Gastropod wrote: Yeah, agreed on that. I really hope it's more than just a personal squabble between two random fairy wizards that is the central conflict of RWBY. If it becomes a "hell have no fury like a woman scorned" type deal, that's just bad trope writing. I doubt it will be that but there's always a chance.

@ Grimmstride and Warren Witch

The main problem is that this Silver Eyes things pops up right after the Maidens thing. That's not one, but two OP forces that are seemingly passed down or granted. Not something you go to the gym for or read a book on. Sure you have to practice the power and it helps to be tactical and smart. But lets be real. If Cinder beat Ozpin when it came time to fight Pyrrha she could've simply created an enormous blast to level the whole tower and Pyrrha would burn to death or be forced to fall to her death. I don't like that. Cinder was alreadt power and the Maidens thing now makes her and anyone else who gets it seem like all there is to focus on.

What's martial arts and a zen-like wisdom to enormous flames and lightning storm created with a wave of the hand?

Mark my words: Maidens and Silver Eyed Warriors will be the Saiyans and half-Saiyans of RWBY if this keeps up.
