The viewing lightened up to reveal a large, lush, green forest with tall trees, accompanied by the sound of birds chirping.

"Didn't I say it? Waste of time." Nori spoke up.

"That's true enough!" Gloin hollered in agreement.

The dwarves and Ozpin were shown moving between the trees of the forest, the wizard of the group riding on a horse while the others rode upon ponies—whom some of their packs and bags were saddled on.

They were quite on their way out of Shire, having already left the  homestead of Roman Torchwick. As they continued to campy ride along their path, a few of the dwarves bantered with each other on how the plan to get Roman to join them had seemingly failed.

"Use a hobbit." Nori quoted. "Whose idea was it anyway?"

"Looks like most of the dwarves are a little cross that Torchwick didn't join up with them." James pointed out.

"It's hard to say that it isn't warranted." Glynda added in her own two cents. "They're all on a quest to take back their home, and they travelled all the way to get some more help, only to be turned down. Not to mention that they don't have any advanced form of travel, meaning that their trip to the Hobbiton set them back a bit."

"I just find it funny that all the dwarves are on ponies." Nora said as she giggled a bit at the sight.

"Well, given their stature, it does make sense." Pyrrha said, though even she found the sight to be a little amusing. In a cute fashion.

"So... we obviously missed quite a bit, here." Emerald spoke up, clearly wanting to know what was going on.

"Talk about an understatement. The General of Atlas is a dwarf with long hair, and Headmaster Ozpin is wearing a pointy hat with a long beard, robes, and a staff." Mercury pointed out. "I mean, what is he, a wizard?"

"Mhmm." Blake hummed in response to Mercury's question, nodding her head.

"And this universe has something to do with... Roman Torchwick?" Cinder spoke carefully with a raised brow.

"Believe me, we were just as confused as you when he saw it." Yang told Cinder.

"I see." Cinder said with a hum. "Do you mind divulging on what we missed?"

"Oh, sure." Ruby said with her ever so sweet smile, something that inwardly irked Cinder. "Let's see... uh, Torchwick is about to go on a quest with a bunch of dwarves, and a wizard Ozpin, to take back a mountain that the dwarves lost to large dragon named Smaug. There was a dinner party, and singing, and Torchwick running from his home like an excited kid so that he could join up with Ozpin and the dwarves."

"Huh." Mercury uttered out his reply with a more even look.

"Did you really just compare me to a kid?" Roman called out to Ruby, though she gave no reply to him.

Cinder, who had listened in on the whole of Ruby's summary, tilted her head in intrigue towards one particular detail from the explanation. "A dragon, you say? An actual dragon?"

"Mhmm." This time Yang replied to Cinder. "And he was a mean one too. We saw Smaug destroy an entire city with his fire breath alone. He was even covered in a bunch of red scales that would give Grimm armor a run for their lien."
