 @ wikia: On the topic of Merse, you have to keep in mind, that being able to make all but the nastiest of men to love them and to then to love them right back ,is one of the most crucial   abilities of the mamono. I have issues with that ability, as well as the way it is described, but since it is pretty much canon, we have to keep it in mind, when we are talking about in-universe character motivations. If we do so, the scenario you described is only problematic   under 1 of 2 conditions: 1. The man she is married to is someone like Ramsay Snow(aka a complete bastard) or

 2. She loves a different man.

 Case one is easy. man so horrible that a mamono will be unwilling to marry him would not make a good father, period. taking a child from him is a blessing for that child.

 Case 2 is problematic and I am glad that you brought it up. Here I am willing to say that I have no answer. That said,   it doesn't make the plan completely unfeasible, only flawed under a specific and unlikely to come up scenario. As such it cannot serve as proof of brainwashing. Circumstantial evidence- perhaps. But not proof.

 As for Francesca... Well, your plan presupposes   that her sisters   were both present then the city was overrun and willing o take the throne after the transformation. And even if they were, Deru didn't need brainwashing to get them to stand back. A show of force would have been sufficient. So again, circumstantial evidence at best.
