:[1 year ago]
[Xehanort and Eraqus are seen playing chess.]
*'''{{kh|Xehanort}}''': ''"Have you heard of the ancient Keyblade War?"''
*'''{{kh|Eraqus}}''': ''"Huh?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Of course I have."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Long ago, Keyblade wielders waged a war over the ownership of light."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Yeah, the Master's favorite story."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I wonder what they planned on doing with Kingdom Hearts after... making it appear."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Who knows? I don't get why anyone would initiate a war."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"So..."''
[The screen zooms in on Xehanort.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"you know the "Lost Masters"!"''
[The screen moves to Eraqus.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Who?"''
[The screen moves to show both of them.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"They're the ones who started the Keyblade War."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Never heard of 'em. Where'd you hear about that?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Or... they're the ones for whom the war started."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"I'm not following you."''
[The screen shows Eraqus.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"You can drop the facade."''
*'''Eraqus''': '''Facade?"''
[The screen moves to Xehanort.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''""On that land shall darkness prevail and light expire." A prospective Keyblade Master should know this."''
[The screen moves to show both of them.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"If you say so."''
[The screen moves to a Keyblade hanging on the wall.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"The Gazing Eye sees the fate of the world."''
[The screen moves back to Xehanort and Eraqus.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"The future—it's already been written."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Really? I'm not so sure about that. Besides, who's to say I can't change it? And maybe light will prevail."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Pretty confident. But things aren't in your favor."''
[The screen moves to Eraqus.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Perhaps. But unlike darkness, there is more to light than meets the eye. You might be surprised."''
[The screen moves to Xehanort.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Oh, I hope so."''
[The screen zooms out and goes black.]
[Vor is seen walking through the Courtyard in Dwarf's Woodlands.]
*'''{{kh|Vor}}''': ''"Well, it's official. I'm lost."''
*'''Vor''': ''"But I did find this amazing castle! I wonder if anyone's home."''
*'''Vor''': ''"Oh, I think I hear someone."''
[Vor enters the castle, where she sees the Queen and the Magic Mirror. Vor hides behind a pillar.]
*'''{{kh|Magic Mirror}}''': ''"What wouldst thou know now, my Queen?"''
*'''{{kh|The Queen}}''': ''"Magic Mirror on the wall, who shall forever tule o'er all?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"Thou will, my liege."''
[The Queen smiles and walks away.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Wow, that mirror knows all the answers!"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Maybe... it can help me too."''
[Vor approaches the Magic Mirror and the screen goes black.]
[Xehanort and Eraqus run into Vor in the Dark Forest.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"There you are! We were worried."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Are you all right?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Yeah."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"You said you wanted to come with us, and then you went off on your own!"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"We need to stick together."''
*'''Vor''': ''"I know, I'm sorry. I was chasing a butterfly, and then I looked around and you were gone."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Why am I not surprised?"''
*'''???''': ''"Hurry, men! Hurry!"''
[Xehanort, Eraqus, and Vor look toward the voice, and see three Dwarfs.]
*'''{{kh|Grumpy}}''': ''"Bah! I told ya that mine tunnel was brewin' trouble!"''
*'''{{kh|Doc}}''': ''"That's why I'm coming with ya!"''
*'''{{kh|Happy}}''': ''"No time for fussin'. We gotta help 'em outta there!"''
*'''Grumpy''': ''"Don't ya think I know that?!"''
[The Dwarfs run off.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"They must be from this world, but I don't think they're likely to harm us."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"I don't think so either. It also sounded like they had their hands full."''
*'''Vor''': ''"Something about a mine?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"There must've been a cave-in."''
*'''Vor''': ''"If someone's trapped, we might be able to help!"''
[Vor runs off.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"What did we just say about going off on your own?!"''
[Eraqus heads after her.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"You're one to talk."''

[Xehanort, Eraqus, and Vor run through the mine, until they reach the Dwarfs.]
*'''Grumpy''': ''"Who are ya? An' what're you lookin' at!?"''
*'''Doc''': ''"Aw, don't find...uh-uh, mind him."''
*'''Happy''': ''"Yeah, it's nice to meet ya!"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"We thought you might need a hand."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"So someone's trapped behind that boulder..."''
[Vor summons her Keyblade and walks up to the boulder.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"What are you gonna do?"''
[Vor holds out her Keyblade.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"That's not a bad idea. A Keyblade might do the trick."''
[Vor dismissed her Keyblade.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Or not...?"''
[Vor lifts the boulder and tosses it behind her. Bashful peeks through the hole.]
*'''{{kh|Bashful}}''': ''"Gosh, thanks!"''
[Bashful jumps out the hole to join the other Dwarfs, and Sneezy comes out behind him.]
*'''{{kh|Sneezy}}''': ''"Ah-ah-achoo!"''
