So, I'm not sure if anyone's brought this up yet (too lazy to go through all of the posts on here, since there are so many), but in the intro of Episode 1, one of the very first things the narrator says is that man came from "dust". I'm wondering if this is a reference to the dust manufactured and sold by the SDC, and if so, is it possible that every human actually has dust inside of them? What if this is where semblance comes from?

If so, can external use of dust enhance one's semblance? Weiss's glyphs seem to be better-activated through the use of her weapon, which we already know contains a lot of dust. Perhaps this is also how Cinder's abilities work? It would also explain why she's so intent on stealing all of that dust.

Thoughts?
