'''Hollow Bastion''' is an original [[world]] in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', with loose references to ''{{w|Beauty and the Beast (1991 film)|Beauty and the Beast}}'' and ''{{w|Sleeping Beauty (1959 film)|Sleeping Beauty}}''. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', the world is divided into two episodes: '''Hollow Bastion Part I''' and '''Hollow Bastion Part II'''. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', the world was expanded into the town and other areas and eventually renamed [[Radiant Garden]], which was the world's original name. It also briefly appears as a flashback in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', experienced by [[Xion]].
'''Hollow Bastion''' is a [[world]] in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', it is divided into two episodes: '''Hollow Bastion I''' and '''Hollow Bastion II'''. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', the world was expanded into the town and other areas. It appeared in a flashback to events from ''Kingdom Hearts'' experienced by [[Xion]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''.


[[Ansem the Wise]] was the former ruler of this world, before it was taken over by [[Maleficent]].
Hollow Bastion is a colossal castle that towers above the rest of its world, [[Radiant Garden]]. At one point, it was the only remaining part of the world, along with the waterways beneath it. Because of this, the world itself was known as "Hollow Bastion" in ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', and most of ''Kingdom Hearts II''. However, it regains its original name of Radiant Garden by the end of ''Kingdom Hearts II, ''when [[Tron]] used his powers to show what the world was like before its destruction.


==Settings and Areas==
Unlike the rest of the Radiant Garden, which poses as ''{{ff|Final Fantasy (series)|Final Fantasy}}'''s world, Hollow Bastion has no relation to ''Final Fantasy'' whatsoever.
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
[[File:Castle Gates (Art).png|thumb|225px|left|Artwork of Castle Gates.]]
[[Sora]], Donald, and Goofy enter Hollow Bastion at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Rising Falls}}'''|逆巻く滝の底|Sakamaku Taki no Soko|lit. "Bottom of the Reverse-Winding Waterfall"}}, appropriately named as there are waterfalls that run up instead of down. This area, as well as all other areas on the bottom reaches of the castle, contains magical bubbles that can transport the team under the solid water, or can be frozen to be used as platforms. Jumping on icy floating rocks and ledges takes the party to some broken stairs with a lift at the end. The lift takes Sora to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Castle Gates}}'''|正門|Seimon|lit. "Main Gates"}}, the main entrance of Hollow Bastion which is made up of a set of balconies and lifts running both outside and inside the castle. From here, the party can travel down into the underground water system or enter the castle itself.


Going down the nearby platform or leaping off the edge of the balcony takes the party to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Base Level}}'''|基部|Kibu}}, an area full of ledges, switches, and enemies. Successfully climbing to the balcony near the entrance earns extra treasures, while taking a nearby bubble carries them to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Waterway}}'''|虚ろなる城:地下水路|Utsuronaru Shiro: Chika Suiro|lit. "Hollow Castle: Underground Waterway"}}, where a series of gates, switches, and bubbles must be navigated to operate the castle gate controls. Off of the Waterway is a small room called the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Dungeon}}'''|地下牢|Chika Rō|lit. "Underground Dungeon"}}.
[[Ansem the Wise]] was the former ruler of this world. The castle was taken over by [[Maleficent]] and she claimed herself ruler, but she was simply being used.


