RWBY: Trial of the Gods

"So, you wish to change the fate of the World? To erase the damage caused by Salem and the mistakes of Ozpin? Very well, Mortal, we shall grant you this chance. But to do so, you must face many of our trials, earn our gifts and end this bloodshed once and for all. So, Commands the Gods of Remnant!"

Due to episode 3 of Season 6 - The Lost Fable. Watch it on Rooster Teeth before reading this. I have gone back and edited a lot of my stories because of it...oh boy that is a lot to handle. I will also be editing the first few chapters of this story as well. Reread chapters 1 & 2 before reading this one.

Chapter V: Trial by Fire

Fire is one of the primordial elements that make up our world. Its flames bring light and life to all living creatures when tamed, but also death and destruction when set loose. It is one of the hardest and most powerful elements to control in the world of Remnant. Jaune stared at the man before him as he stood in what he could only assume was the realm of fire. The man before him grinning with a confident smile as Jaune said…

"…Um…who are you?" the man flinched before he slumped his shoulders.

"Oh, come on, not you too! Why does everyone not recognise me when I am in my human form? It's me, Ignis! The God of Fire!" Jaune blinked as he compared the red-haired man to the tall fiery being, he met a month ago. He had the personality of the God, maybe?

"Uh…sorry, I just didn't expect you to look so…human?" the God chuckled at this as he swept his long red hair back.

"Yeah, I guess I can see your point. Us Gods don't normally wear our human forms like this, but I figured you'd rather talk with someone more to your level then constantly looking up my tunic?" Jaune didn't say anything as the man was still taller than him. But at least he wasn't gargantuan.

"Fair point…so, I guess this is your dimension or something?" Ignis clicked his fingers as he smiled.

"Bingo, Kid. This is my dimension and the source of all fire in exitance. Like how Light had his Pool of Life, and Darkness had had his pit of Darkness, it is here that I forged the very first star in the sky. Where I crafted the flames that would brighten and warm the earth from a cold existence…plus I like to see it as my pad, you know for the ladies." He wiggled his eyebrows as Jaune gave the God a deadpan stare.

"…Really?"

"…No not really, it's hard to date when you're related to most of them."

He shook his head as he waved his hands and the orange hue of the dimension slowly faded. "In any case let us begin your trial. Unfortunately, stuff like this comes with formalities, which I am not a big fan of, so bear with me." Jaune nodded as the God of Fire closed his eyes before opening them again.

Jaune nearly stumbled as the man opened them to reveal his eyes burning like the sun and a powerful aura surrounded the man. With two horns of flames springing from his forehead.

"Chosen Champion of the Gods. Here before you stand I, Ignatius of the Flames, God of Fire and creator of the Sun in the Heavens. Through my trial, you must overcome the flames that burn and light your world to harness the element of fire. Should you succeed the power of fire will be at your command. Fail…and the flames will consume you and send your soul to the pits of Tartarus. Do you understand?" his voice massive in volume spoke with a level of seriousness and command that almost betrayed the fun going man that Jaune had met.

Jaune nodded as Ignis summoned a ball of white flames in hands. He shot it out to the centre of the dimension, far from Jaune and Ignis as it floated upon a pedestal of stone that rose from the flame.

"Retrieve the flame that you see, and my gift shall be yours to command."

Jaune looked between the flame and the God before nodding and walk towards the flame. But before he took even one step a massive wall of fire shot up from the earth and forced him back. The flames were massive and bright as the very heat caused him to back away. He looked back to the Fire God as his eyes returned to their normal red hue.

"Didn't think it was going to be that easy, did you?" he spoke with no cocky attitude or joking nature. "These are Flames of Truth, one of my most power flames forged from the sun itself. They will know if you have found the true meaning of the Flames. The only way for you to pass this trial is by going through these flames and retrieving the power inside." Jaune looked at the tall flames and the white orb in the centre.

He reached towards the wall of fire to touch the flames and instantly recoiled in pain as the tips of his fingers burned. "That seems a bit much, don't you think?" The god of Fire merely shrugging his shoulders.

"Eh, this is how the trials have always been. Spirits usually have to think of a way to overcome my flames in order to ascend to the next trial. Most of them don't even make it that far." He spoke in memory of the many wannabe spirits that wished to ascend.

"But since you're human you have a tougher time, being all fleshy and stuff." Jaune nodded as he looked at the flames. "Though I'll give you a hint, no penalties and because I like you." He turned back as the man pointed to his eyes.

