Ten years prior to the [[Dunan Unification War]], Luc ran into some form of trouble at the shrine in the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia]]. He did not talk about it and was always careful not to discuss it<ref>"10 years ago, he ran into some kinda trouble at the shrine.  I don't know the details, but someone told him to keep his mouth shut about it." - Luc ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.

After Tir and his party managed to beat the Golem, Luc, impressed that they had managed to beat his magic so quickly<ref>"Wow, you guys are really something, beating my magic like that I'm impressed, Imperial Guards." - Luc ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, told them that the Golem had merely been a test, and that he would now lead them to Leknaat<ref>"Take it easy. I know who you guys are. You've come to see Lady Leknaat, right? I just wanted to test you. I guess you're the real thing. Come this way, honored guests." - Luc ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

And none of your tricks now, do you hear?" - Leknaat ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, which Luc promised that he would do<ref>"Of course not, Ma'am. I would never trick anyone." - Luc ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

When [[Leknaat]] gifted the [[New State Army]] the [[Stone Tablet of Promise]] during the [[Dunan Unification War]], she also gifted them Luc, despite his own consternation<ref>"I'll also favor you with my great presence. It's not what I choose, but Lady Leknaat has ordered it." - Luc ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>. However, Luc was focused when he noticed the presence of the [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonian]] officer [[Sasarai]] in a skirmish at [[Radat Town]]. Following the battle, he revealed that he knew Sasarai well and told the New State Army to let him deal with him<ref>"Sasarai of Harmonia..... I know him well. Let me take care of him." - Luc ([[Suikoden II]])</ref>.

Luc's past was shrouded in mystery; he was raised by [[Leknaat]] in mysterious circumstance following an "incident" at the [[One Temple]] in [[Holy Kingdom of Harmonia|Harmonia]] and bore a striking resemblance to Sasarai.