[[File:Entrance Hall (Art).png|thumb|225px|right|Artwork of the Entrance Hall.]]
==Settings and Areas==
Going through the doors at the other end of the Castle Gates area takes the party to the massive two-level {{nihongo|'''{{a|Entrance Hall}}'''|虚ろなる城:エントランス|Utsoronaru Shiro: Entoransu|lit. "Hollow Castle: Entrance"}}, where a fight against [[Riku]] takes place. To continue onwards through the castle a puzzle at the end of the hall must be solved. When solved it'll allow access to the second half of the Castle Gates. Taking the left door in the Entrance Hall leads the party to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library}}'''|虚ろなる城:書庫|Utsuronaru Shiro: Shoko|lit. "Hollow Castle: Archive"}}, which is also the site of a large puzzle involving organizing the [[Hollow Bastion Library books]]. The room also contains one of the world's [[save point]]s. After the world's [[Keyhole]] has been locked, [[Belle]], [[Yuffie]], [[Leon]] and [[Aerith]] can be found here.
[[File:Rising Falls.png|thumb|200px|left|The Rising Falls.]]
[[Sora]] and the rest of the [[party]] enter Hollow Bastion at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Rising Falls}}'''|逆巻く滝の底|Sakamaku Taki no Soko|lit. "Bottom of the Reverse-Winding Waterfall"}}, appropriately named as there are waterfalls that run up instead of down. This area, as well as all other areas on the bottom reaches of the castle, contains magical bubbles that can transport the team under the solid water, or can be frozen to be used as platforms. Jumping on mystical floating rocks and ledges takes the party to the first of many magical platforms that are scattered throughout the castle. The platform takes Sora to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Castle Gates}}'''|正門|Seimon|lit. "Main Gates"}}, the main entrance of Hollow Bastion which is made up of a set of balconies and lifts running outside the castle. From here, the party can travel down into the underground water system or enter the castle itself.


Also accessible from the Library is the first of many entrances to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Lift Stop}}'''|トロッコ乗場|Torokko Noriba|lit. "Minecart Boarding Place"}}, a junction point for many of the castle's lifts, which snake throughout the castle through magical tram lines. Each route is separated from the others by mystical barriers, and many passages and hallways also converge at this hub. The ceiling of the Lift Stop is decorated with stained glass.

[[File:Entrance Hall (Art).png|thumb|200px|The Entrance Hall.]]
By taking the lift on the other side of the Castle Gates, the party can continuing up the castle to reach the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Great Crest}}'''|虚ろなる城:大紋壁|Utsuronaru Shiro: Daimon Kabe|lit. "Hollow Castle: Great Crest Wall"}}, which consists of three large balconies on opposite side of the castle's enormous Heartless emblem. From the first balcony, Sora can travel by use of the castle's largest lift, and after a slow journey across the front of the bastion, the party is dropped off at the second balcony. From there they can take the Lift Stop up to the third balcony, which further leads to the next area, the {{nihongo|'''{{a|High Tower}}'''|高楼|Kōrō|lit. "Skyscraper"}}. Located here is a smaller Heartless crest that can be moved to create a route up to the upper levels of the castle. The High Tower is divided into two areas which is connected by a passage through the Lift Stop. At the second level of the High Tower is an entrance which eventually leads to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Castle Chapel}}'''|虚ろなる城:礼拝堂|Utsuronaru Shiro: Raihaidō|lit. "Hollow Castle: Chapel"}}, where [[Maleficent]] is fought. After her defeat, a portal to a secret area of the chapel can be temporarily found here, leading a fight against Maleficent in her dragon form. The portal later appears again for a fight against [[Xemnas]].
Going through the doors at the other end of the Castle Gates area takes the party to the massive two-level {{nihongo|'''{{a|Entrance Hall}}'''|虚ろなる城:エントランス|Utsoronaru Shiro: Entoransu|lit. "Hollow Castle: Entrance"}}, where a fight against Riku takes place. To continue onwards through the castle the puzzle at the end of the hall must be solved; solved, it allows access to the second half of the Castle Gates. Taking the left door in the Entrance Hall leads the party to  {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library}}'''|虚ろなる城:書庫|Utsuronaru Shiro: Shoko|lit. "Hollow Castle: Archive"}}, also the site of a large puzzle involving organizing [[Hollow Bastion Library books|misplaced books]]. [[Belle]], [[Yuffie]], [[Leon]] and [[Aerith]] can later be found here after the Hollow Bastion [[Keyhole]] is locked.