"How you interpret the true purpose of fire, is how you will succeed. That's all I can give you. Good luck."

He disappeared in a burst of flames as Jaune looked confused before turning back to the wall of fire. He looked around to see if there was some form of a gap in between the flames that would grant him access to the gift he sought. But as he continued to walk around the flame, he realized that it was never-ending. It just continued to stretch across the plain, no matter how far he continued to run. He sighed as he steeled himself.

"Okay, finding a way around won't work. So, I just need to go right through it, it can't be that hard right?" he stood before the flame as his aura shimmered with his semblance. "If I increase my natural defence, I should be able to make it through with only a few small burns." He stepped forward to walk into the flame.

He didn't even get his whole arm in before the flames burned away at his aura and burnt his flesh.

"GAH!" he screamed falling to the floor, his righting hand smoking and flaming as he held his wrist. "GAH! WHAT THE FUCK?!" he clutched his hand as third-degree burns covered the entirety of his hand's flesh. Boiling blisters and brunt flesh present on his skin as he cried out in pain. "ARGH!" he screamed with small tears in his eyes.

He flooded his aura into his hand as the burns slowly began to heal away. But burns still sent pain down his arm as he held his wrist. After he managed to calm his nerves he looked down at his shaking hand and at the flames that caused his pain.

"What the hell!? It just ate right through my aura!" he hissed as he looked at his blistering and red hand. His semblance kicking into overdrive as the skin slowly faded back to its undamaged state. "Okay, so walking through it is a no go…think, 'How you interpret the true purpose of fire, is how you will succeed.' How I interpret fire?" he looked to the flames and thought about fires nature.

Fire was destructive, unrelenting, it burned anything in its path and left nothing in its wake. Fire was destruction, Fire was unforgiving, Fire was uncontrollable. A brief memory of Pyrrha flashed through his mind and Cinder's smirking face as she burnt her to a crisp. Fire was…death.

He slowly walked towards the flames with this mindset as he placed his hand into the flames. At first, nothing happened as he walked more into the fire…only to scream as the flames quickly consumed him.

He screamed and hollered as the fires burnt at his flesh and singed his skin. He jumped from the flames as he rolled around on the floor. His nerves burning away, and his skin dissolving into ash as he screamed in absolute terror and pain.

Unbeknownst to him, the Gods watched from their realm as the boy once again tried to break through the barrier.

"This is pointless." The God of Darkness spoke as he glared at the child. "There is no way he can pass the trial of Fire. No matter what he tries he will never understand the true mean of fire. His kind sees it as nothing more than a tool of destruction. They've always been that way and that is how they shall remain."

"Give him a chance, Darkness. This is only his first trial after all. It is to be expected of him to struggle." Aquarius argued while Ignis nodded.

"Yeah come on bro, he's the first human to ever attempt this, he may just surprise us. I think the kid will do it." Ignis stated before Light shook his head.

"We once believed our creation held much promise. But time and time again they've only proven to be stuck in their own ways…" Light looked sadly at the struggling boy. "I fear that he too is cursed to stay that way."

"Do not be so hasty, sons," Chronos spoke as they turned to him. "There is much more to that boy then you realise, or have you truly lost all faith in your own creations?" the brothers said nothing as they turned back to the view. "Now…let us see what he shall do next."

Team JNPR's Room

Pyrrha stared out the window as the shattered form of their moon hung over their heads. Its gentle light glowing over the silent city as her gaze changed from the moon to the empty bed beside her. Its sheets undisturbed as its occupant was gone for the night. She sighed as she fiddled with the pencil in her hands. Her pencil tapping against the notebook on her desk, with a rhythmic and impatient beat.

"Sighing's not going to fix anything," she turned to Nora as she lay on her bed with her headphones around her neck and her comic in hands. "Seriously, I can hear you through these! And they're soundproof!" She gestured to the headphones as if to prove her point.

"Sorry, I just…I just wonder what's taking Jaune so long? He should've been back from Ozpin's office by now. I wonder what's been keeping him?"

"The headmaster probably has his reasons," Ren spoke from his bed as he meditated. "Jaune is after all his new apprentice, we shouldn't be surprised that the Ozpin is going to keep him busy. The thing I want to know is what has happened to our leaders…personality." the two girls stared in confusion.

"What do you mean?"

