So... the old theory that Cinder used to be a Huntress who turned her back on the kingdoms might not be too far off. Maybe she's a Huntress who trained at Haven, and that's one reason why she was able to pose as a student at the tournament and why Team SSSN, who attend Haven, never went "I don't recognize that woman." Eh, I dunno.

I edited some of the pages that had the more theoretical wording on them, but I dunno if I missed anything.

At least we know that Salem and the Relics were planned from the very beginning. Miles said the Relics and the story of the brother gods was his very first major contribution to the planning of RWBY, and they said that Salem was designed early on as well.
