Editing Keyhole

{{Game|KH1|FM1|COM|REC|KH2|FM2|358|BBS|FMB|KHC|RCO|DDD}}

A '''Keyhole''' is a gateway in each [[world]] that leads to the [[heart]] of that world. The [[Heartless]] invade worlds and search for their Keyholes. Upon discovering the Keyhole, the Heartless will enter it and eventually devour the world's heart. After a world's heart is consumed, the world crumbles, and fades from existence. It is said that, if the [[Keyblade]] locks a world's Keyhole, it can never be opened again.

When [[Aqua]] travels to the '''Throne Room''' of the [[Land of Departure]] with [[Ventus]]'s comatose body, after being named the only Keyblade Master successor of [[Eraqus]] and after finding [[Master Keeper|her late Master's Keyblade]], she uses it to access the Land of Departure's Keyhole in order to transform it into [[Castle Oblivion]], and the Throne Room into the [[Chambers of Repose and Waking|Chamber of Waking]], in order to keep Ventus's motionless body safe.

The Heartless invaded [[Destiny Islands]], the home of [[Sora]], [[Riku]], and [[Kairi]]. Not only did they attack the islands in search of the Keyhole, but also to find the Keyblade Master and one of the Seven [[Princesses of Heart]], who is Kairi. The islands were eventually destroyed when the Heartless attacked Kairi and managed to get into the Keyhole (located in the Secret Cave). Sora ended up in [[Traverse Town]] by going through a [[Corridor of Darkness]] (which opened during the islands destruction), while Riku ended up in [[Hollow Bastion]]. Kairi's body was found by [[Maleficent]]. In Traverse Town, Sora learned from [[Leon]] and [[Yuffie]] that the Heartless took over their world by order of Maleficent. Sora, along with [[Donald Duck|Donald]] and [[Goofy]], decide it is their duty to travel from world to world and seal the Keyholes using the Keyblade.

Maleficent and her gang of villains were in the midst of completing an artificial Keyhole in Hollow Bastion by obtaining the seven hearts of the Princesses of Heart. That Keyhole, once completed, would lead them into [[Kingdom Hearts]], the heart of all kingdoms and source for unmeasurable power and knowledge. However, without Kairi's heart the Keyhole remained incomplete. Her heart was actually dwelling inside Sora's. Sora eventually released Kairi's heart using the [[Keyblade of People's Hearts]], completing the Keyhole. [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]], who possessed Riku's body, ventured into the Keyhole in order to get to Kingdom Hearts. Sora sealed the Keyhole and then followed Ansem to the [[End of the World]], a place formed from the remains of worlds taken by the Heartless. Deep in the darkness of that place lay the [[Door to Darkness]], with Kingdom Hearts lying beyond it. There, Sora battled Ansem. Ansem then opened the door so he could obtain the darkness inside Kingdom Hearts, but Sora called out the Light from inside the door and Ansem was destroyed. Sora, Riku and [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]] sealed away Kingdom Hearts by locking the Door of Darkness on both sides. All of the destroyed worlds were restored, including Destiny Islands. It is presumed all the restored worlds had their Keyholes sealed automatically and hidden, so they could not be destroyed again.

Following his final battle with [[Marluxia]], [[Sora]] seals the room where they fought, causing the doors to vanish. However, the keyhole that appears on the door is almost certainly not the true Keyhole of [[Castle Oblivion]], which was last located in the Chamber of Waking.

The term "Keyhole" was only mentioned when Roxas and Xion experience a memory of Sora sealing the Keyhole of [[Agrabah]]. Coincidentally, all of the [[Organization XIII Device|devices]] that Xion absorbs power from during her battle with Roxas were planted near the Keyholes of Wonderland, Halloween Town, and Agrabah.

Instead of sealing the Keyhole of a world, Sora opens the world's [[Gate]], which reveals a new path to a different world. Curiously, though several never-before-seen worlds appeared in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', not one of them had their Keyholes sealed, mainly because after End of the World was destroyed, all worlds went back to what they used to be, and the newer worlds therefore had no reason to be sealed by a Keyblade. Sora did use the Keyblade to seal a Keyhole on Pete's door to [[Timeless River]], to unlock the seal on the door blocking himself, Donald, Goofy and Auron from escaping [[Cerberus]], and to unlock the Underdrome in order to save [[Megara]].