"Have you two noticed that ever since the cafeteria Jaune has been acting differently from before? Not just his grades that have been improving, but the way he holds himself is vastly different from before then. There's no hesitation or doubts in his voice when he speaks like he used to, he stance is more rigid and reformed like those you see off harden veterans and he seems more confident and no longer second-guesses his choices." The girls nodded a bit as they too had noticed that.

"Also, since then he hasn't bothered to ask out Weiss once. He even stopped calling her 'Snow Angel' which is odd considering he has a crush on her." Pyrrha lightly grumbled at this.

"Yeah, I noticed that too. I also noticed that he seems to be a little more flirtatious with our fellow champion here, eh Pyrrha?" Nora grinned as the red-haired champion blushed at this. "If I didn't know any better, I'd say he may have figured out your crush on him?" that sent a bolt of lightning to the girl's chest as her heart hammered rapidly.

"W-What?! N-no Jaune's just being…friendly! Yes, that's it! There's no he could've figured out I have a crush on him!? …right?" she asked with doubt, but a small hint of hope in her voice.

"You do have to admit that he's been treating you differently since the incident. I can't describe it, but the way he looks at you…it's like he's happy that you're here in his life.

"Not to mention when he thinks no one is looking he has this…far away look in his eyes. Almost like he knows something. What it is I don't know." The three stared at each other before they looked at the lone bed and wondered what was going on with their leader.

Ignis Realm – Trial of Fire

The flames slowly died down as he lay on the floor, his breath ragged and his skin flayed as he lay curled on the floor. His fingers twitched and his shook with pain before his aura slowly healed over the burnt flesh. He could feel his aura draining away with each attempt he made to push through the barrier. Time had lost all meaning to him as he could not remember how long he had been in this place.

A day? A month? A Year? He could no longer tell.

"…Argh…Come on…" he grunted as he moved to his side. "Get up…Get up…" he pushed himself to stand even as his body trembled. "I'm not…I'm not done yet." He stood on shaky legs as he walked over to the flames.

His hands barely brushing against the flames before his skin began to burn and he screamed in pain. Clutching his rest and releasing a myriad of curses from his mouth that could make a sailor blush and earn a right smack in the ear if his mother ever heard him.

"FUCK! SON OF A BITCH! GAH!" he clutched his hand as the skin grew back. He hissed and gasped as his skin grew back for the umptieth time, starring at the pink and newly grown flesh before he curled his hand into a fist and cursed.

"Fuck! Fuck! FUCK! This is fucking impossible! 'Find the true meaning of fire?!' I'll tell you what the true meaning of fire is! It's nothing but trouble!" he yelled as he looked up to the void. "All it has ever done is take everything from me! My home! My family! My friends! And the only God damn person that actually believed I could be anything more than a failure! Fire only consumes! Fire only takes! Fire only kills! That all it does!" his yells echoing out as he dropped to his knees.

He held his head low as he felt the warm flames surge and shutter behind him. He took a deep breath as he finally allowed his nerves to cool and his emotions to settle.

"Okay, okay, got that out of my system. Let's think, there has to be a way to beat this trial it's not impossible. Others have done it, so it's within reason that I should be able to do it too…granted this trial is only meant for immortal beings, but that's beside the point." He looked back to the flames as he stared at the massive wall.

"Think, Ignis said… 'How you interpret the true purpose of fire, is how you will succeed'…but what does that mean? What can you interpret fire as?" he looked at his hands as the pain from the burns still lingered on his palms. "In my former life, Fire has only ever taken from me. It's burned the word, my friends and everyone I've ever loved. Fire is destruction, fire leaves nothing but ash. That's all there is…"

He blinked as something inside him triggered and he remembered something from long ago.

Years Ago – Gilded Arc

"Argh!" A small boy came rushing back into the house as he held his burnt hand. "Mummy!" the small child cried out as he ran towards a woman, presumably his mother.

"Oh, my goodness! Jaune! What happened!?" the woman asked as the boy held his red hand.

"I-I was helping dad with the firepit for the BBQ! A-And I went to help pick up the tongs and the stupid metal burned me!" he cried as held up his slightly red hand before the woman picked up the small six-year-old.

"There, there Jaune. Let's get this under some cold water." She said as she brought the boy over to the tap and poured cold water over his burnt hand. Small tears still lingered around his eyes as the water stung the burn.

