Jessica was born with one personality, then after taking the water of life she has the memories of all her female ancestors.

It's mostly memory, but personalities are there, but subdued, and if they overcome the host's conciousness it's abomination.

Jessica was pregnant with Alia when she took the water of life. Alia did not have her own personality, nor time to develop one, she DID have all those memories. And because she was Atreides, the water affected her in such a way that she had access to ALL ancestoral memories. male and female.

-She has all her grandfather's memories up until Baron's sperm left his body.
-She has all her grandmother's memories up until Mohiam gave birth to Jessica.
-She has all her Father's memories up until Leto's sperm left his body.
-She has all her Mother's memories up until Jessica gave birth.

So... Alia would know that the Baron raped Mohiam who gave birth to Jessica.

And the Baron would also know everything Alia learned from day one. Whatever she sees hears touches or smells is known to the voices within. So they know all she knows.

Alia lost control to the multitude, the Baron's presence was the strongest, and he took over her in the end.. The Possesion.

Does that clear it up... or make it worse :-)
