...wait—

Still, who knows what [Ozpin] may have hidden from us over the years.

in v7, qrow raises the possibility that ozpin may still be hiding something from them ( and that it likely has nothing to do with summer's last mission ).

then, in v8, we get this exchange between salem and oscar:

If I know my Ozma, he has used some means of deception to hide [the Beacon Relic's] location differently than the others. I need to know where it is.

I... That's not something I know about.

Of course. He would keep that one guarded as long as possible.

so, besides knowing ozpin made the relic at beacon "a bit more challenging" to find than at the other schools—and we have some level of comparison to be made here, as the haven vault had extra security in the elevator being only accessible with lionheart's pocket watch, so whatever ozpin did with the beacon vault, it needs to be more challenging than that—he's definitely keeping secrets so important related to it that not even his closest allies know about it.

...whatcha hiding oz? 👀

#...wait x2 #is this why ozpin was so surprised raven would tell yang and weiss about the bird thing?#bc raven and qrow are his additional security keys?#do salem and her forces even *know* that the shapeshifting is something ozpin gifted them?#like......#qrow's semblance is something he can easily hide #so they might just think the bird thing *is* his semblance #and raven's semblance is literal portals #which would explain how she gets from one point to another so quickly #and if you don't know it's based around bonds you might just think she can portal anywhere whenever she wants #+ qrow is the only one to bird around the villains #while raven hasn't ( if you discount leo that is )#i was supposed to connect dots with raven and choice yet here i am doing this #( there is thought interesting dialogue parallels between the widor in the indecisive king and raven in the more the merrier )#( just leaving that here if i never get back into it )