"You have to be really careful Jaune, fire isn't something children should be playing with. You could seriously hurt yourself." She scolded the boy slightly before she placed a rag full of ice over his hand.

"I-I am sorry, mum. I hate fire! It's stupid! Why do we even need it? All it does it hurt!" he complained as the woman giggled at his pouting face.

"Now that's not fair Jaune. Fire isn't fully responsible for your burn. Yes, it did burn you, but fire isn't all that bad. In fact, without fire, we wouldn't be here today." The boy looked confused as she smiled and pointed to the sky outside her window.

"What do you see out there?"

"The sky?"

"Yes, and what's in the sky right now?"

"…The clouds?" she chuckled as she pointed to the bright ball in the sky.

"No silly, the sun." he looked confused as she placed the boy on her lap. "See Jaune, the sun is really a big ball of fire. Its light shines upon the world with its glow and lets us see what's around us, without it, we would all be really cold right now. Fire is also what we use to cook our food and lights our way in the darkness." She then pointed to his chest. "Not only that, but legends say that the Gods placed a little bit of fire inside of each and every one of us. To help us stay warm and alive and shine against the monsters." She smiled brightly that warmed his heart.

"So, you see Jaune, fire isn't just bad…Fire is also a part of life."

Tiny Jaune stared before he tilted his head in confusion. "I don't get it?" she chuckled.

"I'll explain it one day when you're older. No, come on, let's go see what your father is up to. Knowing him he's probably burnt the food by now, huh?" she chuckled as the boy giggled as well before the memory faded.

Jaune stared at his hand as he smiled softly at the warm memory before when closed his fist. He slowly stood up as he breathed in a calming breath. His mother's words and the words of Ignis floated around his mind as he thought about the trial and the meaning of fire's existence.

Fire for as long as he had been alive had always been there. It had hurt him, it had burned everyone it ever came in contact with, it had destroyed everything he had ever loved and was used by the one he despised the most. But it had also lighted his way in the darkest times, kept him warm in the coldest of nights and defended him from the beasts of Grimm.

Fire had always been a part of his life.

'Fire… isn't necessarily evil' he thought before he stood up as he looked at the towering flames and closed his eyes. 'Fire…was never evil' to begin with' he took a step forward as held his hand towards the flames. 'Fire had no control of the Cinder's actions, fire isn't destruction…' he placed his hand into the flame.

'Fire…is a part of life'

For a moment he expected to feel the blistering pain he had experienced for the millionth time, but instead, he felt a gentle warmth as he opened his eyes to see his hand perfectly intact. He marvelled as he waved his hand on the flames. He slowly stepped into the flames as he passed harmlessly through the inferno. He stepped more into the fire as he spotted the white ball of fire in the centre. He reached out as he grabbed the orb and the whole realm was illuminated in a bright light.

The wall of fire surged and raged before it started to wrap itself around his arms. He closed his eyes when the light became too bright. When it faded, he stared in awe as his arms were glowing with a bright orange hue that slowly faded into a pair of gauntlets.

The Gauntlets were gold in colour, similar to that of ancient warriors with sharp claws and streams of magma glowing between the gaps. On the back of the palms were two flames like metal patterns and orange gems in the centre of the flames.

"Whoa…" Jaune muttered as he flexed the clawed gauntlets.

"Congratulations kid!" he spun around as Ignis reappeared before the boy and laughed. "You did it! You figured out the true meaning of the test and passed the Trial of Fire! Oh man, you should've seen the looks on Light and Dark's face! It was priceless!" he laughed he notched the boy just staring at him and he cough into his hands.

"Right sorry, regal time. Congratulations Mortal, you have passed the Trial of Fire, understood the true meaning of fire and earned my power…. You see, it was never my intention to create fire as a Destructive element. I created it to bring warmth and comfort to the cold abyss of the Universe. But in my haste, I never realised how fragile the universe truly was and it became known as a destructive force." He hung his head as the world became one of ash.

"So many of your kind held anger towards my fire and began to see it as either a curse or a tool for war. So many creations were destroyed by mine and I started regretted ever creating." Jaune looked around as the history of Fire's abuse played out before him. He hung his head and curled his fist when it showed it being wielded by Cinder and using it against his partner.

"But I later learned that even though fire can destroy creations…" he gestured to the ground as from the ashes a small plant began to grow. "It allows for the possibility of something beautiful to flourish." the small plant became a flower before blooming and scattering to the wind.

