Before you start reading the story, please read this first, it has nothing to do with the story but is important none the less.

I'm sure you have heard the news already. If not, then I regret to inform you that Monty Oum has passed away.

Monty was a man with an unbelievable amount of great talents and a phenomenal eye for visual design. His works as an animator are some of the best out there, RWBY included.

But he was not only an animator or designer, he was the father of one of the best series I have ever seen. RWBY is and probably will be my favorite show of all time and is an example of the ideas of a passionate and hardworking man brought to life.

It's in these dark times that the Rooster Teeth Community must stand its strongest, Monty's passing hit us all very deeply.

That's why I ask you all to go to TheBrokenBottle's post here on FanFiction about the matter, they propose a communal masterwork for RWBY. If you are at all interested, I suggest you go check it out. I don't you urge to do so, but if you want to volunteer, reply to TheBrokenBottle's or PM them.

RIP Monty, we will never forget you.
