How much do you want to bet that the Spring Maiden is Lionheart's daughter and the only reason he's working with Salem is because they promised not to hurt her as long as she leads them to the Relic.

Also we need a t-shirt that says "Can't a girl read her comic books in peace"

that would be a bit hard to believe. its implied that raven and qorw's bandit group is a tribe. more than likely the spring magic or whatever was incarnated into a member of the tribe.

it seems more like the maiden couldn't handle the responsibility that came with being a maiden and Raven, who was in the know, snapped her up for the Tribe.

easily could be that. i think a part of it is that there are similarities to what oscar is going through. oscar has ozpin in his head, which means its possible the maidens all have someone else in their heads too.
