I meant that back in ancient times people probably worshipped them like Gods simply because of their superior abilities. It's often human nature to put people up on pedestals if their deemed exceptional for better or worse.

Case in point, Pyrrha Nikos. Despite not being a Silver-Eyed Warrior, she was a well known fighter and people adored her for never losing a fight. Everybody everywhere knew her name and recognized her on sight. It certainly sounds like a form of worship to me.

So, imagine one day if Pyrrha ever did became a Silver-Eyed Warrior. I imagine that that already massive fanbase would quickly become a cult within a matter of days.

In short, were the Silver-Eyed Warriors Deities? No, obviously not. Not in any way that mattered. They were still very much Humans who were simply extremely gifted. And they were still capable of being killed which puts them firmly in the Mortal category for me.

Were the Silver-Eyed Warriors ever worshipped as Human Deities? I think that they very probably could've been as we've seen time and time again throughout history that people do tend crowd themselves around ideas of belief and people of exception again for better or worse. Maybe the Silver-Eyed Warriors themselves genuinely believed that they were Gods and or Goddesses sent down to protect the world.

Sidenote: How do we know that the Silver-Eyed Warriors themselves aren't a result of some godly interference? Maybe centuries ago some God or Goddess came down and decided to gift some person with exceptional skill or power and then that gift was eventually passed down to his or her descendants?

Assuming of course that the Silver-Eyed Warriors are all from one single family line. Which seems to be confirmed since both Summer and Ruby have the trait and nobody else has been shown to possess it. Yet.
