Does Connection Before Ascension Matter?

[Trusk'our he/him]

Shards who are bound, such as Odium, only seem to be able to directly interact with those who they are Connected to. So, hypothetically, let’s say that Taravangian got ahold of an Unsealed Feruchemical Duraluminmind and used it to create a strong Connection between himself and Jasnah Kholin. Would he, after ascension, be able to use that Connection to directly meet and interact with Jasnah as he could Dalinar?

I don't think he'd need the Duralumin, since Rayse had no connection to Dalinar before he ascended.

He was able to Connect to Dalinar due to his Unmade Nergaoul's influence, iirc?
