 * spoilers*

Just wanted to throw something out there: Since Delilah can somehow control people with her paintings of them, presumably, without them having any recollection of it (as is done with Timsh, who has written her into his will--which I'm guessing may be when she controlled him and, probably, why Thalia wants the will back to take not only the fortune but also undo any unnecessary beneficiaries) as she was going to do with Emily Kaldwin (or entirely control her soul), and since there is a painting of Daud by Delilah viewed by several at the Boyle's seance (if Thalia is to be believed), any thought to Delilah having controlled Daud into assassinating Jessamine to have more access to Emily, given she'd become the new Empress?

I guess she probably wouldn't need to go to all that effort, as no one would know she's taken over Emily according to the poem that is next to the first Delilah statue. Like if you Posssess a bodyguard to walk into a new area, they'll feel dizzy, maybe throw up, but then they'll just accept they were there for some reason without knowing why (or, to attach a universal feeling, those times when you walk into a room and forget why you went in there initially); Daud would just have to accept it, not knowing why he had headhunted the Empress only that what is done is done, except to feel an immense torment of his consciousness and, possibly, leading him to want to right what he had done by now moving to, eventually, protect young Emily as the story plays out.

My apologies if this has all ready been put forth for discussion, and it's been awhile since I completed the main portion of the game, where it may outright reject such a scenario. Anyways, any thoughts? Plausible? Silly?
