My thoughts on the theory of Brain being Eraqus's grandfather

[Double OKP 171]

So, there's this theory that's been going around that Brain is Eraqus's grandfather. And after the most recent Union χ[Cross] update, it seems more plausible. Though, I don't believe it is true. First of all, it just doesn't make sense time-wise. In the KHIII Secret Reports, it is revealed that Eraqus is a blueblood, descended from the ancient masters, and Nomura-san himself confirmed he is descended from one of the Union Leaders. In the Union χ[Cross] update, Confrontation, it is revealed that the Master's Defender, which is known to be Eraqus's Keyblade, is wielded by Brain. Brain is an ancient master, and ancient means really, really, super old. It just doesn't make sense for him to be Eraqus's grandfather if he's from the ancient past. Also, in the KHIII Secret Reports, Luxu says the people he vesseled could fill volumes. It wouldn't make sense for him to vessel that many people in just three generations, right? Secondly, when Sora finds the Master's Defender on the beach of Destiny Islands, Donald comments it looks so old. It being passed down through three generations and looking so old? To me at least, that doesn't sound right. I think Eraqus's grandfather died while battling the darkness, that being one of the reasons why Eraqus hates the darkness so much. (But in Dark Road, the worlds are strangely still restoring themselves from the second Keyblade War. Could prove me wrong...)

ive been thinking brain might be an ancestor of eraqus' for a while now but nothing as close as a grandfather

I’m conscious that the Master specified two generations of Keyblade passing on with No Name... I’m content to believe that the gap between KH UX and KH BBS isn’t all that much.

I really hope he doesn't end up being Eraqus' grandpa. It would be super lame if it turned out that Ux all happened only like 120-ish years before the main story. Make it like 1000 years!!!

The Master never specified anything. Luxu was instructed to simply pass the No Name to his apprentice, then their apprentice to their apprentice, and so on until someone of the darkness wielded it, who was Xehanort.
