Likely because she was the first path to find him, and has known him the longest, and thus probably the best. But Id leave that up to you.

And it is an interesting method of duplication, Aro, for sure. As it is, the Crucible was meant for such purposes at one time, but no longer, because V knows how dangerous it is. That's why he's there as it's master. The memories that are all there now were put there by Alcamarie when she stole them, and she stole memories from hundreds of thousands of people by making copies of their SE signature and the points in time/space they are associated with. V can doit to a much lesser degree, but he asks a high price so as to curb abuse.

As for how the Crucible does it, it's the power of the Glyph that still resides there. The Glyph was what shaped the memories and made the Memento Mori, and then the Crucible, and at that point, Alcamarie made it into a repository for the memories she stole. The Glyph specifically was a magic manifestation of Alcamarie's psychic ability to steal memories and make them real, but she needed it amplified into a tool she could use. So she planted the Glyph and awaited the one who who would claim it and make it grow.
