The {{nihongo|'''Seven Princesses of Heart'''|セブンプリンセス|Sebun Purinsesu|lit. "Seven Princesses"}}, also refered to as the "true lights", are maidens with [[heart]]s of pure [[light]], devoid of [[darkness]]. Their hearts are seven out of twenty pieces of the [[χ-blade]]. They appear to be the only people in the universe whose hearts are born naturally free of darkness. As such, Princesses who lose their hearts do not become [[Heartless]]; however, it is possible for the Princesses to create [[Nobodies]] on special occasions, proven by the existence of Kairi's Nobody, [[Naminé]].

Though not all are actual princesses, the Seven Princesses are referred by that name because the one who brings all of them together can open the [[Door to Darkness]] and gain the power to reign over the worlds. The original Seven Princesses are eventually succeeded by the '''New Seven Hearts'''.

The Seven Princesses of Heart make their first appearance, during [[Sora]]'s [[Dive to the Heart]]. There are four stained glass windows representing the three princesses from Ventus's memory and a fourth princess, [[Belle]]. There is also a fifth window with three stylized princess silhouettes on it representing the three free princesses, [[Alice]], [[Jasmine]], and Kairi.

Since leaving her home world, Maleficent used her allies and the [[Heartless]] to ravage the worlds and gathered four of the princesses prior to Sora's adventure beginning. At that time, Sora arrived to Wonderland where he met Alice who was abducted. Promising to help [[Riku]] on the premise that she would restore [[Kairi]]'s heart, unaware that she is a Princess, Maleficent used him to capture Jasmine. Though reaching a dead end with [[Wendy]], a false lead, Maleficent later learned of Kairi's identity. However, because Kairi had given her heart to Sora in the chaos of Destiny Island's destruction, access to the [[Final Keyhole]] within Hollow Bastion was impossible. Having overseen Maleficent's activities and taking Riku's body for his own, Xehanort's Heartless [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]] used the hearts of the remaining six princesses to create the [[Keyblade of heart]] to release Kairi's heart from inside Sora. When Sora realized the truth after driving off his attacker, he stabbed himself with the Keyblade to free Kairi's heart, an action that also revived the other six princesses and subsequently opened the Final Keyhole and enabled Ansem to proceed to the [[End of the World]], where Kingdom Hearts was situated. Sora, now a Heartless because of his sacrifice, is eventually returned to human form by the light of Kairi's heart. While Kairi was brought to [[Traverse Town]] afterward, the other princesses remained in Hollow Bastion to stop the flow of darkness that had begun to seep from the still-open Keyhole until Sora could return. Once the Keyhole was sealed, the princesses patiently awaited his victory against Ansem so that they could return home, which finally happened when Kingdom Hearts was sealed and the worlds restored.

As Sora, [[Donald Duck]], [[Goofy]] and [[Jiminy Cricket]] journey through Castle Oblivion, Sora's memories of Kairi begin to alter and eventually replaced by her Nobody, [[Naminé]]. However, by remembering Kairi again, Sora started regaining his lost memories that had been torn away by Naminé. In Riku's story, Naminé appears as Kairi to tell Riku not to hide from the darkness in his heart.

{{Q|O purest of hearts! Reveal to me, the keyhole!|Maleficent invoking the Princesses' hearts}}

The seven Princesses possess only light within their hearts. These hearts of pure light allow them to open the Final Keyhole in Hollow Bastion, which is supposed to hold absolute power over the universe. However, it can only be opened when they are all gathered, and their hearts are used in some form of ritual. Once the Keyhole is opened, the hearts return to the Princesses' bodies.

The purity of their hearts also grants them abilities to keep darkness away or hold it back temporarily, an effect that occurs naturally from the Princesses' presence; the greater the number of Princesses gathered, the more effective this skill is. However, it is draining to the Princesses: Aurora notes that their strength was running out keeping Hollow Bastion from being swallowed by the Final Keyhole. In addition, they can sense darkness, as shown when five of the princesses tell Sora of a great darkness nearby.

They have also shown to have an ability to manipulate other people's powers; for instance, five of the Princesses grant Sora the power of fire, upgrading his [[Fire]] magic.
