Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-3257939-20140929024056

Just an idea that I'm sure everyone else had at this point but I wanted to discuss it anyway in case I'm missing something. Let's summarize what the bad guys did so far:


 * We saw that the White Fang is recruiting, gearing up and getting deadly mechs to fight a war.


 * Enough dust for an army has been stolen which if put in backwards means that Vale has not enough dust to prepare an army to defend itself


 * Cinder did something in the CCT and that tower's main purpose is to communicate with the other kingdoms. Disable all comunications at the right time maybe? Or even send a signal powerful enough to disable or even corrupt Ironwood's robot army (including Penny) to make them go rogue and attack everyone.

And finally: Every huntsmen and huntresses plus the ones in training left the kingdom to go on a mission meaning that the entire kingdom of Vale is completely defenseless.

I think what Cinder's planning is pretty obvious at this point. And she is confident that no one will realize their involvement in the entire conflict. By the time they investigate what the heck happened, Cinder and Co. will have escaped. And when Mercury said he hates waiting, she answered: "we have a fun weekend ahead of us". The weekend is over, so the plan is starting NOW.

The only remaining thing is: "The list". Why was Pyrrha on it, what is Cinder planning to do with those people? The whole reason why they included her was because of her semblance and then she said that they will steal their "power". Is she planning to steal their semblances or something entirely different?