[[File:Lift Stop (Art).png|thumb|200px|left|The Lift Stop.]]
Also accessible from the Library is the first of many entrances to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Lift Stop}}'''|トロッコ乗場|Torokko Noriba|lit. "Minecart Boarding Place"}}, a junction point for the series of magical tram lines that snake throughout the castle. Each route is separated from the others by mystical barriers, and many passages and hallways also converge at this hub. The ceiling of the Lift Stop is decorated with stain glass.
{{-}}
[[File:Castle Chapel (Art).png|thumb|200px|The Castle Chapel.]]
Continuing up the castle by taking the lift on the other side of the Castle Gates area is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Great Crest}}'''|虚ろなる城:大紋壁|Utsuronaru Shiro: Daimon Kabe|lit. "Hollow Castle: Great Crest Wall"}}, an enormous bas relief of the Heartless emblem, where the largest of the magic lifts is located. After a long and slow journey across the front of the bastion, the party is dropped on the other side, where they can take the Lift Stop to the next area, the {{nihongo|'''{{a|High Tower}}'''|高楼|Kōrō|lit. "Skyscraper"}}, where a smaller crest can be moved to create a way up to the upper levels of the castle. Through the Lift Stop at the opposite end of the High Tower is the entrance to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Castle Chapel}}'''|虚ろなる城:礼拝堂|Utsuronaru Shiro: Raihaidō|lit. "Hollow Castle: Chapel"}}, where the exit to the next room is sealed until Maleficent is defeated. There is also a secret area, where the Dragon and Xemnas are fought.


After defeating Maleficent twice, one of the walls to the right of the Castle Chapel will reveal a hidden entrance. Through there the Lift Stop can be quickly accessed which ultimately leads to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Grand Hall}}'''|虚ろなる城:大広間|Utsuronaru Shiro: Ōhiroma|lit. "Hollow Castle: Grand Hall"}}, where the [[Princesses of Heart]] are held captive and the [[Final Keyhole]] forms. Inside the Grand Hall is a [[Heartless]] Emblem-shaped portal leading to a small dimension known as the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Dark Depths}}'''|闇の淵|Yami no Fuchi}}. Here, Sora and company fight off the [[Behemoth]] guarding the Keyhole from being sealed.
Once the seal is broken, the party arrives in the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Grand Hall}}'''|虚ろなる城:大広間|Utsuronaru Shiro: Ōhiroma|lit. "Hollow Castle: Grand Hall"}}, where the [[Princesses of Heart]] are held captive and the [[Final Keyhole]] forms. Inside the Grand Hall is a [[Heartless]] Emblem-shaped portal leading to a small dimension known as the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Dark Depths}}'''|闇の淵|Yami no Fuchi}}. Here, Sora and company fight off the [[Behemoth]] guarding the Keyhole from being sealed.


The '''{{a|{{c|Laboratory|eotw}}}}''' is a room within Hollow Bastion, that can only be accessed once at [[End of the World]]. The lab consists of a short hallway blocked by a large Heartless emblem at one end, with a small room to the left. The side-room contains a large machine with a computer console and five capsules on it, hooked up to a tank of unknown liquid. Red, orange, and black warps in space dot the hall and lab.
'''{{a|Riku's Room}}''' is an area not available to Sora that is revealed during Riku's journey in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''.{{?}}<!--rewrite describing the room-->

===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
[[File:A Tiny Room 02 KHRECOM.png|thumb|right|210px|Riku inside his old room, reliving memories of the past.]]
Access to the castle is very limited in ''Kingdom Hearts II''. During the second trip to the world, the way to the castle is unlocked and leads to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Postern}}'''|城通用口|Shiro Tsūyō Kuchi}}, the site of a save point and the base entrance to the bastion itself. Going inside, the party must navigate the twisting {{nihongo|'''{{a|Corridors}}'''|廊下|Rōka}} before reaching the end at {{nihongo|'''{{a|Ansem's Study}}'''|アンセムの研究室|Ansemu no Kenkyūshitsu|lit. "Ansem's Laboratory"}}.
In ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', Hollow Bastion appears within [[Castle Oblivion]] as a memory. The world can be explored through boxed-in areas that draw heavy inspiration from the various balconies across the castle, as well as the Lift Stop areas. In cutscenes, areas such the '''Castle Gates''', the '''Library''', the '''Entrance Hall''', and the '''Castle Chapel''' are visited. In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', the secret part of the Castle Chapel also serves as arena for the fight against [[Dragon Maleficent]], while in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', the '''Castle Chapel''' serves as such.
 
