No, no, you misunderstand me. I'm not saying that the WWs or BQ successfully scried anyone at any point. I'm saying that it makes sense that they would have the potential to find the "cursed villager" as it is called in most games, either via scry or kill. If the WQ can turn White Pawns (and there's lots of them so she has decent odds), I think it likely that the BQ or the WWs had the ability to turn the Black Pawn on the off chance they could find xem.

I don't think it actually happened. Otherwise we'd be dead as the number of WWs would equal the number of villagers. Repeat: I don't think that happened!

My point about this was simply in reference to my case about the narrative possibly hinting at one of the Black pieces becoming a Rook, and your counter-point that "It wasn't in the rules so it can't be true". My meaning is that the rules obviously don't say everything, and logically there are things we do not know about the baddies.

But if my crack-pot theory is correct, Rikae would indeed be the safe one to lynch. So my idea was not meant to conflict with your leanings at all. Rikae would be my choice as well.
