- Doesn't seem likely, since chances that Luke would have survived are slim and he plainly did survive, since he was later able to write a letter to the Professor about a 'new mystery' he wanted to investigate with him.
- Jossed in the Layton Mystery Journey anime, where Luke is very clearly grown up, alive and kicking—literally! Those thugs are going to be sore on the morning.
- AND coincidentally, Luke's boat when he comes back to London to visit the Professor *does* sink, but he makes it out alive and physically unharmed with a baby to prove it.
Warning: Potential Mind Screw
Shortly after the events of Unwound Future, when Luke moves to New York City or Dublin or Boston wherever it was Luke was moving to, something terrible happens to Luke involving his parents and the legal system/society. This gets Luke sent back to London under the care of Professor Layton. Luke is glad to be with Layton for a time, but something about Layton seems different since the last time Luke saw him. As Luke grows older, Layton becomes less and less able to help Luke as he did before, and Luke starts to resent this as the professor starts to drive him insane. Once he is able to drive, Luke goes by himself back to Saint-Mystere to recover Flora's fortune, which he then uses to reactivate Dmitri's time machine he remembered from a previous adventure. Luke then gets this crazy idea that he can right Layton, his clueless youth, and his crazy society by setting up a massive scam involving Layton, his younger self, and the country's top scientists and prime minister taking place a few years ago. He uses the time machine to rack up money by buying winning lottery tickets, and then travels into the past to begin his plot. Once he is done, he invites Layton and his former self to the crazy fake future he built just for them, both wanting them to save him from complete madness and yet wanting to vengefully harass them. He laughs when Layton says he is really some guy called Clive because that's how Luke knows he has the professor fooled. The first thing Luke did with the time machine was to travel 20 years into the past, when Layton lost Claire, to create a false identity for himself named "Clive Dove". No one would suspect who he truly was. He then rushes to the Mobile Fortress of Mass Destruction he built to destroy the world as he knew it, yet wishing his mentor and his former self would stop him from doing so. After he is arrested, he soon disappears back into his own time, both feeling guilty for the ghastly deeds he had done and smug about the fact that he had the country's smartest man — his own beloved Hershel Layton — fooled, and the way that meant he would never get caught.
That's why Clive looks identical to Luke without the aid of any disguise, knows Luke's past, and calls for Professor Hershel Layton of all people to help him with his issues. He IS Luke.
- Jossed, partially. But knowing how timelines are erased and created at the whim of a decision it probably did happen.
- Not necessarily. With the objective complete, there's no reason the town needs to remain ignorant of its nature. At the very least, a few could be told, and thus take up the responsibility of repairing the others and the like.
- What. How would deactivating the robots if the inheritance was disturbed discourage a Jerkass from taking it and leaving Flora
's corpsein a ditch somewhere? There's no way that it would...- A Jerkass wouldn't care if the robots deactivated... I understand the idea of the WMG, yet it seems like it should be the other way around. If it is a Secret Test of Character, then it shouldn't be set up to where a Jerkass that shuts down the robots gets Flora her money, but a nice guy that lets what's essentially her family live gets her none of her money.
- Booby-trapped fortune. You touch the money, something unpleasant happens. My guess is the drawbridge collapses to give Bruno time to do something about it, rather than the town shutting down. Probably Bruno or somebody has a bypass that can get at the wealth without setting off the trap if it's needed.
- What. How would deactivating the robots if the inheritance was disturbed discourage a Jerkass from taking it and leaving Flora
- Additionally, this theory would result in Luke being the actual brains of the outfit, at least in real-life situations... which fits in with a later event in the second game where Layton (deliberately or not) takes the request for 'that hat' in its most liberal sense and gives an NPC the nearest matching hat to his own that he can find. Layton seems genuinely mistaken, but oblivious to this fact at the same time.
- Layton acknowledges that he took it in a sense more liberal than possible, and then states that, quite simply, he will not remove his hat.
- Luke lives with his parents and has a good relationship with them, so Luke's half of the WMG is jossed.
- However, this theory could just as easily be applied to Layton's relationship with Flora.
- We meet Layton's parents in Miracle Mask, and they seem like perfectly decent and loving people. However, his mother is a huge worrier, and parents who worry often raise children who worry too.
