In Salem's Domain, Cinder trains under Salem's guidance in using her Fall Maiden powers against the Grimm. Just as she kills the last Grimm, she falls to her knees, breathing heavily.
Salem: Enough.
She walks forward while Cinder continues to struggle for normal breathing.
Salem: I thought you were the girl who wanted power. Did you lie to me?
Cinder winces on the force of Salem's question before looking upward. Turning to face Salem, Cinder clearly shakes her head negatively.
Salem: Then stop holding back. If you wish to master your new powers, you must -
Salem is cut off by the sound of heavy doors opening. On the opposite end of the stone hall, a sobbing Tyrian enters. He falls to his knees once in the room, both hands flat on the floor and his head bowed.
Tyrian: I'm sorry. She'll forgive me. Pleeeease.
Tyrian bows again on the last word.
Tyrian: Forgive me...
Salem: Tyrian!
She stands before him. He raises his body but remains sitting on his legs while Cinder rises from the stone floor behind Salem.
Salem: Your task - were you successful?
Tyrian: N-no.
Cinder's eye widens. Salem also looks surprised for a moment before narrowing her eyes and walking away. Cinder watches their leader for her further reaction without looking at Tyrian. He starts begging as he turns his body to remain facing Salem
Tyrian: But-but hope is not lost! My tail, my stinger... I-I poisoned him, Qrow! The boy too! They will not be a nuisance to you any longer, no... no longer! I've done that...
As soon as Tyrian said the part he had wounded you, Salem's eyes glowed eerily in anguish as she sharply turned her head towards jher subordinate, making Tyrian shiver in fear.
Salem: Haven't I specifically ordered you not to touch the boy?! And where is my apprentice?!
Tyrian: He was in the way of my mission, my lady. As for the girl, she just.... disappeared. We were separated when we fought them. I---
Salem merely raises her hand, and it was enough to halt Tyrian from speaking.
Salem: The last eye is blinded, you disobeyed a direct order, and most importantly: You left my apprentice behind... you greatly disappoint me.
Salem leaves. Tyrian falls forward, wailing in despair. A Beowolf approaches, all focused on Tyrian's negative emotions. It ignores Cinder and leaps upon him. Tyrian sends it away with a single blow and it lands on its back. Still wailing, Tyrian opens his weapons and leaps atop the Beowolf. He slashes at it repeatedly, tears streaming down his face. His wails gradually turn into a more sadistic and psychotic laughter as he vents his grief into the butchering of the Grimm. Cinder watches, horrified.
-----Meanwhile-----
Outside their house, Yang, without her bionic arm, approaches her wine-haired friend, who is already prepared and geared up for her journey towards Anima. Claire gets on her motorcycle and starts its engine, and sees Yang walking to her.
Claire: Hey, Yang. Here to see me off?
Yang: Yeah, pretty much.
Claire: And where's your arm?
