Fall[edit | edit source]
| “ | The Maidens have existed for thousands of years, but much like in nature, the seasons change. No two summers are alike.

—Glynda, explaining the succession of Maidens to Pyrrha Nikos
| “ | At first, the only thing that was certain was that the powers were specifically passed onto young women, but as time went on, it was discovered that the selection process was much more intimate. As we understand it now, when a Maiden dies, the one who is in her final thoughts is the first candidate to inherit her power. | ” |

—Glynda scolds Team CFVY

—Glynda assigns CFVY work
Chapter 17[edit | edit source]
| “ | As much as we've been worried about your safety while you've been here, you've shown that those concerns are unnecessary. I'm proud that you will be going out into the world to complete your training, and I have no doubt you will be exemplary Huntsmen and Huntresses–because you already are. | ” |
—Glynda, to Team CFVY
| “ | You won't have the privilege of hearing Professor Ozpin deliver his graduation speech, but there's one thing he tells every class that I want to share with you. Beacon Academy is not a place. It is an idea, which has taken root in each and every one of you. YOU are Beacon, and you must now go forth and serve as a hopeful light for others. It is your privilege and your burden as Huntsmen and Huntresses to protect not only those who cannot defend themselves, but to watch out for each other, always. | ” |
—Glynda recalls Ozpin's graduation speech to CFVY

—Glynda talks about Ozpin's farewells
RWBY: The Grimm Campaign[edit | edit source]
| “ | What follows are my reports on the Kuchinashi Incident: this log is frustratingly scattered, pieced together over several months from a series of testimonies given by Huntsman, operators, travelers and those whispers that escape the darkness within Mistral’s borders. Like many of the reports we received from the region much of it is rumor and hearsay and while we can collaborate many of the larger events, those that affect too many of Mistral to have been swept under the rug, the specific of the details are lost–only kept by those who know the rugs under which to peek. As I know you have a fondness for stories, I’ve recorded what I have summarized from intel as such including dossiers from the Huntsman and Huntresses of note. Happy reading, Headmaster. | ” |
—Glynda's message, opening the story of RWBY: The Grimm Campaign and its heroes

Glynda is exhausted but unbowed, and she will guard this place with her life, until it is restored. Until the day everything returns to normal. Until the day... her students return. "Beacon Academy is not a place. It is an idea, which has taken root in each and every one of you. YOU are Beacon..." -Glynda |

Chapter 1[edit | edit source]
| “ | He is the top suspect of Dusts Robberies that have plagued Vale as of late. Truth be told, we've been largely unable to prevent these crimes. Which makes your recent action particularly heroic... and a deed worthy of praise. | ” |
—Glynda, to Ruby talking about Roman and her actions
| “ | On that day... you a single student from Signal, took up arms... against a vicious criminal who gives even Huntsmen a run for their money. No. That's not courage. It's recklessness. | ” |
—Glynda, to Ruby
