I never really thought about exactly how Emerald would use them before too tbh(I did assume she'd eventualy inherit them though) why would Em be out of the loop? NEvertheless, considering Cinder's personality, I'd say Ruby would be the most likely to get her powers. But I suppose Em getting the powers actually is a way of Cinder kicking the bucket and yet Salem's group not take a huge step back, since they would still have the Maiden powers with them. They might need a new Fall Maiden after this battle. Even if Cinder wins (which she shouldn't) what if Raven chops off her remaining human hand? She wouldn't need to sever her whole arm, just the hand. That way, she can't open the Beacon Vault, for she wouldn't have any human hands left, and I doubt Grimm hands would count in this caae. Then Cinder would be useless in obtaining the Beacon Relic. Wouldn't that be poetic justice.