Despite promotional images and movies for ''Kingdom Hearts II'' that depict Sora, Donald, and Goofy in battle in the High Tower area of the castle as it appeared in ''Kingdom Hearts'', the area is nonexistent in the game.


When Riku visits the memories of Hollow Bastion, a new area called '''{{a|Riku's Room}}''' is shown in cutscene. It's quite similar to the Library in design, but is a lot smaller with also a bed in it.
====Ansem's study and computer====
Ansem's Study was the private study of Ansem the Wise in Hollow Bastion. The room contains a throne and desk, containers filled with [[heart]]s, and books. As leader of Radiant Garden, he used it to store his research on the heart. [[Mickey Mouse]] and Ansem often talked in there. There is a portrait of [[Terra-Xehanort]] in the study, though it is unknown if Ansem or Terra-Xehanort put the painting up there. Behind the painting, it shows the password which are the Princesses of Heart. There is a secret passage in the wall that leads to Ansem's Computer.


===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
Ansem's Computer is a complex computer system used by Ansem the Wise during his rule over Radiant Garden, and later used by his apprentices after his exile. It contains an elaborate network copied from ENCOM, containing the [[Space Paranoids]] world, which was updated and modified for research purposes.
{{main|Radiant Garden}}


===''Kingdom Hearts coded''===
The computer once held a vast variety of information regarding many subjects studied by Ansem and his apprentices, such as the [[Heartless]], [[Nobodies]], [[Organization XIII]], and Ansem the Wise himself. However, when Sora, Donald, and Goofy tried to access the information on their enemies, they found that all of it was corrupted, possibly by Xemnas. The only thing that did come up was a picture file of the true Ansem the Wise, leading to the truth being revealed about Xehanort's Heartless.
In ''Kingdom Hearts coded'', Hollow Bastion appears within the [[Datascape]] and is divided into two worlds. Hollow Bastion Part I and Hollow Bastion Part II, with the former being very similar to Hollow Bastion from ''Kingdom Hearts''.


====Hollow Bastion Part I====
The computer continues to be used by [[Xemnas]] to access the [[Chamber of Repose]] located several miles below the factory. While the password to Ansem's D.T.D. dataspace is the names of the Seven Princesses of Heart, Xemnas's password to access the Chamber of Repose is the original names of [[Ansem the Wise]]'s six apprentices: [[Xehanort]], [[Even]], [[Braig]], [[Dilan]], [[Ienzo]], and [[Aeleus]].{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix}} It also allows access to the Heartless Manufactory on the floor below the room, and activates the laser that transports users to Space Paranoids. On the other side of the computer room is a small balcony overlooking the '''{{a|Heartless Manufactory}}'''.
The '''Rising Falls''' are briefly seen in cutscenes, but Data-Sora's real journey at Hollow Bastion starts at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Castle Gates}}'''|正門}}, where the second part of the area can now be accessed via platforms made of [[Bug Blox]]. He then heads down the underground {{nihongo|'''{{a|Waterway}}'''|地下水路}} to unlock the castle gate. After opening the gate, he soon joins with Goofy at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Entrance Hall (LL)}}'''|エントランス(下部)|Entoransu (Kabu)|lit. "Entrance (Lower Level)"}}. After examining the Heartless slot on the exit door, Data-Sora visit the library, which is broken down into {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 1}}'''|書庫1|Shoko Ichi|lit. "Archive 1"}}, {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 2}}'''|書庫2|Shoko Ni|lit. "Archive 2"}}, {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 3}}'''|書庫3|Shoko San|lit. "Archive 3"}} and {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 4}}'''|書庫4|Shoko Yon|lit. "Archive 4"}}, to search for the missing emblem pieces. Passing through the libraries leads to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Entrance Hall (UL)}}'''|エントランス(上部)}}, which is the upper portion of the hall.


