Exploring the topic of Who is Salem...

From Beginning of the End

Cinder : The Huntsman severed the connection before it was complete. ( pause ) Yes. It's... an emptiness. It burns. Like hunger. I like it. ( pause ) Yes. I will claim what is ours. ( pause ) Thank you.

Specifically: "Yes, I will claim what is ours."

The first guess is that Cinder is speaking to Salem. If this is so, then why would Salem feel that the maiden powers belong to her and Cinder? Assuming that Cinder is still talking about the Fall Maiden's powers. Salem was clearly conceived as a character before the Maiden thing anyway, but then again, so was Cinder.

So what possible connection to the maidens' powers would Salem have, unless she felt entitled to them beyond seeking of power. Connected to the wizard of the myth perhaps? His daughter?

@ManOfManyTales  How about Salem is Dorothy?