*'''Sneezy''': ''"*sniff* It was awful dusty."''
[Sneezy joins the other Dwarfs, and Sleepy comes out the hole.]
*'''{{kh|Sleepy}}''': ''"Yawwwn... Yeah, it was too dark to sleep good in there."''
[Sleepy joins the other Dwarfs, and Dopey comes out the hole.]
[Dopey grabs Vor's hands, and jumps with joy. He then joins the others.]
*'''Happy''': ''"We're mighty grateful for your help, friends!"''
*'''Grumpy''': ''"Hmph! We coulda fixed it fine."''
*'''Grumpy''': ''"But...I s'pose we oughta thank ya."''
*'''Doc''': ''"Now all seven of us can go back to work."''
*'''Vor''': ''"Seven, huh? Just like us."''
[Eraqus runs to Vor.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"That was awesome!"''
[Xehanort senses something, and looks behind him.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"We've got company."''
[The others look while a Driller Mole crashes down from the ceiling.]
*'''Grumpy''': ''"Oh, for pete's sake! Now what!?"''
[The Driller Mole moves around, and digs into the ground.]
*'''Doc''': ''"If this doesn't stop, the whole mine'll collapse!"''
[Vor summons her Keyblade and runs to the Driller Mole.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Get somewhere safe!"''
[The Dwarfs run off, as Eraqus and Xehanort summon their Keyblades and join Vor.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Do you think it caused the cave-in?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I don't know, but the only thing to do now is to—"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Clobber it!"''

*'''Eraqus''': ''"Whe're supposed to be tracking darkness, right? I don't know if we're gonna get anywhere by just defeating random Heartless that we encounter."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"We all knew it wasn't going to be easy."''
*'''Vor''': ''"Actually, it might be."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"A castle?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"An all-knowing mirror?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Come see for yourselves!"''

[Xehanort, Eraqus, and Vor approach the Magic Mirror.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"So this is it."''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"What wouldst ye know?"''
[Eraqus runs up to the Magic Mirror.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Ooh, can I go first? I want to know how to beat Xehanort in chess!"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"...Eraqus."''
*'''Vor''': ''"...Eraqus."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"It's a game with black and white pieces called Alba and Ater and—"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Please ignore him."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Aww..."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"We're looking for some classmates who went missing. Do you know where they are?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"The friends you seek travel hither and yon. Along separate paths, alone they forge on."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"So they're on their own. Let's see if we can at least track down one of them."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Can you tell us where Vidar is?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"The one—"''
*'''The Queen''': ''"Silence! Must I remind you whom you serve!?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Who're you?"''
[The Queen enters the room.]
*'''The Queen''': ''"Insolent boy! From this castle I rule all."''
[The Queen walks past the others to the Magic Mirror.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Oh, um... Well, we—uh—we heard about the mirror and wanted to check it out."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Do you mind if we ask a few questions?"''
*'''The Queen''': ''"You barge into my keep and dare ask a favor? The Mirror is mine... and mine alone!"''
*'''The Queen''': ''"Mmm... But you may approach this once... if you wish."''
[The Queen smashes a potion against the mirror.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I have a bad feeling about this."''
*'''The Queen''': ''"Magic Mirror on the wall, consume these fools once and for all!"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Huh!?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"What!?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Hey!"''
[A bright light shines from the mirror and pulls Xehanort, Eraqus, and Vor in.]
[The three end up in the mirror.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Where are we?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Not in the castle, that's for sure."''
[The Magic Mirror's giant face appears, shooting a fireball, which Xehanort deflects with his Keyblade.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Look out!"''
[Vor summons her Keyblade.]
*'''Vor''': ''"It's the Magic Mirror!"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Why does it reek of darkness?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I doubt it's gonna answer any of our questions now. You two ready?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"You bet!"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Of course!"''

[Xehanort, Eraqus, and Vor end up outside the mirror. They slowly dismiss their Keyblades.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Are we back?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I think so."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Phew! It looks like she's gone too. All right, let's find out where Vidar is."''
[Xehanort nods and approaches the mirror when they hear a voice behind them.]
*'''{{kh|Vidar}}''': ''"That's not necessary."''
[The three turn around and find Vidar.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Vidar!"''
*'''Vidar''': ''"Hi, everyone."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"We've been looking for you!"''
*'''Vidar''': ''"I figured you'd show up. Master Odin sent you, right?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Yeah. ...Wait, you knew? Then why didn't you just come home?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Are you alone?"''
*'''Vidar''': ''"You must be Xehanort."''
*'''Vidar''': ''"The visitant."''
*'''Vidar''': ''"I see why you caught the Master's eye. There's something...different about you."''
*'''Vidar''': ''"And you, Vor. There's something on your mind, isn't there?"''