After joining up with Donald and finding all the emblem pieces, Data-Sora and party can leave the Entrance Hall to access the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Great Crest}}'''|大紋壁 }}, a huge lift which further transports them to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|High Tower}}'''|高楼}}. The area is overflown by bugs, and to continue Data-Sora needs to activate all of the area's triggers. Doing so unlocks an entrance beneath the moveable platforms, where they can finally chase after Pete who waits in the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Grand Hall}}'''|大広間}}. Data-Sora then encounters Pete and Data-Riku at the glitched and corrupted {{nihongo|'''{{a|Keyhole / Chapel}}'''|鍵穴:礼拝堂|Kagiana: Raihaidō|lit. "Keyhole: Chapel"}}.
===''Kingdom Hearts coded''===
[[File:Inside Riku 06 KHREC.png|thumb|left|200px|Inside Riku's Data, the main hub of Hollow Bastion II.]]
In ''Kingdom Hearts coded'' Hollow Bastion I is very similar to the Hollow Bastion from ''Kingdom Hearts''. Data-Sora starts his journey in the '''{{a|Castle Gates}}''', he then goes to the '''Waterway''' as soon as he finds the gate is locked shut to find a way to unlock the gate. After opening the gate, he soon joins with Goofy at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Entrance Hall (LL)}}'''|エントランス(下部)|Entoransu (Kabu)|lit. "Entrance (Lower Level)"}}. After examining the Heartless slot on a door, Data-Sora and Goofy visit the library, which is broken down into {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 1}}'''|書庫1|Shoko Ichi|lit. "Archive 1"}}, {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 2}}'''|書庫2|Shoko Ni|lit. "Archive 2"}}, {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 3}}'''|書庫3|Shoko San|lit. "Archive 3"}} and {{nihongo|'''{{a|Library 4}}'''|書庫4|Shoko Yon|lit. "Archive 4"}}, to search for the missing emblems. Data-Sora also chases after Donald in the Waterway. After the party is set, they travel to the '''Great Crest''' via a huge lift, leading to the '''High Tower'''. After obtaining the last emblem, they can finally chase after Pete who waits in the '''Grand Hall'''. Data-Sora encounters Pete and Data-Riku in the '''{{a|Keyhole}}''', at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Chapel}}'''|鍵穴:礼拝堂|Kagiana: Raihaidō|lit. "Keyhole: Chapel"}}.

====Hollow Bastion Part II====
Hollow Bastion II is set within Data-Riku, who is lying comatose in the Grand Hall. From {{nihongo|'''{{a|Inside Riku's Data}}'''|リク データ内部|Riku Dēta Naibu}}, Data-Sora can enter five doors. The first takes him to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Destiny Islands}}'''|デスティニーアイランド|Desutinī Airando}}. The second takes him to Traverse Town, divided into the {{nihongo|'''{{a|First District}}'''|1番街|Ichiban Machi}} and {{nihongo|'''{{a|Second District}}'''|2番街|Niban Machi}}. The third takes him to Wonderland at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Clearing}}'''|中央広場|Chūō Hiroba|lit. "Central Square"}}, leading to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Lotus Forest}}'''|ハスの森|Hasu no Mori}}. The fourth takes him to Agrabah at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Cave / Hall of Beginnings}}'''|魔法の洞窟 始まりの間|Mahō no Dōkutsu Hajimari no Ma}}, where he must travel backwards out to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Cave / Entrance}}'''|タイガーヘッド|Taigā Heddo|lit. "Tiger Head"}}. The final door takes him to Hollow Bastion's {{nihongo|'''{{a|Chapel}}'''|礼拝堂|Raihaidō}} where he encounters the bugged Data-Riku. The [[side-scrolling]] segment takes place Inside Riku's Data, with the [[Maleficent (Dragon)|Dragon Maleficent]] encounter within the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Chapel (Dragon's Lair)}}'''|礼拝堂(竜の間)|Raihaidō (Ryū no Ma)}}. Data-Sora also revisits the Grand Hall before the [[3D shooting]] segment takes place in the '''Data Tunnel'''. Data-Sora defeats [[Sora's Heartless]] at {{nihongo|'''{{a|Central Corruption}}'''|変異データ中枢|Hen'i Dēta Chūsū|lit. "Central Data Mutation"}}.
Hollow Bastion Part II is set within Data-Riku, who is lying comatose in the Grand Hall. Entering Data-Riku will take Data-Sora to {{nihongo|'''{{a|Inside Riku's Data}}'''|リク データ内部|Riku Dēta Naibu}}, where five doors are located. These five entry points lead to desaturated versions of past worlds from the game that are overrun by Bug Blox.
 
