I knew the Lumiere citizens were Aline's creation (again why I don't have the greatest sympathy for them) and I personally, without any in-game rationale for this, suspect that the citizens of Lumiere represent people from their real world. Aline, being much older, would've been able to meet a lot of people. It would also explain with Alicia couldn't repaint them all in her ending.

To give the 'olympus anon' credit, looking back at the ending, the sky is very ominous.
