User blog:Tsubori/Blake and Adam backstory

Hello, with this, my first blog, I am going to analyse the lyrics of "From shadows" and make a prediction on the possibility of Blake and Adam's history. First though, let's go on a tangent for a moment and visit Weiss.

Given the line in "Red Like Roses" that states "White is cold and always yearning, burdened by a royal test", also through the combination of Weiss' very formal, regal attire, those lyrics, and the symbol on Weiss being ALL over the cargo train, we can fairly easily assume that the Schnee family at the very least holds a massive prominence in a country, if they aren’t in fact, royalty.

Now, with that said, let’s get into the events of the black trailer. Blake and Adam break into a train, searching for something, and Adam clearly has no regard for the lives on board. The easiest way to sum this up is that it’s a terrorist attack. But why would they do this? Well, if my theory is correct, it’s because Adam and Blake are ex-slaves of the Schnee family.

For this, we have to look at the lyrics to “From shadows”. So here we go.

Lines like:

 “Born with no life....into subjugation

Treated like a worthless animal

Stripped of all rights

Just a lesser being

Crushed by cruel ruthless human rule”

This implies that they could have been perhaps born into slavery or something. Additionally, that Weiss’ mum and dad may not be the nicest individuals ever.

“Take back what you stole

From shadows

We'll reclaim our destiny

Set our future free”

These seem to imply that Adam and Blake broke out, and seek revenge. Or at least, Adam seems to want revenge. That said, we’ve yet to see how much presence they have. They could have amassed an army of ex-slaves to start a revolution, as is somewhat implied through the last few lines referring to rising up. Or they could be solitary terrorists, but only time will tell.