In order to rid each of the worlds within the [[Datascape]] of the [[Bug Blox]] plaguing them, [[Data-Sora]] searches for and enters the Keyhole of each of the data worlds, within which he faces the bosses which are generating bugs. Data-Sora also uses a Keyhole to enter [[Data-Riku]]'s inner data, where he eliminates the bugs that are corrupting Riku. When Mickey enters the Datascape after the data is reset, he shows Data-Sora a Keyhole that leads them to the digital Castle Oblivion.

As part of their Mark of Mastery exam, Yen Sid sends Sora and Riku to the [[Sleeping Worlds]] to unlock the seven Keyholes of Sleep, and return the worlds to the Realm of Light.

==World Keyhole Locations==

*'''Land of Departure:''' The Keyhole is in the Throne Room, behind the middle throne.

[[File:Keyholes KH.png|thumb|All the Keyholes of Kingdom Hearts in chronological order.]]

*'''Destiny Islands:''' The Keyhole takes the form of a wooden door with no knob in the Secret Place. It was opened by Riku.

*'''[[Deep Jungle]]:''' The Keyhole is hidden at the top of the waterfall rock face in the Cavern of Hearts, behind a flock of butterflies. The pathway into the waterfall rock is shown when Kerchak reveals it to them.

*'''[[Traverse Town]]:''' Traverse Town's Keyhole is located in the water fountain in the Second District. It only opens up when someone pulls the rope on the district's bell '''thrice''', causing the water fountain to change face.

*'''[[Agrabah]]:''' The Keyhole is in the final room of the Cave of Wonders, i.e. the Lamp Chamber. After stealing the lamp from Aladdin, [[Jafar|Jafar's]] first wish was revealing it.

*'''[[Atlantica]]:''' The Keyhole is hidden in Ariel's Grotto. It can only be accessed using a [[Crystal Trident]] or [[King Triton|King Triton's]] trident. After defeating [[Ursula]], Triton allowed Sora to lock the Keyhole using the trident to reveal it.

*'''[[Olympus Coliseum]]:''' The Keyhole was hidden under a stone block in the Lobby. It can only be accessed once Sora, Donald and Goofy use the yellow [[Trinity|Trinity Mark]] to remove the stone block.

*'''[[Hollow Bastion]]:''' The Keyhole of this world, also known as the [[Final Keyhole]], has some controversies around it. In the ''[[Ansem Reports]]'', [[Xehanort]] states that he found a strange door in the '''basement''' of the castle. The door had a large keyhole on it and it wasn't locked, so he opened it, seeing on the other side what appeared to be the world's heart. However, Maleficent was gathering the princesses to open the "Final Keyhole" on the '''top''' of the castle, where the in-game Keyhole was located. So it appears that the Keyhole found by Xehanort in the basement was the actual Keyhole to that world's heart, while the Keyhole Maleficent was working so hard to create was an artificial Keyhole to be used as a pathway to Kingdom Hearts. This could probably explain why Hollow Bastion wasn't destroyed along with the rest of that world.

===''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories''===

*'''Traverse Town:''' Traverse Town's data Keyhole is in 4 pieces held by [[Huey, Dewey, and Louie]] and [[Data Riku]].

*'''Agrabah:''' The data Keyhole is inside one of the bug blox.

 

[[File:Pieces of Their Dreams 03 KH3D.png|thumb|One of the Keyholes in Traverse Town.]]

*'''[[La Cité des Cloches]]:''' On Sora's side, the Keyhole of Sleep is located inside the cathedral, in one of roof leveled windows. For Riku, it's in the central window of the cathedral at the Square.

*'''[[The Grid]]:''' The Keyhole is located in the arena where Sora fights Rinzler and frees him from CLU's brainwashing. On Riku's side, it's at The Portal to leave The Grid.

*'''[[Prankster's Paradise]]:''' For Sora, the Keyhole is located on a beach, after the battle with [[Chill Clawbster]]. For Riku's it's in Monstro's mouth, where Geppetto's boat is.

*'''Traverse Town: '''The Keyhole is located in the Fifth District, after [[Joshua]] explains [[Young Xehanort]] is responsible for splitting the world into two different versions. A second Keyhole is located in the Third District after [[Spellican]] is sent fleeing to Sympohony of Sorcery.

*'''Destiny Islands:''' The Keyhole is located beneath the ocean, following the battle with [[Ursula]]. However, this is not one of the Keyholes of Sleep; it merely served as an entrance to the Sleeping Worlds and in Riku's case to Sora's dreams.

*'''[[Dive to the Heart]]:''' The Keyhole is located on the platform after freeing Sora from [[Armored Ventus Nightmare]], leading to the data [[Ansem the Wise]] placed in Sora. Another Keyhole is located within this data.