"Fire wasn't meant to be destruction…Fire is just life."

He smiled softly before looking to the boy and gestured to the gauntlets. "And now you wear the Solaris Gauntlets – The Power of the Sun. They were forged in the heart of the very Sun that lights your sky by myself and my uncle Hephaestus, the God of the Forge. With these, you will have the power to control and manipulate the element of fire and all matter relating to heat. Including that of my crystallised blood. Use it wisely" Jaune nodded before he blinked at this.

"Wait, your crystallised blood?" he nodded.

"Yes, you will be able to control all elements of Fire Dust, the crystallization of my lifeblood."

"Are you telling me that Dust…is your blood?"

"Well, Fire Dust is the crystallization of my blood. The other elements came from my mother, father, brothers and sisters when we fought long ago." He notched the boy's immense confusion. "Oh right, you humans don't know. You fight against the Grimm, right?" Jaune nodded. "What do you think we Gods fought?"

Jaune looked confused as Ignis looked up.

"It's a long story, one that I'm not much of a storyteller. But let's just say there was an ancient-battle-aeons ago, and the result of that battle was our blood was shed upon your world. We won, but due to it soaking the earth and after centuries our blood crystallised and became the element of Dust that your kind mine and use. Your kind is literally harnessing the power of the Gods." Jaune stumbled a little at that realization.

"That's…insane." Ignis chuckled a little.

"Yeah tell me about it,"

"But…what were you fighting to cause that much bloodshed?" he asked as he thought about how much Dust there was on the earth and the implications of such a Godly battle. Ignis' face slowly morphed into a serious one as he rubbed at his side.

"Let's just say there are some battles…you don't ever want to see, kid." He shook his head as he clapped his hands. "Anyway, off the depressing topic. So, you can control and produce near unlimited amount of fire from those gauntlets. Even able to redirect and absorb fire from attackers. Will work well against that fire tainting, no good, abusing son of a bit-! Sorry about that." Ignis stopped himself as he apologised.

"You also gain increased resistance to fire and heat. But you can't create a fire if there is no oxygen in the air. Oxygen is the fuel for all fires after all. And don't overuse them, you're mortal after all and these were meant for a God. If you overexert yourself, you run the risk of burning yourself maybe even killing yourself. It will be almost the same with all the gifts. But given time you may be able to overcome this, understand?" Jaune nodded as he flexed his fingers.

"I will…oh, um, how do I?"

"Summon and un-summon them?" Jaune nodded. "Just imagine a rising sun and holding it in your hands and they will appear. Imagine the sun setting, and it will disappear."

"It is time to tell you about your next trial. It will take place in a few weeks and will be hosted by my darling sister Aquarius." As if on cue, the Goddess of Water appeared.

"I can announce my own trial, Ignis." She scolded as the fiery God nodded.

"Sorry, sis,"

"But yes child, your next trial will be mine. In two week's time, you must venture out to the centre of the Ocean. Between the Islands of Sanus and Anima. There, your trial of the Water God shall begin." She spoke with a commanding tone, as Ignis stepped forward and patted the boy on the shoulder.

"Good luck kid, you're going to need it."

And in a flash of light Jaune disappeared from the void and found himself in the forest. The tree no longer on fire, but perfectly fine. The Solaris Gauntlets glowing against the night sky as he stared at them before imagining a setting sun and they disappeared.

"Well, that was an experience. I wonder how long I was gone for. I started this thing at 9, and I feel like I was in that place for hours. So, I'm guessing the time is…" his eyes widened. "9:05? What the hell? I could've sworn I was in there for more than five minutes-! …oh, God of Time, right. Probably made the dimensions exist outside of time or something like that…." he sighed as he shook his head.

"I am too old for this shit." He texted Ozpin to meet him in the vault as he had much to discuss.

And to test out his new powers.

Beacon Vault

The elevator softly hummed as Jaune stood in the corner of the elevator. His eyes staring at the slowly passing numbers as he waited for the lift to reach the underground vault. The secret hiding place for the Relic of Choice. Of course, the actual Vault was the Relic was hidden was inside the Vault and only the Maiden of Fall could unlock it. To this day he still didn't fully understand why Vale's vault was different from the other vaults, but that didn't matter to him.

What mattered to him right now was that he had passed the first Trial. He had acquired the powers of the God of Fire and was one step closer to bringing this whole war to an end. But despite this victory, he still feared the possibility that he would fail the next test. That he would fail in restoring mankind, keeping his friends alive and preventing the horrible future that he had experienced.

