Talk:Maidens/@comment-33502963-20171105155512

Have a few theories about this one:

One is that the Summer Maidens ARE the Silver-Eyed Warriors. After the Wizard bestowed the gifts to the Maidens, 'bout a thousand years later, a small village was under attack by Grimm. The Summer Maiden at the time used her powers to enialate the Grimm with just the look of an eye. The villagers thanked her and asked who she was, but she left without saying a word. The only quality they remembered about her was her Silver eyes. Not knowing what Maidens were at the time, they just nicknamed her "The Silver-Eyed Warrior" and it had remained like that for years.

I believe that Summer Rose was the Summer Maiden and was killed by Salem's group (NOTE: Hazel did say that he dealt with her kind before.)  and her powers passed to Ruby because she was in her thoughs last. Why did Salem kill her? Well that brings me to my next topic:

Salem IS a Maiden (preferrably Winter). She wanted to get Summer on her side so she can unlock the relic and change the world the way she wants, but Summer wasn't havin' that shit. So, unffortunately, was killed by Salem because she would just be a problem.

Salem being a Maiden could also explain the 2 missing seats in her office. She already has 2 Maidens (Herself and Cinder) now she needs 2 more, and those spots have a big fat SUMMER and SPRING labled on them.

Next theory: Maiden tattoos. I'm really backing this one up because it just makes hella sense. When Cinder stole Amber's power, she grew a tattoo, meaning it had something to do with being a Maiden. I think that the first time a Maiden rrecieves her power, she recieves a small mark to conform theiir power, and it gets bigger when the Maiden gets more used to her powers and experienced. That explains the giant tattoo on Vernal's arm and all those tattoos on Salem. So hopefully we will see some sort of tattoo on Ruby.
