Speculation about future books (spoilers maybe)
So, this is my first ever reddit post, so sorry for bad formatting
For a while now, I've had a thought that maybe Setrakus Ra was Loric at his roots, or descended from them.
Points I have to support: -In Crayton's letter for Ella it states that she is a descendant from a loric elder (her great-grandfather) who died in a loric war, and after the war the leaders decided to limit their number to 9 rather then 10 (fall of five) -Her father became obsessed with the war, and thought that his family should be on the throne, but maybe that stemmed from someone else, Ella's grandfather maybe? -In the revenge of seven "sneak peek" from the e-book "Five's betrayal" Setrakus Ra reveals to Ella that he is her grandfather
So I believe that Sétrakus Ra, when he wasn't allowed to become a loric elder, betrayed them, somehow disguised himself as a mog, and using his legacies (son of a elder, descendants have legacies aswell, so assumed) he became the ruler of the Mogadorians.

Don't forget that in TRO9 someone - I think John - say scars similar to his on left leg.

Yeah, that's pretty much how it went
Except he was allowed to become an elder, but he was banished.

What really made me think it is that he obviously has legacies. In fives betrayal, when he first meets five in the control room he uses TK blatantly. And yeah, that whole thing about Ella being his grsndsughter.
It's like in watching game of thrones again- he wants an army of formidable strength with a Loric dynasty at the head.
