The cause of the war, however, was distorted through the ages until it was eventually believed that over time, many people came to desire the power of Kingdom Hearts, introducing darkness into the world and that they had forged [[Keyblade]]s in the image of the original χ-blade in order to take control of Kingdom Hearts. | The story of the Keyblade War passed into legend, and the Keyblade was depicted both as a bringer of chaos and destruction and as a weapon to save the world.
