If you don't want to get spoiled by the latest story advancements in the JP version of KHUX, then stop reading.

 

There's some interesting little details I've noticed about the latest story advancements with Lauriam (Marluxia's Somebody) and Strelitzia. Here's what we know for sure: Strelitzia was killed by someone. And Lauriam showed up at the Keyblade Graveyard as the last Dandelion Union Leader. The general consensus is that Lauriam is who killed Strelitzia, but we don't know that for sure. Many people say it could've been Blaine or that it could've been someone completely unrelated who's watching from behind the scenes who then told Ventus he was a Dandelion Union Leader, when he actually wasn't. I've noticed an interesting detail that might put to rest these theories and will further validate the general consensus of the murderer being Lauriam.

 

There are people getting upset about the fact that Marluxia's Somebody is in this game because it means that he's a Keyblade wielder. He's a Dandelion Union Leader, which means he has a Keyblade, right? Wrong. Maybe he was never able to summon a Keyblade and become a Dandelion or even a Union member, he was just an ordinary resident of Daybreak Town, so he killed Strelitzia and took her place to force himself into the Dandelions to try and become a Keyblade wielder. Assuming he's the one who killed her. "The Keyblade's power-- how I've longed to make it my own." - Marluxia in Re:Chain of Memories

 

Another reason people say that he is a Keyblade wielder is because of the noise of the weapon that killed Strelitzia. People are saying it's the typical noise you hear from a Keyblade slash. And this brings me to my point. The small, but interesting detail I've noticed. That is not the Keyblade slash noise. Listen to it closely. Sound familiar? Compare it to this.

 

And another interesting thing I've noticed is that the hairclip on Strelitzia's hair is the roman numeral for the number 11. Marluxia is the number 11 in Organization XIII. Nomura warned us all this time.

Holy crud, Elfdemon, those are very accurate observations you've made! That is just crazy! And now that you mention this, it would make sense for Lauriam doing what he did! If he wasn't able to get a Keyblade, he would try to force his way into the Dandelions in order to learn the secrets of obtaining the Keyblade's power! That could definitely work! And for people who might think he can't make it in the long run, just look at Braig! He's wanted a Keyblade for the longest time, but he hasn't gotten one yet, and he's a very dangerous threat! So just imagine Lauriam!

 

I'm sensing big things are afoot!

That's actually very interesting

Yep! It just makes Lauriam's involvement in this all the more interesting!

Dang, it all makes sense now!

I figured he done it to get his place in the Union Leaders, but I didn't have any idea why... until now

Now we need to know why Lauriam killed Strelitzia... And my speculation about it is quite stupid.

That hairclip could also be a IX, tbh

Very interesting stuff. However in regards to the comparison of the two sounds, they sound close, but the first is of a slash. The second is of a weapon being unsummoned and that difference causes me to hesitate to believe this fully. If you could provide a sound clip of a slash that sounds similar from one of the other games, that would be great.

Now we know why Marluxia is called Graceful Assassin... I was shocked when I saw Marluxia in the game and I started wondering if Luxord, Demyx and his best friend Larxene will make an appearance in the game...

I'm actually thrilled to see how the story unfolds! I just hope they give all the answers in Union X (how Ventus and Marluxia survived all these years until the present, whereabouts of MoM and Lucy (since the other five are probably dead) and a little more light on Maleficent schemes, instead of giving all those answers on KH3 and finishing UX with a meeh ending.
