He'd known his time as Ozpin had to end, sooner or later, but he'd hoped he had more TIME. That was always the way, wasn't it?  Not enough time to do everything he wanted to do before his mortality caught up to him.  There was so much he'd wanted to do, to try to help his team prepare for what was coming.  But at the same time, even HE didn't know WHEN anything would happen.  All he could do was prepare them for the fact that Salem would be coming for the relics eventually.  

Things had started to move forward much sooner than he'd anticipated.  At least this time, he'd made sure to have an inner circle in place, a group of people he could rely on, who knew his secret.  As soon as he connected to his newest like-minded soul, they could get right back into planning their next steps to stop Salem.

There was a pang that went through him at the thought of her, the way it almost always did, even after all these years.  A part of him still hoped that he might be able to get through to her, but a much larger part of him knew that that was hopelessly optimistic, a vestige of an earlier time, when he'd given in to his own selfish wants, rather than setting himself on the task that the gods had given to him.

Of course, that was something he'd been trying to atone for......for quite some time, at this point.  And one of the only ways he knew how to do that was to do everything he could to keep Salem from the relics. Which was turning out to be much harder than he'd anticipated.
