I’m calling it, LtA will imply that ky learned that sol is a gear during TML. Probably from overhearing sol’s ending with justice. This is my tinfoil hat theory because of the amount of times i’ve seen these events mentioned in the eng and jpn fandoms despite never being mentioned in the games.
If the GG Comic Anthology is canon, then that could be used to confirm this too, that Ky found out Sol was a Gear during the tournament fight with Justice where she breaks Sol's limiter. However, in the official recap chapter on the ASW website, Ky gets his ass kicked by Justice and passes out before that happens (page 14): guiltygear.com/ggst/en/news/post-789/
It looks like Ky might pass out in the GGCA story (MEET AGAIN) too, but it's less clear than the recap comic (remember to read right to left):

Ky has enough energy to shout at Sol but then he slouches forward and the next few pages are Holy Order flashbacks, which imply he may have passed out and is having flashbacks to when him and Sol served together.
I can't find anything that confirms more definitively when Ky found out that Sol was a Gear, but it would had to have been during their time in the Holy Orders together. Sol does all this crazy acrobatic shit and gets chomped and blasted by Gears and doesn't die? Ky's smart, I think he could've put the pieces together haha Maybe Sol even just straight up told him at one point. He doesn't seem to hide the fact that he's a Gear, just that he doesn't really like talking about it.
I'll try to remember to come back to this if I find something that talks about when Ky finds out though. It could still be in Lightning the Argent even if it wasn't during the events of the Missing Link tournament arc itself.
