extrapolating comment, bear with me here.
Let's go with the idea that I'm the missing princess/queen/surviving heir to some throne of Philos. We escape our dying planet through the wormhole, arriving on a new planet as beings of energy whereupon we start warping reality around us because we're fish in a different sort of ocean now. Some of us learn to shape ourselves into the forms of the local species, some of us just stay chaotic. Maybe when we crossed, we brought everything with us including OUR dangerous wildlife which would explain the Wanderers who really are a danger.
So Xavier, beloved loyal guard of a shattered kingdom, protects the small heir while also trying to make this new world into a home which requires some focused slaughter as Lumiere. Cue whatever the hell happened to us, age 7, and he loses us. We turn up later amnesiac and unaware of our very special heritage and he just.. leaves that alone? No, wait, choke collar. The Bad Guys™ take us or a bunch of us for experimentation to exploit that which makes us valuable only we ..escape, or are released or.. something something?
It could technically work. We absolutely could have met Rafayel as a child and forgotten him. Grandma breaks us out of the high tech bio medical facility, guilty of her war crimes and we grow up with Caleb, who is probably also a test subject in the lab with us. Zayne has his medical thing going on, either in on the project or working with Grandma after it to help us back to some semblance of normalcy.
Some of this has to be at least in smoking gun distance!
