidens in Ozpin's desk there was still another plan he was watching unfold.

"Though the cause of the breach points to be Grimm many now in the online forums have turned their attention to both council woman Victoria Phoenix who is in charge of Vale's security."