He didn't care that his soul would be cast into hell for all eternity. All he cared about was that his friends got the second chance they deserved, not the fate they got.

The elevator chimed as the doors opened and he walked into the large halls of the vault. His footsteps echoing out as he walked the long stretch until he made it to the end of the hall. His eyes glanced over to the small arrangement of furniture and personal effects that were brought in to make Amber more comfortable after she had regained consciousness.

Said woman was over in the corner in her wheelchair. Her mood still hadn't changed as she was still dealing with the fact that she was now stuck in a wheelchair for the rest of her life.

Ozpin sat stood behind her as he looked sadly at the woman, feeling responsible for her condition. Jaune sighed as he managed to get the man's attention,

"Ah, Mister Arc. Welcome back." Amber turned into the direction of Jaune as a small bit of life returned to her eyes. "I would be right in assuming you being here means that you've passed the first trial?"

"Yeah, I passed. But I've got to tell you what if that what it takes to pass them, I am going to need a lot more training if I want to pass all of them. But I got to say, the reward…" he imaged a rising sun in his hands as his arms glowed and the Solaris Gauntlets took shape. "Totally worth it."

Ozpin and Amber stared in a slight mixture of awe of trepidation as they stared at the glowing gauntlets that looked as if they lined with magma.

"That…that is incredible Mister Arc. And here I'd thought I'd seen all kinds of Relics and magical objects. And yet the universe continues to surprise me." Jaune nodded as he turned them over and observed them. "Well, I think it is safe to assume that you will need training in order to wield those gauntlets, correct?"

"Yeah, every gift I get from the Gods, I have to learn how to control them. Otherwise, these things could kill me."

"Then I suggest we get started. Let us see how powerful these gifts are." Jaune raised an eyebrow as he looked to the man.

"Wait, you want to start right now and here of all places? Are you sure?" he asked as the man nodded.

"Of course, Mister Arc. I designed these Vaults to be almost impervious and able to contain the power of the Relics. Besides, we can't afford to bring Salem's attention to new magical items brought into the world. This should be a fine spot to master your new abilities." He reassured as Jaune nodded and turned to face the east side of the vault. Out of the way of Ozpin and Amber as he pulled back his fist and felt a sudden course of power resonating inside the gauntlet as he thrust his fist forward.

What happened next literally blew him off their feet as a massive ball of fire, far large then any ball of Fire that Cinder or even Salem had ever produced was launched from the gauntlets and practically incinerated several pillars into molten slag as the fireball slammed into the wall and shook the whole school.

"What the hell was that?!" Yang asked no one in particular as she and everyone else looked around in confusion as they felt the whole school shake.

Thick black smoke covered the vault as Jaune, Amber and Ozpin could only stare bug-eyed at the molten slag and shining glass that left in its wake as a massive crater of glass imprinted the far-off wall. Ozpin and Amber gaped at the damage while Jaune turned back to face them as the gauntlet smoked slightly and they stared in fear of the God of Fire's gift.

"…Mister Arc."

"…Yeah, Oz?"

"…I believe it would be best if we trained inside the actual Vault of Choice, yes?" Jaune nodded his head.

"…Y-Yeah. That's a good idea."

And Scene. Well after a long, long, long time. Here is the Proper Chapter V of Trial of the Gods. Sorry for the long wait, I had so much going on in my life and I only now have time to write my stories for you all. I am on my Uni break so I should be able to write more and update stories like this, as well as Restart, Remnant and Haki. Might also introduce a few new stories, but they are only in the development stage and am more focused on my popular and most request ones that I have interest in.

Also, what do you think about my theory of Dust being the crystallised remnants of the Gods blood? It would be a cool concept and in the show apparently the Gods of Light and Dark thought each other, it's possible when gods bleed they leave behind Dust.

This is subject to change if it is stated otherwise in the show, but until then it is the blood of my Fictional Gods.

So, tell me what you think of Jaune's trial and any suggestions for the future trials and what they should be about relating to both Jaune and the Element he is about to master. Next chapter will be a gear updating one, as I feel Jaune needs to update his equipment and master the Solaris Gauntlets, also name suggestions for future gifts would be appreciated with a Review. So, Stay tuned for next time in…

Chapter VI: of Gauntlets and Armour