- However, later, we find that Bronev Reinel, the head of Targent, is Layton's real father and his mother passed away after the pair had been kidnapped for researching the Azran, in the captivity of Targent years before, encouraging Bronev to lead it. It is also revealed Descole is Layton's brother and the TRUE Hershel, while Layton's real full name is Leppard Reinel.
- Layton and Luke's father are best friends, so it's not completely farfetched. I wouldn't be surprised if he was Luke's godfather, though.
- If Layton is Luke's godfather, there's still the question of why Luke doesn't seem aware of their relationship; though given the amount of trouble Luke's gotten into just by being Layton's apprentice, one can imagine that being known as Layton's godson would be even more dangerous.
- Actually, he's an archaeology professor. Now if you'll excuse him, he has to go find the Lost Ark.
- The 'alternate Europe' part is pretty nearly canon, considering the Anachronism Stew and everything, so this is extremely plausible.
- This troper has always assumed this to be true, mainly because it rather neatly ties up a lot of the things people get confused over.
- I think #3 is the most probable. The service entrance probably leads to an elevator, so Bruno can do things like check on Flora and bring her meals and stuff without putting too much strain on his aging knees. They didn't use the elevator to escape because it would have been too easy to become trapped, much like how you're never supposed to use an elevator during a fire.
- Or Flora isn't actually involved in the administration at all (why go about town in disguise if you're the only real person walking the streets?), and therefore doesn't know about the service entrance at all. It's entirely possible that she worked out all the puzzles beforehand though.
- Spoiler for Unwound Future: he does take off his hat at the end and he has a perfectly normal head.
- No such luck.
- I expect the reason his name is and was KEPT Clive is because it's a very British name, usually not used outside Britain. It's probably supposed to represent some sense of irony, considering what Clive's ultimate plan was. It's also to some degree a Meaningful Name. Why do people take such issue with some of the name changes?
- Considering the fact that his backstory was otherwise unexplained, he shared traits with the other Subjects, and it is otherwise unexplained as to how he can talk, I'd say this one was as good as confirmed.
- Jossed - Descole and Randall appear on-screen together in Miracle Mask, and it turns out the former was manipulating the latter.
- Jossed to the extreme in Azran Legacy, as Descole turns out to be Layton's brother.
- Alternately, Maya will, at some point, be Descole in disguise. I mean, he could disguise himself as Angela.
- Unfortunately jossed.
- This is quite close to the canon explanation.
- It's explained by it being from the Professor Layton series, where everything is awesome and logic-defying.
- He also seems to feel very sick after time travelling even though they're really just in a shaky elevator. No one else appears to be seriously affected by this except for Flora, but she's probably just a lightweight.
- Maybe part of it comes from anxiety over moving away from the Professor at the end of the game.
- And that would also go with the comparison to the statue of the old man, and the boy who died of an illness.
- And that could mean that the reason Clark took a new job overseas is A) there's a highly respected doctor in America, and/or B) to pay the medical bills... hang on, this troper's going to go cry from how much sense this makes.
- I really like this WMG, but a possible solution could simply be that Luke is reacting to the dense pollution in the air that is used to hide the lack of a real sky and that the clock shop goes straight up and never ends. There's enough pollution that it gets commented on. His reaction is more severe due to being younger and originally from a town full of mist. The moisture in the air would keep it somewhat cleaner than other places. Of course, both could be true, and that Luke suffers from the same ailment as Juniper Woods, but his reactions are, so far, manifesting as dizziness, not coughing, and the smog makes it worse.
- The Laytonmobile is his TARDIS, and we've already seen that his trunk can hold a suspiciously large number of objects...
- This is now my own personal canon.
- I understand the nature of this WMG, but it was actually Claire who made him 'realise the importance of being a true gentleman'. (Also, the prompt on the meme was 'being a woman on the inside', not transgender.)
- Maybe he's Dimitri.
- This would totally explain why he keeps getting angry and throwing tantrums if he doesn't find what he's looking for right this minute. He's frightened and desperate and taking out his frustrations on what he perceives to be the barrier in his way, not realising that he should really listen to all those useless hint coins and look at the puzzle from a different perspective. He can't look at it differently because he's in a panic and believes himself to be running out of time. And this is now my new canon.
- Flora grew up surrounded by mechanical contraptions. Don Paolo builds mechanical contraptions.
- They never, ever, EVER appear together. (With the exception of that one cutscene at the end of Curious Village... I mean, it's not as if someone could build a robotic doppelganger or something crazy like that.)
