Mirrors seem to hold some key piece of communication as well as a means of transport. Syscrash said the ripper came from one. Eve was periodically staring into one during season 5. When Diana was trying to communicate with Adalind she mistakenly got Eve. Now we have a mirror demon who is communicating its presence and can go outside the boundaries of the mirror if it chooses.
Diana and Eve haven't been far from one another since the night Juliette betrayed Kelly. If I think about it, the two of them even acted in a similar manner, with no feeling. Now Diana is showing feelings toward her father and mother. Questions are being raised if Eve's feelings are going to revert her back to Juliette.
Diana was designated as something special by Kelly. Juliette/Eve was designated as something special by Henrietta. Diana has grown and changed in power just like Juliette, (now Eve). I do see a difference between them and that is when Nick used the stick on Eve and gave her a pure soul.
I'm trying to figure out when everything went out of wack in the scoobies' world. I originally thought it may have been Kelly's betrayal. But what if Elizabeth disrupted things when she brought Sean back to life?
It may be determined to have started then and it certainly would give weight to the prospect of Sean being helpful to his daughter in the days ahead. I don't fear for a moment that his love for Diana will keep him from doing wrong, but can he save her from that same thing is the question.
And the fact that Eve has a purified soul is surely fundamental to her role in all this, imo. Because she can save whoever possesses her from the fires of hell. I want the two to be connected in a positive way, but right now I'm disappointed to feel they may not be. Also significant to me is the fact that a purified soul might require leaving behind her Hexenbiest existence which seemed to be what was happening. But now it's being drawn out by this skull monster. This is probably more simple than I'm making it, I'm getting mixed up about who is good and who is bad.
I thought Elizabeth told Renard to call her if he needed her last time they were together. Hope she's on speed dial if she did.

But it's all guesswork on my part, and I thought two weeks ago that she was at peril, so I may change my mind again.

But if Diana is evil or connected to evil, would she feel a need to avenge Kelly’s death or maybe playing with Eve’s guilt to compromise her mental strength/clarity?
That the little tyrant would hurt Eve in the form of sapping her psychic and physical energy was a possibility I hadn't thought of, but it fits. I was following a repeated and deadly tendency Diana displays to kill those she feels have harmed the ones she loves. In this case, she is taking her time and torturing Eve and using her as a means of exploiting this whole stick and cloth prophecy. Think it started at the time Diana was first brought into the investigation of the drawings on the cloth. She may have been destined all along to be central to its doings, but she placed herself into the mix willfully if my idea is correct. She may be a cataclysm looking for a place to happen. If she knows Eve has been purified, she may have it it mind to use her as a conduit into that nether world. She taught herself everything, no training, it just came with the package, the idea that she's acquired the ability to strategize like a general may not be farfetched.
But maybe the child will become a sacrifice as the price paid to stop a great evil from winning the struggle. I hope to see it somewhat clarified next week because we are in the final stretch.
Could be that I am placing a shrewdness on Diana's actions that isn't there. She seems to being manipulating things, but it's quite possible she isn't.
