    Summary

    Ruby Rose is 15. She's about to start her first year at Beacon Academy, training to be a Huntress, which is the only thing she's ever wanted to do with her life. She makes new friends and new enemies; begins learning more about herself, her family, and the shape of the world; and after one week, she has far more new questions than answers.

    How does magic work?
    What happened to destroy the World That Was and create Remnant?
    Who is Mommy Dearest, and what does she have to do with Headmaster Ozpin?
    What's this Old Soul thing people keep talking about, and what does it have to do with Ruby?
    Why is everyone always so cryptic all the time?

    And then there's the *hard* questions:
    How do I deal with my sister's jealousy and issues with her mom?
    What do I do when my sister's team leader is racist and terrible?
    Is it a good idea to become an apprentice witch?

    At least *some* questions still have easy answers, though. Ex: 'What do we do with bullies?
    Punch them in the face and then tell the deputy headmistress you'd do it again, obviously
