{{nihongo|'''Destiny's Embrace'''|デスティニープレイス|Desutinī Pureisu|lit. "Destiny Place"}} is a [[Keyblade]] that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''.

When Kairi is still a child leaving in the [[Radiant Garden]], she is saved from a swarm of [[Unversed]] by [[Aqua]]. Kairi gives the Keyblade Master some flowers as thanks, rewarding her with the Keychain for the Destiny's Embrace.

A separate instance of the Keychain is later given to [[Kairi]] by [[Riku]] in [[The World That Never Was]], in order to help fend off a swarm of [[Heartless]] attacking [[Sora]]. Like Sora's Keyblade, this Keyblade is from the [[Realm of Light]].{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II}}<ref>'''''[[Director's Secret Report XIII]]''''', p. 28; '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "There isn't necessarily one Keyblade for the dark side and one for the light side, just as many as there exist people with qualified hearts. Concerning the conditions to wield one, at this stage, 'those with strong hearts' is the only obvious one. However, less obvious conditions still exist and there are still plans for an opportunity to reveal those. Riku's 'Way to the Dawn' and Kairi's Keyblade are naturally the same type of Keyblade as Sora's. However there is no particular explanation for the Soul Eater's transfer and occurrence, as well as Riku's handing it to Kairi. When there isn't a normal process of acquisition, I think it's okay to think there is some deeper meaning there."</ref> Later, when Sora is about to face Xemnas within the [[Dreaming Realm]] of [[The World That Never Was]], he explains that the connected hearts of his friends are his power, and an image of Kairi wielding the Destiny's Embrace appears alongside all of his other friends.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}}

The Keyblade is round and curvaceous to the point of appearing harmless. One side of the hilt is formed in the shape of a breaking ocean wave, while the other is formed into a beige vine of sand that wraps around the shaft, which is colored to resemble a sunset. The vine connects to a bouquet of colorful flowers, which form the teeth of the Keyblade. A red silken [[Keychain]] connects the hilt to the [[Paopu Fruit]] token, a recurring symbol of the bond between Sora and Kairi.
