Luccia = Lucca?

[Chrono'99]

Azala stated that Mother Earth sides with humanity. "Mother Earth" was changed in the NA version to "heaven", probably because all the ecological/religious stuff from Azala were too much to bear for Nintendo of America.

Damn school blocked it.

Mmh can't hotlink. Here's the summary: http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/snes/game/563538.html

and the Azala stuff:

(Jap translation)
 Ayla: Come! Azala! Come!
Azala: No good! Mother Earth has made her desision!


<scene with Azala, right before heading outside to Black Tyrano>
Azala: You still came..... This is the final round.
       Fast or slow, (the victor?) will be decided.
       Us Dinosaur People, or you damned apes? [which] Side will survive on
       this land?   [is an unfinished sentence]
 Ayla: That determine by Mother Earth's descision. Ayla fight!
Azala: Can you hear that voice? Hu hu,   [can't translate rest of line]

Azala: Red Star.... fall... and stain Mother Earth red!
       [can't translate next line]
       Hu hu hu.
       This Black Tyrano will erase you apes eternally from history!

*after battle*

       Uu.... Have the heavens chosen you apes.....?
       Ku--, Listen, Apes, and spread the word.
       We Dinosaur People fought to challenge (our) fate of (our) proud and
       lordly people being wiped out.......
 Ayla: Understood.
Azala: In the beginning, a giant rock of burning flames falls....
       The red hot fireball scorches everything.
       Mother Earth is consumed. Before long, cooling begins. Ice settles in,
       and a long era of intense cold will come.....

 Ayla: Come! Azala! Come!
Azala: No good! Mother Earth has decided!
Azala: The future.....
 Ayla: Future? What about future?
Azala: The future is/will.... [speech ends here]

Mmmmmmmmh, er... Azala still mentioned heaven, but with all the references to Mother Earth, it makes you wonder.

[SilentMartyr]

Yea, the heavens question still can loom. But I would like to see what those untranslatable lines say.

CC states that Luccia and Lucca worked together on scientific things. Theories, gadgets etc.

Also, In RD, it's Porre that burns down Lucca's orphanage. But under Lynx's control pretty much.

I don't remember anything about Luccia working with Lucca on scientific things. Sure they knew each other and Luccia became a scientist, but that's about it.

Actually, if you visit the fortuneteller in Termina with Luccia, he outright says to her, "You will always be under the watchful eye of your former master." During the letter to Kid sequence, she admits to working with  Lucca. What more proof do you need?

[IshitoxRuchianna]

I think it would be real hard for Lynx not to see that Lucca would be right there near him in Viper's Manor... Plus Lucca doesn't have a Porrean brother that gets cyborgized à la Darth Vader...

Wait...what? Grobyc is Luccia's brother?
