Updated Lauriam and Strelitzia Theory (Spoilers)

[5glitchers5]

The Specter Nobody in Chain/ Re: Chain Of Memories Of Memories is Strelitzia. Let's go over some proofs.
* It's feminine
* It wears a white robe similar to Strelitizia in the latest update, complete with no chains.
* The Specter Nobody represents a fallen angel (even down to the angel wings)
* Strelitzia is dead (a fallen angel)
* This Specter Nobody acts as Marluxia's Guardian Angel
* The hair on the 2nd phase is a bit like Strelitzia's

* How the first phase resembles a Strelitzia flower as some have pointed out


Now let's go over some dialogue hints/ foreshadowing.

"One day, I will be strong enough to carry you on my back." (First phase)


As you can see, she is indeed one day strong enough to carry her big brother on her back.

"Unless... you'd be my vanguard while I protect the rear." (2nd Phase)


As you can see, her brother is the Vanguard while she protects him from the rear (behind).

Previous theory with comparisons:

The True Reincarnation Theory (Eraqus and Striletzia)

You've heard the phrase that "Nobody dies in Kingdom Hearts", but the exception to the rule seems to be Master Eraqus. The narrative seemed to display that he was struck by Xehanort in Birth by Sleep, but we eventually find out that Eraqus spirit lives on through Terra's heart after Xehanort...

This guy makes a pretty good point too, especially with the 1st phase being inspired in design by the Strelitzia flower itself:

Yeah, this is what everyone has been thinking since Strelitzia and Lauriam were confirmed siblings. The recent story update only solidified that theory. All the pieces are lining up and I'm excited to see where this goes.

I think it's pretty cool how UX takes these one-offs from the mainline series (like the Specter and the lab in the World Terminus) and are turning them into something more.
