Also I think it's interesting how Kol is the only Mikaelson that it's specifically mentioned to have inherited Esther's magic, aside from the little comment about Rebekah having 'borderline supernatural instincts' about people lying that could've also implied such. And he didn't just inherit her magic he was supposedly, in his own words, a child prodigy. So I think it's interesting how in the originals when Esther comes back to 'right the wrongs' she puts Finn into the body of not only a witch but a more powerful witch than Kol. Which Kol comments on! As if one of the wrongs she's righting is Kol's power giving it to her favourite son who she believes is more deserving of it. Which is particularly interesting as he's the one that's actually implementing Esther's plan by trying to gain Davina's trust and interacting with Mikael and his siblings and Finn later turns around and betrays her
