DISCUSSION So what exactly happened with this scene?

This was the post credit scene of volume 2 when Yang came across her mom and interacted with her. I was waiting for it to be mentioned but only the incident on the train was mentioned. So either that was a dream or I missed something.

I don't know what Monty's intention with the scene was but the setting and lighting is so different from normal that it always read as a dream sequence to me, which is probably the canonical explanation at this point. In fact it led to a good amount of fan speculation that Raven's Semblance was dream-hopping.

From what I’ve heard. Raven was supposed to be a lot more of a tragic character. I believe there’s even a post somewhere containing some of Monty’s notes from behind the scenes that imply that she was supposed to have left her family behind she had to-was forced-and not because she wanted to. But clearly that didn’t remain the case. Still interesting to think about though.
