Ever since I found out about Yang's past, I always suspected that her mother had some connection to a villain or was one herself. My first thought was Cinder; it seemed dumb at first, but then started to sound like a good idea. But as soon as Raven appeared, I recognized her at once as the most likely candidate. The most convincing support for the thoery, for me, was Yang's reaction to Raven when they meet.

But Raven's story is too dark to not involve... well, darkness. It remained my belief that she had some connection to an evil person, which must have contributed to her decision to leave Yang behind... to keep Yang safe. I still assumed it was Cinder; the similarity of what I thought was Semblance still stuck with me. Of course, then I realized that Cinder's fire is probably not her Semblance, but Dust. It still felt right to me, though, until I noticed this:

Could Raven and Neo be sisters?
