Oh, ok, to explain my reasoning, then *tries to calm down*

It might have seemed more obvious to me that the white queen had hunting powers, since I've known that all along, so I immediately jumped from "Sally is saying she's the Hunter" to "Sally is saying she's the WQ".

It's just the same as in chess - the queen has the powers of both a rook and a bishop. I have no idea why Sally would impersonate the WQ if she wasn't evil; and I also can't imagine how she could be an extra hunter that doesn't exist.

Now I really have to go make dinner for my kids. Don't do anything rash while I'm gone, people, please.