- She always wants to be around the Professor. Don Paolo can't leave the Professor alone, to the point of pretty well constantly seeking him out.
- Flora has difficulty talking to strangers. Don Paolo has the air of a man who shuns all company but his own (and the Professor's).
- Flora gets left behind all the time while Luke goes on adventures with the Professor. Don Paolo can't stand Luke.
- Flora is a girl. Don Paolo's manliness is arguable.
- And most importantly, they are both masters of disguise.
- In Unwound Future, they spend loads of time on-screen together. He treats her very nicely.
- See caveat to the second dot point above.
- In Unwound Future, they spend loads of time on-screen together. He treats her very nicely.
- It's gotta be something nerdy like that.
- Given what we find out in Azran Legacy, it's probably closer to Leonovich
- After completing the core 155 puzzles in Last Specter, the player unlocks an 'episode' which shows Chelmey's past and his old mentor/boss/friend, Inspector Gilbert. Gilbert sacrificed his life to save Chelmey's, promoting him to Inspector with his last words. However, the episode just finishes mentioning an experiment catching fire with two scientists trapped and a woman killed, which is obviously the time machine accident. It's unlikely that the accident would have been mentioned if the two things weren't linked, subtly implying the criminal was the instigator of the original fire... ergo, Bill Hawks! Considering how hostile Chelmey was toward Hawks at the end of Unwound Future...
Two people who look that much alike is way too convenient, even for the Layton series. My guess is that Clive and Luke are perhaps cousins (or even second cousins, as Luke doesn't seem to be familiar with him) who have a very Uncanny Family Resemblance. Hey, it makes much more sense than what we're given.
- This troper thought that they were half-brothers through Clark from a brief relationship he had as a teenager. It makes sense when you do the maths: assuming that Clark is the same age as Layton, Luke was born when Clark was 24. Clive seems to be around about 21, meaning that Clark would have been around 16 when Clive was conceived/born. Clark could have broken up with Clive's mother shortly after his conception, meaning that he would have no idea that Clive even existed, and Clive's mother could have ditched her baby at an orphanage due to her not being able to cope, where he got adopted. Far-fetched, perhaps, but all very possible.
- No. Clive ended up at an orphanage because his parents were killed as a result of the time machine accident, remember? He lived with both of his parents as a kid, before they died, so the only way that Clark being Clive's biological father would be possible would be if Clive's mother remarried and he grew up with a stepfather.
- "Remarried" is definitely not the case- she could have just BEEN a married woman Clark had an affair with, or she got married soon after Clive was born and he was just never told he had a different bio dad. The WMG states it was a teenage romance, not a full commitment. But overall it doesn't make much sense due to the ages, since Clive's mother would have had to married the person he identified as his father either before, during, or very soon after the pregnancy for him to never question it. Which would most likely mean his mother is a predator or married VERY young if Clark was just 16, both of which are horrifying scenarios. For Clark to be Clive's father, most likely he had to be in his early 20's at the time and it was a straight-up affair he had with a married or engaged woman, who told her husband Clive was his, and Clark had Luke in his late not mid-twenties. It's also plausible Clive is not in his 20's at all, but is in his very late teens, 17-19, to close the gap more to make it fit. But overall it really doesn't fit.
- No. Clive ended up at an orphanage because his parents were killed as a result of the time machine accident, remember? He lived with both of his parents as a kid, before they died, so the only way that Clark being Clive's biological father would be possible would be if Clive's mother remarried and he grew up with a stepfather.
- I always thought that Clive got away with it because both he and Luke have really common features that loads of people have. Light brown hair and dark eyes aren't uncommon in the slightest, and those were the two things that really made Clive look like Luke. Everything else was actually different, such as the shape of their faces and skin tones, and could be Handwaved as Clive being older and the fact that people's facial features do change with age. Luke (despite being 13ish...) still looks really young and has a round childlike face and probably a rather childish nose and mouth, too. The dress sense I actually chalk up as the fact that both boys were part of wealthy families, and that style might not be all that uncommon for wealthy young boys. The fact that both wore hats makes sense because a lot of people in-universe wear hats. Clive kept that style because it made it easier to enhance what little resemblance he actually did have to Luke, which again, could have amounted to nothing more than the same hair and eye colour, which in-universe, are pretty common. Luke's dad, Flora, Bill Hawks, Granny Riddleton, Lady Dahlia, Cogg, and a good number other NCPs have light brown hair of similar shades to Luke's. It would be easier to list who doesn't have dark eyes in the games. The only real Contrived Coincidence is that they have the same eye shape, since it's not common among NC Ps. So for me, it could be just a matter of having the same eyes and hair colour and that's it, with Luke actually looking almost nothing like Clive when he himself hit 23.
