So, right now with the revelation that Ozma and Salem had children together, everyone was quick to jump onto the idea that the four of them died during Ozma and Salem's clash. Others were just as quick to jump onto the idea that they survived, as we never saw their bodies and the closest we got to any confirmation of their fates was that sight of the plush dog turning to ash.

I'll be talking about the latter idea, that at least one of the daughters survived.

Now, the idea many have now is that with at least one of the daughters surviving, they want on to live their lives after escaping the carnage, eventually forming a family of their own, and making descendants down the line. Today, we're gonna take a look at some of the most popular theories as to who the descendants are.

The Original Maidens

As a way to both validate the World of Remnant short but also keep the idea of the Maiden's being relatives of Ozma, some like to theorize that the four sisters that helped Ozma as the Wizard were the descendents of his daughters, if not his daughters outright, and that is why he made them the maidens rather than just randomly making four kind girls into demigods.

Well, to start off, I'm outright debunking the idea of them being the daughters themselves. To start with, regardless of the validity of the WOR, it doesn't fit the timeline of Ozma's incarnations. Ozma's incarnation after the False God was shown to be a hermit struggling to move on, followed by a drunkard drinking more than Qrow does. The WOR has the Wizard be moved by the Sisters acts of kindness before he embued them with his powers. Considering by time Ozma became the settler, he had started to pull his life together, only for it to fall apart when he became the Inquisitor and he talked to Jinn. So, assumedly, the role of the Wizard came after the Inquisitor, at which point, his daughters would have long died from old age.

So, what about them being the descendents of one of the daughters? While possible, it doesn't really justify Ozma giving them the powers, as how would he reasonably be able to discern they were his daughters' descendents after meeting them. Instinctually? In addition, why didn't they already have access to magic, seeing as the eldest daughter was able to use magic, why wouldn't they? More than likely the sisters simply reminded him of his daughters, but weren't actually related to him.

Jaune Arc

Another theory making the rounds is that Jaune, and more broadly, the Arc Family, are descendents of Ozma and Salem.

One of the bigger reasons for this idea being Tyrian's seemingly random interest in Jaune back in Tipping Point . He never elaborates on why Jaune interests him, but some think its because of the resemblance Jaune has to a younger Salem, and the similarity between the Arc emblem and the symbol from Salem's Tower, something Tyrian would know thanks to his revering Salem as a goddess and probably knowing this info thanks to her.

Both Jaune and Salem are blonde fair skinned individuals with blue eyes. The Arc Symbol being a pair of crescents together, and the symbol in Salem's tower being two crescents in a reverse position with a diamond like shape overlapping them.

Now, obviously the similarities between the two are superficial at best, Jaune's hair being closer to blonde and Salem's being closer to Platinum, and Jaune's eyes being a shade darker than Salem's. As for the symbols, the only similarities between them are that they have two crescents in them, something not really unique. Now, the magic argument could be made in that it manifested in the Arc family as unnaturally high aura levels, something Pyrrha noted Jaune had when she unlocked his, and the disparity in eye and hair color is argued as being a result of genetics making Jaune's family gain a deeper color through the generations. As for the symbol, some like to state its possible the Arc symbol was derived from the symbol in Salem's tower. It is possible, but I find it very unlikely. Regardless of any relations, it is worth noting the similarities between Jaune and Salem. Glynda Goodwitch This one is one of the stranger ones in my opinion, but some think Glynda is Ozma and Salem's descendent. Again pointing to the blonde hair and fair skin, they also like to point out the origins behind Glynda and Salem's characters. Glynda is based on Glinda the Goodwitch from the Wizard of Oz, and Salem a lot of people mistakenly declare Salem is based off the Wicked Witch from the same story, when really, Salem's character inspiration has never been officially declared.
 * Both were young adults unable to do as they pleased because of their families only to achieve their dreams thanks to meeting someone that loved them (Its implied Jaune's family didn't believe in him being a huntsman, only for him to accomplish his dream for real thanks to Pyrrha unlocking his aura and training him, and Salem desired freedom and was granted it by Ozma) only for them to lose that person to circumstances beyond their control (Jaune lost Pyrrha after she tried to stop Cinder and sent him away, and Salem lost Ozma to an illness), the two then took their anger out on the beings they held responsible despite the circumstances being out of their control as well (Jaune blames the Ozluminati for trying to make her a maiden even though Pyrrha chose to face Cinder and Ozpin told him and her to call Glynda, and Salem blamed the gods for both refusing to revive Ozma and then repeatedly revive and kill him then curse her, when it was not their fault he originally died, it was an illness that claimed him) Hopefully Jaune doesn't follow Salem's path any further.

Aside from that, I've seen no evidence for the theory beyond the allusion comparison, so I call this one pure crack theory.

Honestly, the only one of the three that seems to have any likelihood is Jaune being their descendant, but even that seems like a stretch.

Any other thoughts you guys might have?
