I agree with the potential of the silver eyed warriors being a name for the sucessors of the OG maidens. This or the potential for Ruby to be both a maiden (I'm still not sure which I think she is given the possibility that she is one) and a silver eyed warrior.

One of the main reasons I think she may be a maiden or both is Cinder's final reaction that we got to see. That "WHAT?!" didn't seem like it was shock or surprise only, it was knowledge Cinder knew/knows something that made her react that way. It was disbelief, I think it was "How, right when I've finally succeded, does another maiden show up? And it's someone I've written off this whole time!" This is someone who is obviously very familiar with the maidens and what they do/can do.

In a show where every little detail has purpose and reason, I just don't see the very obvious similarity between the way Cinder's eyes gave off those wisps of flames and Ruby's eyes in that moment, being something unconnected. I just don't think it would make sense in the context of how these people (RWBY Crew) write and how they work.

I also don't necessarily agree that Qrow was telling the full story, but I also don't think he was makng something up for Ruby. Ruby, and everyone else, have been through a lot, the last thing anyone Ruby needed was to have this whole crazy legacy thrown at her. Qrow gave her the easy answer, one that he hoped could pacify her for the time being. An answer, that while true, isn't the full story. There's more going on than just that, and I think in time we may find out that Ruby is a silver eyed warrior and a maiden.

Granted, I'm happy either way. I think we need to allow the RWBY crew to do what they do before freaking out too much. If she is a maiden, I know they'll do something awesome with it and I sincerely believe not many people will be dissapointed in the end if she is. Yes, it may be a little cliche for the main character to end up being almost "a choosen one" but the RWBY crew is good, and they're smart. They will do it in a way that makes us all happy. I know it.

For now I think we all need to calm down and allow everyone to have their ideas and opinions without jumping down each other's throat as has happened in this thread.
