Weiss uses some of the alcohol to set the cellar doors on fire, stopping more Apathy from following them, before she and Ruby drag Qrow out of the burning farmhouse. Yang, Blake and Maria head outside to get the motorcycle started while Ruby tries to get a belligerent Qrow to move. They emerge back in the farmhouse, where Qrow has fallen asleep at the bar. Maria, having seen Ruby's power, discovers she has silver eyes and manages to get Ruby to focus on protecting her friends and family, allowing her to unleash her full power, destroying the Apathy in the cellar and giving Yang the strength to open the door. Seeing her teammate in danger, Ruby unleashes her silver eye powers, giving the team enough energy to attempt to unlock the cellar door, but more Apathy appear. Maria discovers an exit they can use, but Blake finds herself unable to move as the Apathy start to converge on her. Maria arrives in time to get them moving, forcing them to run into what appears to be a wine cellar, where they face another horde. Her screams awaken the rest of her team from their stupor, only to be slowed by the Apathy's screech, which causes them to be nearly overcome by a wave of exhaustion. Just as Ruby spots the lamp, Maria discovers an illustration of that solution: a species of Grimm called "The Apathy", a whole horde of which Ruby finds right next to the lamp. She angrily refuses to leave it behind, so the rest of her team go down into the well with her while Oscar fixes the tire, Qrow goes to get more alcohol, and Maria keeps reading Bartleby's diaries.Īs team RWBY travels through the well, Maria finds references in Bartleby's journal to a potential solution to the farm's Grimm problem. However, something in the well startles her and causes her to drop the lamp. Ruby toys with the idea of throwing it down the well, but changes her mind.
Weiss Schnee brings up her previous reluctance to go to Atlas, which Yang Xiao Long and Blake Belladonna seize upon and encourage Ruby to just leave the Relic at the farms so Salem can never find it. Their departure from the farms is further slowed down by almost the entire group showing signs of exhaustion and Qrow's bad luck apparently causing one of the flatbed's tires to burst.
The team is slow to rise the next morning, with Ruby having to wake a very hungover Qrow up after he misses sunrise. Maria Calavera tells Oscar Pine the books she found are the journals of the owner of the household, Bartleby, who founded the settlement with some friends but faced the usual issue of Grimm, and they looked into schemes to make things easier. Ruby watches with concern as he drinks from a bottle of wine he found.
Qrow Branwen keeps watch and tells Ruby Rose he will wake them up before sunrise. Night falls on Brunswick Farms as the heroes prepare to sleep.
