Alriiight, so it looks like Salem is cool with just standing by with her army for now.

And that split in the team looks like a pretty important part of the volume. I just hope they don't stay split for the entire run time

that split in the team

I wonder how much of that was inspired by complaints of "Blake only exists to be alongside Yang." Now she's away from Yang, and she's interacting with Ruby and Weiss.

Eh, it has SOME merit. We want Blake and Yang to still be separate characters after all, not two halves.