- Dear God. If this is true, I really hope the search happening as soon as it did was simply because Bruno got impatient. Otherwise, Flora's damn lucky that Layton misinterpreted Baron Reinhold's final wishes.
- Not to mention she'd be incredibly lucky that the Professor is such a gentleman. If this WMG is true, it's a good thing the village is set up like a Secret Test of Character...
- Bruno is an old man. It might be less that he got impatient and more that he worried he was running out of time, especially since they couldn't possibly have guessed that someone smart enough to solve all the riddles would show up that quickly and might have expected it to take years more (then once it didn't he just went along with the 'adoption' idea, yes, that's totally what the plan was for, nothing else, really).
- This is practically canon, since it's actually the butt of the entire situation in the Japanese version. They make out that the one who ultimately looks after Flora could refer to a spouse as much as a guardian and turn it into a running gag in which Flora constantly insists that she's Layton's wife. This was flat out left out of the localization for obvious reasons.
- Layton assigns her to other assignments.
- Emmy leaves Layton in between the two trilogies.
- To give the final game a huge bang in vein to the Unwound Future, Emmy will die.
- This seems Laytonesque, but to do that, Emmy's character will have to develop more and more emotional attachment will have to be placed on her for her death to be dramatically successful.
- There's a moment in the Azran Legacies trailer where Emmy is shown with in shadow, with sad eyes. "Goodbye, Professor Layton". The game also has a mysterious girl who seems to be frozen in ice. Perhaps Emmy ends up having to take the girl's place in order to preserve the legacy of the civilization?
- This seems Laytonesque, but to do that, Emmy's character will have to develop more and more emotional attachment will have to be placed on her for her death to be dramatically successful.
- It is revealed in The Azran Legacy that she had been a mole for Targent all along. After betraying Professor Layton, she deems herself unworthy of being his assistant anymore and leaves. According to the game's Japanese guidebook, she later wrote a letter to Layton explaining she'd become a reporter for the World Times newspaper and hopes to meet him again someday.
- Confirmed! I can't believe it! The parts where I said he was trying to change an event in the future using an event from his past is actually true! SPOILERS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZU5yAqZ52k
- ...What. He wants to solve the Azran mystery before Targent, as revenge against Azran/Targent. There is nothing about changing an event in the future.
- That's what I mean by future. My real flaw was what I meant by future and him being an alternate Hershel Layton. He IS Hershel. The future event would be Bronev/Targent awakening the Azran Legacies and plunging the world into despair, which would destroy it. Hence him saying his prophecy was to discover the Azran civilization before Bronev. Watch the video more closely, then watch the video with Emmy's true motives. Since he was a child he wanted to stop Bronev from getting the legacy, hence the tragic event in the future, future being the timeline Azran Legacies takes place in, which he must prevent Bronev from discovering the Azran legacies. Here is another video proving it even more. Make sure to read Aria's lines as well. It is more than just revenge, and if you see the final scene in the game, he actually helps Layton and Bronev, aka "preventing the tragic event from the future" Emmy's Secrets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlMB_zF98JM
- In a trunk episode he outright say "world without [his wife and daughter] is meaningless, and the world could just perish". They also just learned moments ago that solving the Azran Mystery could cause The End of the World as We Know It, and Descole used Aria's dispirit over learning that to get the Key Stone and run off to solve Azran. Every time his motivations comes up it is always "revenge against Targent"/"revenge against Azran". Saying this wmg is confirmed is really stretching it.
- Nope, it's jossed. He's Hershel Bronev, AKA Layton's brother. Layton's real name was Theodore Bronev.
- He's an archaeologist, so why else would he move to Misthallery? "Doland" talked about needing Clark's knowledge of Misthallery’s geography, climate, soil, and geological makeup is vital to him.
- Jossed. It's pointed out in Grosky's profile that he actually has a very lovely but estranged wife. He's probably more married to his job at this point...
