Talk:Silver-Eyed Warrior/@comment-101.255.68.197-20160429153601/@comment-410526-20160429175012

Qrow says as much: "Back before Huntsmen, before Kingdoms, it was said that those born with silver eyes were destined to lead the life of a warrior..."

Like the story of the Four Maidens, presumably this story was forgotten and distorted over time. Unlike the story of the Maidens, which seems to be known but not regarded as factual, it appears even the legends of the Silver Eyed Warriors are obscure. Nobody believes or even knows about them anymore except for a select few (Ozpin, his friends, probably Salem).