[[File:Inside Riku 06 KHREC.png|thumb|left|225px|Inside Riku's Data, the main hub of Hollow Bastion Part II.]]
The first door takes Data-Sora to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Destiny Islands}}'''|デスティニーアイランド|Desutinī Airando}}. The second takes him to [[Traverse Town]], divided into the {{nihongo|'''{{a|First District}}'''|1番街|Ichiban Machi}} and {{nihongo|'''{{a|Second District}}'''|2番街|Niban Machi}}. The third takes him to [[Wonderland]] at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Clearing}}'''|中央広場|Chūō Hiroba|lit. "Central Square"}}, leading to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Lotus Forest}}'''|ハスの森|Hasu no Mori}}. The fourth takes him to [[Agrabah]] at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Cave / Hall of Beginnings}}'''|魔法の洞窟 始まりの間|Mahō no Dōkutsu Hajimari no Ma}}, where he must travel backwards out of the cave to the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Cave / Entrance}}'''|タイガーヘッド|Taigā Heddo|lit. "Tiger Head"}}. The final door takes him to Hollow Bastion's {{nihongo|'''{{a|Chapel}}'''|礼拝堂|Raihaidō}} where he encounters the bugged Data-Riku.
 
After clearing all five doors, an exit appears leading to a [[side-scrolling]] segment through Inside Riku's Data, and ends with an encounter against Dragon Maleficent at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Chapel (Dragon's Lair)}}'''|礼拝堂(竜の間)|Raihaidō (Ryū no Ma)}}. Data-Sora also revisits the Grand Hall before a [[3D shooting]] segment takes place in the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Data Tunnel}}'''|データホール}}. Data-Sora then fights and defeats [[Sora's Heartless]] at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Central Corruption}}'''|変異データ中枢|Hen'i Dēta Chūsū|lit. "Central Data Mutation"}}.

{{Sec-stub}}
During his time in Radiant Garden, [[Ventus]] sees his friend, [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]], in the distance and gives pursuit. His chase leads him to one of the doors of Hollow Bastion, guarded by [[Dilan]] and [[Aeleus]], who appear to be asleep. When Ventus approaches, they suddenly wake up and deny him entry, instead telling him to go home before the [[Unversed]] harm him. When the [[Trinity Armor]] appears, Dilan and Aeleus prepare to aid Ventus against it, but [[Even]] appears and orders them to carry on guarding the castle.
 
After Terra-Xehanort is saved by [[Aqua]], Ansem the Wise has him brought to the castle to recover, where they decide that the amnesiac youth's name is "Xehanort".<!--cite to kh2--> Later on, [[Lea]] and [[Isa]] make their own plans to break into Hollow Bastion. Though they are successful in getting inside, they are spotted by Dilan and Aeleus and thrown out.
 
===Between ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and ''Kingdom Hearts''===
Xehanort became one of Ansem's apprentices, and was subject to experiments of the heart in an effort to regain his lost memories. The [[Chamber of Repose]] was constructed deep within the castle, where these experiments continued. In time, Ansem deemed the experiments unethical, and ordered them ceased. However, on discovering [[Subject X]], Xehanort began to continue the experiments without Ansem's knowledge or consent.{{storylink|Secret Report 3}}
 