*'''Vidar''': ''"You're wondering if you really belong with these friends of yours. Why not join us instead, then?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Huh?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"What are you talking about?"''
[Eraqus grabs Vidar's arm.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Aren't you coming back with us?"''
[Vidar brushes off Eraqus's hand.]
*'''Vidar''': ''"I can't. Not yet. There's something I have to do."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"What is it?"''
*'''Vidar''': ''"You'll see."''
*'''Vidar''': ''"I need your help. What do you say?"''
[Vidar holds out his arm to Vor.]
*'''Vor''': ''"I...I belong..."''
[Eraqus steps between Vor and Vidar.]
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Vor, you're coming with us, right?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Actually, I...I asked the mirror a question of my own."''
[A flashback shows of Vor's first visit to the mirror's chamber.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Maybe... it can help me too."''
[Vor approaches the mirror.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Can I ask you something?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"What wouldst thou know?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Will I ever become a Keyblade Master?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"With friends thy heart doth lie, content and free of woe. In comfort stagnant calm, forward thou fail to go."''
*'''Vor''': ''"That's not true!"''
[Vor angrily runs close to the mirror.]
*'''Vor''': ''"I want to become a Keyblade Master as much as everyone else. Stop making things up!"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"No power have I save to offer what is true."''
*'''Vor''': ''"...Oh."''
[The flashback ends.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Lately, I've started to realize how I really feel. I like what we have now, but if we all keep studying and eventually pass the exam, we'll go our separate ways."''
*'''Vor''': ''"And I'm not sure I'm ready for that."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Vor, you and I— we're never gonna change. Isn't that right?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Change is inevitable. You should embrace it and learn to build new relateionships."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"...That's not what you were supposed to say."''
*'''Vor''': ''"Thanks, Eraqus. Thanks, Xehanort."''
*'''Vor''': ''"...I've made up my mind. The longer I stay in this bubble, the harder it'll be for me to leave."''
[Vor walks off.]
*'''Vor''': ''"Let's go, Vidar."''
[Vidar follows Vor through a Corridor of Light.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Her heart and her mind are made up."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Vor..."''
[Eraqus thinks back on their time in class.]
*'''Vor''': ''"So... why do you all want to become Keyblade Masters?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"It was more of an obligation at first. Like a family tradition. But now, I know in my heart that I need to become one and put an end to darkness once and for all."''
*'''{{kh|Bragi}}''': ''"Serious much?"''
*'''Bragi''': ''"For me, it's easy. I want to do what's right."''
*'''{{kh|Urd}}''': ''"I agree that power and justice go hand in hand. My dream is to learn and explore. If I become a Keyblade Master, I'll be able to see all the worlds for myself."''
*'''{{kh|Baldr}}''': ''"I want to protect what's important to me."''
*'''{{kh|Hermod}}''': ''"What you all said. Plus, I want to uphold the greater order. Simple as that."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I don't know why. But...I have friends... I want to see again."''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Wait, why would you need to become a Keyblade Master for that?"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Fine, don't tell me. Vor, what about you?"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Oh, me? I..."''
*'''Vor''': ''"I'm not telling!"''
*'''Vor''': ''"Wishes don't come true if you say them out loud. So now none of you will get to become Keyblade Masters. Ha!"''
*'''Eraqus''': ''"Hey! No fair!"''
[Eraqus chases Vor around the classroom.]
[Back in the present, Xehanort and Eraqus leave the castle.]
:[64 years later]
[Master Xehanort enters the mirror chamber through a Corridor of Darkness.]
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"What wouldst thou know?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Do you recognize me?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"A young boy then, now a man grown. Fewer hairs grace thy head, but you are known."''
[Master Xehanort touches his head.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"A demonstration of my resolve."''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"What else wouldst thou know?"''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Over the years, I have lost many comrades. Some passed on, while others chose a different path."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"However, there will always be a special place in my heart... for those friends I never met save in my dreams as a young lad."''
[Master Xehanort walks up to the mirror.]
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Alas, my efforts to find them have been in vain. I don't even know their names. But I can see their faces still."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"I ask you: did they ever exist, or were they merely a figment of my imagination?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"Much lies beyond our world,<br>Even more beyond our time,<br>Some in this world reside,<br>Their toll has yet to chime."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"How can you be sure? Without even their names?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"Your heart speaks more clearly than your words."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"Where are they now?"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"Where indeed?"''
[A wasteland covered in Keyblades is shown.]
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"Amongst an ocean of keys on a vast barren land,"''
*'''Magic Mirror''': ''"a boy bearing great light and darkness doth stand."''
*'''Xehanort''': ''"The Keyblade Graveyard!"''
[Master Xehanort summons a Corridor of Darkness and leaves.]
