So. I had a theory that Cinder is not the queen, but the queen is in prison, but she does work for the queen, and Qrow is the one who caught the Queen which is why Ironwood will take the younger mans word as highly as he does, and cinder being one of the pawns, is going to 'sacrifice' herself to get the queen back, because of chess terms, her leaving the Queen calling card in the CCT was just so people would know the Queen has reach outside even when locked up.

but this is probably just crazy talk.