Lea and Isa would continue their attempts to infiltrate Hollow Bastion, eventually reaching the Chamber of Repose, where they met Subject X. {{storylink|Secret Report 5}} Henceforth, whenever they were able to enter the castle, they would go to see her. However, Ansem eventually discovered the experiments' continuation, and in response, he sent Subject X where Xehanort and the other apprentices could not find her.{{storylink|Secret Report 4}} {{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III}} As a consequence, when Lea and Isa infiltrated the castle again, they found her cell empty; this led to their approaching the castle with intent to apprentice under Ansem the Wise.{{storylink|Secret Report 6}}
 
The day after Lea and Isa had joined, Ansem's other apprentices, led by Xehanort, overthrew their former mentor, banishing him to the [[Realm of Darkness]], and furthered Ansem's original drives to include more mechanical components. The result is a twisted bastion; half beautiful castle, half distorted factory. According to Leon, Maleficent invaded Hollow Bastion's world with her Heartless nine years before the events of ''Kingdom Hearts''. Some residents managed to escape, many of whom end up in [[Traverse Town]]. However, the youngest known resident, [[Kairi]], is sent into the oceans of the worlds by Xehanort and ended up in [[Destiny Islands]] due to Aqua's spell. During her reign in the castle as one of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]'s minions, it is probable that Maleficent either created or remodeled the castle's keep, which has decorations and models of roses and her thorned plants.

Sora and Goofy find Donald in the waterway, and the three of them explore the castle, with Donald and Goofy breaking [[Bug Blox]] and fighting Heartless in place of Sora. They find the pieces of the Heartless emblem that unlock the door leading to the upper levels of the castle, and at the High Tower, Data-Sora reflects on the bond he feels with Donald and Goofy. The three of them confront Pete in the Grand Hall, where he traps Donald and Goofy in a cage of blox. Desperate, Sora manifests a new Keyblade from his evolving heart and frees them. Pete retreats into the [[Keyhole]], followed by Sora, who defeats him despite his own powers in the datascape. Pete then sets Data-Riku on him, having corrupted his data with bugs, but Data-Sora manages to subdue his friend after a drawn-out battle.
Sora and Goofy find Donald in the waterway, and the three of them explore the castle, with Donald and Goofy breaking [[Bug Blox]] and fighting Heartless in place of Sora. They find the pieces of the Heartless emblem that unlock the door leading to the upper levels of the castle, and at the High Tower, Data-Sora reflects on the bond he feels with Donald and Goofy. The three of them confront Pete in the Grand Hall, where he traps Donald and Goofy in a cage of blox. Desperate, Sora manifests a new Keyblade from his evolving heart and frees them. Pete retreats into the [[Keyhole]], followed by Sora, who defeats him despite his own powers in the datascape. Pete then sets Data-Riku on him, having corrupted his data with bugs, but Data-Sora manages to subdue his friend after a drawn-out battle.


Although Data-Sora and Data-Riku emerge from the Keyhole, Riku's data is thoroughly corrupted, prompting Sora to enter Riku's personal datascape to destroy the bugs, in Hollow Bastion Part II. After visiting manifestations of Riku's memories of different worlds, Sora defeats the main source of the corruption, which takes Riku's form. Maleficent attempts to block Sora from returning from inside Riku's data, but he emerges, and he defeats Maleficent's dragon form in the chapel. Mickey, Donald, and Goofy say goodbye before returning to the real world, but when the datascape begins erasing itself, Data-Sora sets off through the Final Keyhole for the innermost part of the datascape to retrieve Maleficent and Pete and to confront the source of the corruption, [[Sora's Heartless]].

As Data-Sora progresses through the Datascape's Castle Oblivion, he enters a room based on his visit to Hollow Bastion. He chases after Pete, using switches to progress, and defeats him. Pete calls Maleficent, who brings them to a long, trap-filled room, forcing Sora to traverse the obstacle course to reach the far side of the room. Upon confronting the two, Sora is returned to the Entrance Hall, with an [[Ending Card]] for Hollow Bastion.

Later in the real Hollow Bastion, a resurrected [[Braig]] speaks with [[Young Xehanort]] about [[Master Xehanort]]'s plans. While both are unsure of what Master Xehanort really wants, a comment of Young Xehanort's causes Braig to realize that it may have something to do with the [[Keyblade War]] and muse on whom to take along.