- Maybe Don Paolo is too. Some of his disguises were equally ridiculous, after all.
- Wow, this one is right on the mark. Not a single flaw. Azran Legacies confirms that Emmy is indeed Bronev's niece and the photos that were taken came from her. She is an agent of Targent working under Bronev because he is her uncle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlMB_zF98JM *MAJOR SPOILERS*
- Broneph Reinel?
- This troper took it as a clue hinting toward the Masked Gentleman's true identity as Randall. After all, the Gentleman wears a top hat and his true name starts with the letter R.
- That was what this troper (the one who suggested Broneph Reinel) thought at first, too, but if that was indeed the case, shouldn't it have been an "A" instead of an "R", since on the hint coins it's an "L" instead of a "H"?
- But then again, Layton's real name is Leppard Reinel, which would suggest L stands for either his real first name or fake last name. So then it could be any of the Reinels, Flora or Randall...mysterious.
I could be wrong, but this IS WMG. And this is just way too good to pass up. I'm calling it now while no one else seems to have gotten the same idea...
- Moreover, Desmond's butler is named Raymond, in one of the books Descole's butler was also named Raymond. Also, both Desmond and Raymond is called mysterious on the official site.
Edit: I saw a video of the newly-released Azran Legacies that spans the first 70 minutes plus of the game on YouTube. It was all in Japanese so I couldn't understand EVERYTHING. However, listen to Sycamore's voice (39:56) and tell me you don't think it's strange that it sounds like Descole's Japanese voiceover (1:42). Of course, this could just be a case of having the same Japanese VA. But that voice sounds like Descole's whenever he's calm.
- The big flaw I see in my own theory, however, is that the main characters don't seem to notice the similarities themselves. Or maybe they Knew It All Along...?
The two roles appear similar to each other, but this is actually because they're individually similar to Descole's true identity. Him as Descole bears much more similarity, because after years of keeping his real self out of the public eye, he felt reassured (and tempted) enough to let more of himself show through. Thus, Layton's comment about faintly knowing Descole from somewhere. Level 5's making the connection too blatant for there not be something else going on, after all.
- Some problems with my theory here include:
- 1. Why would he write to Layton and get him involved? (Possibility: he knew Targent wouldn't be far behind, and needed something to distract/interfere with them, if only temporarily. He's learned the hard way what Layton is capable of, and figured that he could use that to his advantage. That outweighed the risk of being discovered.)
- 2. Wouldn't he, as Sycamore, look too obvious to Layton? (Possibility: When he first invented the role, he wasn't as good as disguises and voices as he'd be later, and also had to keep things simple enough in order to maintain it over a much longer period of time. This backfires on him once Layton's in the picture for the sixth game, but the identity was well set up by this point and it was too late to change. Why he couldn't consider different slacks and shoes, however, still escapes me.)
- 3. If Descole's age or Sycamore's reported age is younger than Layton's by several years, then this could hit a snag.
- 4. And most of all: Raymond the butler. Targent has already spotted Raymond with Descole. It was brief, but that seems like too much of a risk already. (...I've got nothing.)
- This is very unlikely; if you compare Sycamore's hair to what little we see of Descole's hair throughout the series, you can immediately tell that they don't match (ginger bread hair vs. blond-ish normal hair).
- Considered that at first too, but then figured that Sycamore's hair could easily be another wig from Descole's stash of disguises.
- Confirmed! Descole's alias without his mask is Desmond Sycamore. It was invented when Bronev/Descole wanted to live a normal life. He contacted Layton because he needed help to beat Targent to the legacy. His last scene heavily implies that Sycamore's look is itself a disguise, so no one really knows what he actually looks like.
- As the person who made the "Descole is Sycamore" theory, I actually wish that this is the case, only because it would make things more interesting. It could be that Raymond is working temporarily with Simon under Descole's or maybe even BRONEV'S orders as The Mole.
- Jossed.
- Or maybe...
- Jossed.
It would explain why Raymond is with him. Descole always has someone working with him in his plans and we always see them in the trailer (Jakes, Mr. Whistler, Masked Gentleman/Randall). There doesn’t seem to be anyone else that could fit the role of Descole’s partner but this. The fact that he's is the one who contacted Layton makes it seem even more like he’s helping Descole. In the trailer, Targent agents seem to be scattered all over the place to keep watch on everything. With Layton around, Bronev’s attention will be drawn to them while Descole can carry out his plans without being bothered.
