The main island is where the residents live and go to school; Kairi and Selphie are known to go to the same school. The main island also has a small beach and dock. There appears to be a fairly large town in the background, with a long clay path leading to the beach. Sora's house can briefly be seen before Sora encounters the [[Darkside]]. However, the only portion of the house shown is Sora's bedroom during the storm. | |||
The | The smaller island, where Sora, Riku, Kairi, [[Selphie]], [[Tidus]], and [[Wakka]] play, is where all of the playable scenes take place. It is reached by canoe from the main island. The {{nihongo|'''{{a|Seashore}}'''|海辺|Umibe}} area is naturally covered in yellow sandy beaches, exotic trees and shrubbery, and wooden constructions. There is a {{nihongo|'''{{a|Seaside Shack}}'''|海辺の小屋|Umibe no Koya}} and a large treehouse built into an enormous tree. The Seaside Shack contains the island's only [[Save Point]]. A miniature island is settled next to the island and can be reached by crossing a bridge (which can be accessed by using the stairs in the Seaside Shack mentioned above or alternatively, by swimming towards a ladder on the opposite side of the island, and then climbing it). Sora can also have duels with Wakka, Selphie and Tidus nearby in the first game. Sora and Riku often practice their sword fights at the place where the friends can watch the sunset—past the Bridge, on the miniature island. On that island is a crooked palm tree that grows [[paopu fruit]]s. Local myth dictates that the two people who share one will have their destinies intertwined. The {{nihongo|'''{{a|Cove}}'''|入江|Irie}} at the back of the island has an obstacle course that Sora and Riku use during their competitive challenges. | ||

The {{nihongo|'''{{a|Secret Place}}'''|秘密の場所|Himitsu no Basho}} is a cave hidden behind the island's waterfall, where the children visited during their childhood. Sora and Riku first discovered it when they were young children. There is a door in the cave which is actually the [[Keyhole]] of the world. The cave's walls are covered in chalk drawings, some hinting at the earlier encounters of the children. Among them is a drawing of Sora and Kairi sharing a paopu fruit. Riku enters here near the beginning of the game and opens the door, unleashing the [[Heartless]] onto the islands. Whether he did so knowingly and willingly is unknown, though it is likely that the words of [[Xehanort]] influenced him to do so. | |||
Sora fights the Darkside in the '''{{a|Storm-tossed Island}}''', an area that broke off from the rest of the islands during the storm. | |||

[[ | Many years ago, a youth named [[Xehanort]] lived on Destiny Islands. He was visited by [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]], his future [[Heartless]], who revealed to him their plan to create [[Real Organization XIII|the thirteen seekers of darkness]]. Ansem granted Xehanort with the power to travel through time, entrusting him with the task of finding him, [[Xemnas]], [[Braig]], [[Vanitas]] and eight others to serve as members of their group. Xehanort would later return from the future when his time limit expired, lacking any memory of what happened; however, the events were engraved in his heart, leaving him with a strong desire to leave Destiny Islands. Seeing the world as "too small", Xehanort eventually managed to leave for the [[Land of Departure]]. | ||

Many years later Xehanort returns as an old man, intending to leave his dying, comatose apprentice, [[Ventus]], at the islands for his final days. However, Ventus's broken heart connects with that of the newborn Sora, and he revives, summoning his Keyblade. Seeing further use in the boy, Xehanort immediately takes him to Master Eraqus at the Land of Departure. | Many years later Xehanort returns as an old man, intending to leave his seemingly dying, comatose apprentice, [[Ventus]], at the islands for his final days.

Terra sees a vision of the man and then sees what Riku will become. This convinces him to choose Riku as his successor so that one day he may wield the Keyblade. | ||
Aqua arrives shortly after Terra leaves and also notices Sora and Riku. She recognizes that their friendship is identical to the bond between Ventus and Terra, and decides to choose Sora as her successor.

Sora tries to fight the Shadows, but couldn't harm them at all with his [[Wooden Sword]]. He finds Riku, who is surrounded by darkness.

Once out of the darkness, he sees that Riku has disappeared. With the Keyblade now under his control, Sora fights and defeats the Shadows that he could not harm before. He then finds an apparently-ill Kairi in the Secret Place.

Landing on the Islands as they are slowly crumbling into darkness, Sora fights and defeats the [[Darkside]] for the second time, but fails to save his home, and is whisked away on his journey to [[Traverse Town]]. | Upon arriving at the island that night, Sora discovers his friends came as well, and the world has been overrun with [[Shadow]]s.

==Trivia== | |||
*In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Sora confirms that Destiny Islands' residents celebrate Christmas. | |||
*Inside the Secret Place in ''Kingdom Hearts'', there are sketches of Donald, Goofy, and a {{ff|Chocobo}} on the right side. On the left there are sketches of a dragon, Disney Castle, and a world that has a crown on the top on one of the lower rocks. Even the four suits of cards and what seem to be [[Bit Sniper]]s can be seen. | |||
*The orientation between the Main Island and the Small Island is somewhat ambiguous. Although ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'' depicts the Small Island's miniature islet (accessible from the Small Island by bridge) as facing the open ocean and the setting sun, the scene in which [[Kairi]] stands on the beach of the Main Island in ''Kingdom Hearts II'' depicts the Small Island in the opposite position, with the miniature islet facing the Main Island and the Cove facing the setting sun. However, if this was its correct orientation, the Main Island would have been visible from the islet's paopu tree, and previous games show the view from said tree as simply endless ocean and an unobstructed view of the setting sun. | |||
*There are several Hidden Mickey insignias in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' version of Destiny Islands. Easy-to-spot insignias include one on the ground in the Cove, and a patch of purple in the trees. | |||
*In some cutscenes in ''Re:Chain of Memories'', the picture on the Destiny Islands card is the world's logo from ''Kingdom Hearts II''. However, the world's logo from the first game is still shown in the gameplay. | |||
