==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
In their journey through the [[Sleeping Worlds]], [[Sora]] and [[Riku]] both encounter a younger version of [[Mickey]] in [[Symphony of Sorcery]]. The King is not yet able to control his magical power, causing great havoc with his spells. Both Sora and Riku are tasked with retrieving Sound Ideas in order to rid a musical book of darkness and return [[The Mysterious Tower|Yen Sid's tower]] to normal.

Ultimately, the Keyblade wielders return with the Sound Ideas. Sora's Sound Idea is the piano melody of "Dearly Beloved", while Riku's is a string harmony. Mickey informs each wielder that one Sound Idea is not enough; having faith in each other, Sora's and Riku's Sound Ideas appear in the other's worlds. When combined, they create a powerful song that frees Mickey and restores the world, allowing Sora to confront the [[Nightmare]] within the musical book.

The ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' version of "Dearly Beloved" was arranged by Yoko Shimomura, as with the other games, while the performance was orchestrated and conducted by Kaoru Wada. It retains the original theme with pianos, violins, glockenspiel, and plucked violins. The melody is then passed to flute, followed by a colorful waltz-like part which includes a tambourine and quick clarinet ornaments. Unlike other versions, it also switches between a 4/4 and 3/4 time signature – a reference to the "3D" in the title, according to Yoko Shimomura.

In Symphony of Sorcery, the version of "Dearly Beloved" formed by Sora's and Riku's Sound Ideas is far simpler. It only features the main melody, played on piano, and a simple string backing. This arrangement is reminiscent of the original "Dearly Beloved" from ''Kingdom Hearts''.
