Guest Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) As the title states, this is a non-spoiler theory, so why have I came to such an unusual conclusion, well, this is the factor that came into play. Artificial Dream Eaters The Master of Masters created Chirithy. A Dream Eater. As everyone knows, Dream Eaters can only exist in the Realm of Sleep. Artificial Dream Eaters are an exception to the rule because they were created and birthed in the real world. But what has this got to do with the Fortellers? well, what if the Master of Masters artificially created them too? Here are a couple of things to note with regards to the Master of Masters. In the trailers, the Fortellers rendezvous point is like a lab of sorts. With flasks, test tubes and books on books on books. He may have wanted to create the Fortellers as a means of better understanding the context of future events. After all, he does have the all seeing eye that can see into the future, and so he may have wanted to create the Fortellers as future-proofing himself for the inevitable. Plus, if we look at the Fortellers, what's the key element that stands out? their masks. They're symbolic of animals. Now, it's easy to connotate those masks with the Seven Deadly Sins, but I think a more simple explanation is that they're Dream Eaters. Now with regular Dream Eaters (with the exception of Chirithy, Riku and Ventus Nightmare), the majority are a mix of two animals or more. The Fortellers can still fit that category? why? because they're a mix of a human and the mask that they wear, for example, Ava is a human + fox Dream Eater. With Dream Eaters, you have a Spirit and a Nightmare. Well, here are our Spirit Dream Eaters from X... And here are our Nightmare Dream Eaters from X... Plus, it makes contextual sense of why the Unchained Realm exists in the first place, Spirit Dream Eater Ava has created it to let the Dandelions live on outside the Keyblade War, and as a Dream Eater, her and the other Fortellers' can also survive the Keyblade War as "Lost Masters" if the world where the Keyblade War took place stayed in slumber.

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted January 12, 2017 Hmm, this is a very interesting way to put it! I definitely like this theory better than the Rebirth theory, and I think it'd be badass if the Foretellers were actually Dream Eaters! I mean hey, if Riku could be a Dream Eater, why can't the Foretellers! The Master Of Masters definitely seems like the studious type, so maybe he did create them like he did Chirithy! By the way, I'm avoiding spoilers for Back Cover and 0.2, so I'm not replying to this as if I knew what happened in either of these games! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't worry, this post and discussion will be entirely spoiler free. Regarding the rebirth theory, one of the reasons as to why it was made in the first place was, to link the similarities between the heroes and Foretellers based on their visual cues. You know what other characters are visually similar to the heroes? Dream Eaters! Meowjesty is a straight up colour rip off Mickey Mouse. That doesn't change the fact that, aside colour scheme, they're entirely unrelated. The Foretellers can be exactly the same in that regard. Dream Eaters that coincidentally look like the Keyblade heroes we know and nothing more than that in terms of common connections. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The similarities are there, and yet they are completely different! Yeah, I could get behind this! It'd be cool if this theory of yours proved true!
