RWBY IX: Fractured Fairy Tales

[Callos_DeTerran]

Again, Bigyang exists. He aint doing anything, and was at least on par with Qrowe given he was part of it.

We don't really have any indication that Bigyang knows anything though, which makes him a poor choice to pick up/escort Amber in case he sees magic being used. We actually have some evidence (not a lot) that he doesn't when Qrow sends Bigyang out of the room to talk to Ruby at the end of Volume 3.

With Amber my only concern was that they hyped up the powers to be like, this god power that if people knew existed would destroy the peace of the entire world. And then she does something not even half as impressive as anyone with actual fight training.

How impressive you find it is subjective..I thought it did an alright job of conveying that Amber was powerful and had abilities other people didn't...but her ability to fight has no bearing on the Maidens being able to destroy peace in the world.

For one, you have concrete and physical proof that magic exists. Its not dust, its not a semblance, and it cannot be explained in much the same way the Grimm can't be. What's more it has existed for quite a long time apparently.

Second, and this is assuming the tale of the Two Brothers is true (I maintain its not), then the Maidens existing is the first bread crumb on a trail that proves, definitively, that gods exist and always have. Remnant doesn't seem like the most spiritual of settings so that's a theological crisis in and of itself right there. However, assuming we just haven't seen those elements, this would also mean that some religion could turn out to be 'right' about the nature of the world but, more importantly, that every other one is wrong with whatever consequences might come from that. That would be even worse than a largely agnostic/athesist society finding out that 'oops, guess we were wrong, gods exist'.

Then you have what they brought up..people jockeying to either control the Maidens or to control their power. And we've only gotten more impressive examples of what Maidens can do as the animation budget has gotten bigger and better. Nevermind the Maidens give access to the relics (and I already have a bad feeling from the Lantern with its 'light of knowledge') and whatever they may be able to do..but considering they relate to such broad and devastating concepts as Creation, Destruction, Knowledge, and Choice and that Salem wants them for some reason and I'd wager they can do very gnarly things.

And lets not forget that knowledge of the Maidens could lead to knowledge about the Wizard and thus Ozpin. The same guy who's been controlling the Huntsmen Academies from behind the scenes from at least the great war and who is implied to be the King of Vale who wrecked everyone's carp to end the war.

...in other words, yeah, even if the Maidens tthemselves don't seem impressive (again, opinion on that), their existence have fairly earth shattering revelations for the world as a whole.