- Jossed.
- She just didn't want her father obsessing over her. Though she is allowing her personality to take a back seat to Janice, and she's just enjoying the ride.
- Nina and Amelia were just test subjects to see how well it worked.
- Why would he want to transfer over someone else's soul and lose control of his own one, though?
- He would've used the machine to transfer his mind to someone else's body.
- Jossed.
- Slightly Jossed, they did release remastered versions for Mobile Phones, and possibly something like a Nintendo Switch version down the line - Sadly nothing like a PC version since it is a point-and-click game...
- Jossed.
- Problem is, Descole must be from a very rich family, judging from all the projects he builds, the accomplices he employs, and the clothes he wear; Descole wouldn't have needed to "steal" the money from his mother, if he really were that rich. His parents probably would've bought the shoes for him. Not to mention, the boy looks nothing like Descole, and looks way too young to be him, anyway (Spectre's Call takes place six years after that incident, at which time he must be thirteen at most, so Descole would be nineteen - far too young to be going about destroying towns with huge robots and fencing on top of a mobile fortress he built).
- Descole is older than Layton, though.
- Jossed.
- Or she's not using the Kurain technique. There are other techniques, but the Kurain is the only one that actually alters the appearance of the medium. We know there's others because Pearl asks Phoenix what training school he's from, though we also learnt hat only women can use the Kurain technique. Ergo, there must be other techniques, plus whatever Ami Fey built the Kurain technique on.
- Sycamore mentions he had a daughter at some point who would've been the same age as Emmy.
- There is a small resemblance between Sycamore and Emmy
- If he had believed her killed by Targent, it would provide further reason for wanting revenge against Targent.
- Bronev isn't actually Emmy's Uncle, but she was raised by him, and if the above WMG is true, would actually make Bronev her grandfather and Layton's neice.
- He does canonically have a son and daughter.
- The Professor got some closure with Clare after Unwound Future.
- He's known Janice for a while now, even after she stopped being his student, meeting up with her even 3yrs after her case was solved in Eternal Diva.
- Emmy, the only other person who'd likely fit, is probably Layton's niece.
- According to Melina, Janice is very, very fond of him.
- The Laytonmobile is an old 2CV which is in relatively good condition, meaning it's not all that old.
- The Targent uses 1950s-era military equipment which appears to be modeled off of US and Russian stuff of that era - In fact, their helicopters are pretty much just chinooks. In the Unwound Future, you can find stuff like a V2 and a Sherman Tank, while the family use the M1928's and the M79 'Bloop Tube' Grenade Launcher. Unwound future even has a nuclear power plant in it's background scenes, showing that they have nuclear power.
- Most of the Mechs and Equipment seen throughout the games are very analogue in design, looking like stuff designed from the mid 20th century. Don Paulo's flying machine is really just an early type of helicopter
- Vinyl records are still sold and used, and people still have black and white TVs (With some color ones seen in the anime). There are no cassettes or computers to be seen, minus the old fashioned IBM mainframe-style computers used back in the 1950s, meaning that the transistor hasn't surpassed the stage of amateur electronics
- In some concept art, the time machine background for The Unwound Future shows the year changing from a year in the 60's to a year in the 70's. Additionally, the prime minister mentions historical events like the space race, which would have started in the early 60s with Yuri Gagarin and ended with the Apollo 11 missions.
- Going by their appearance and position relative to the Houses of Parliament, Scotland Yard is located in what appears to be the Norman Shaw Buildings. The Met was based here until 1967.
- Additionally, Traditonal fashion in the UK would have been the same, rather it was counterculture (which is also portrayed as 50s rock-n-roll in the games) which changed dramatically. Even if they dress like the victorian era, that's probably also how alot of people dressed in Real life for the most part.
- Finally, given the lack of cold-war references (which would be most certainly prevalent in a game set in our 1960s), it's possible that there is no cold-war happening in their 1960s; possibly meaning that WW2 probably never happened due to their WW1 ending differently... If it even happened in the same way at all.
- Based on two commonalities.
- Both can talk to animals. Kat has a lesser version in that she can only talk to Sherl, and not just any animal.
- Both Luke and Katrielle have enormous appetites.
- Jossed by the anime, she's not biologically related to either of them.
- Jossed by the anime.
