Yeah, I think that Reks lived long enough to say what happened. Otherwise the white room thing is nonsensical, as you say.
I am certain that Balthier knows exactly who "Lamont" is. For one, he can't have been gone from Archades proper so long as to never have met him, and there is a ridiculous family resemblance. For another, Balthier strikes me as the kind of man who knows (to the best of his ability) exactly what is going on everywhere - it's part of being a sky pirate, really. Political upheaval has the potential to leave interesting prizes ripe for the plucking.
Better place to level than Leviathan: The Lhusu mines in Bhujerba. The Shunia Twinspan spawns ONLY Skull Defenders and Skeletons, who drop Bone Fragments (sell for 193 gil each) and occasionally Iron Helms (sell for 700 gil each.) I usually spend enough time grinding there to fit myself out with the absolute best available and stock up on all of the Grimoires (except the Canopic Jar), and it's both easy and quick, since 99 of those nice Bone Fragments comes out to 13K.
Someday I am going to write a fic of Balthier being fabulously ironic and Larsa being very much on his dignity about Larsa's little stunt as "Lamont."
