Xigbar: Difference between revisions

During Sora's visit to [[Olympus]], Xigbar has the Heartless attack the already damaged city<!--Hades had no interest in using the Heartless and Maleficent was not interested in attacking that world--> to put the citizens in more danger.{{fact}} After Sora helps rescue a group from a collapsing building, Xigbar appears and taunts him, saying he will never recover his power like [[Hercules]] did; he implies Herc only succeeded due to his divine origin, and that an "average joe" like Sora cannot possibly accomplish the same feat with endangering more people in the process. Nevertheless, he is cryptically supportive of Sora, pushing him to keep looking for his lost power. Before leaving, he gives a final cryptic clue about a "reward" just around the corner for Sora. Later, he monitors [[Maleficent]] and [[Pete]]'s quest for the [[Black Box]] in Olympus, feeling disappointed that it was the not the same box, all the while showing knowledge of the "age of fairy tales", such as the Master of Masters' saying "May your heart be your guiding key".

In the final battle of the seven Guardians of Light against the thirteen Seekers of Darkness in the Keyblade Graveyard, Xigbar appears just as [[Dark Riku]] confronts the Guardians, giving him the order of unleashing an army of Heartless to stop them in their tracks, before retreating into a Corridor of Darkness. Xigbar then fights Sora and Riku together with Dark Riku. After his defeat at Sora and Riku's hands, he reveals his apparent reason for having joined Xehanort: Xehanort's promise of bequeathing his Keyblade to him in the scenario of his victory, claiming that the fight would have gone a lot differently had he had a Keyblade. Sora and Riku, furious, claim no Keyblade would ever find him worthy. However, Xigbar claims he would be found worthy, with unsettling security, before teleporting atop one of the labyrinth's walls, then apparently falling to his death, rather than fading away at the two Keyblade wielders' hands.

After Master Xehanort's ultimate defeat, Xigbar, having survived his encounter with Sora and Riku, reappears in the Keyblade Graveyard with the black box, just in time to recover the [[No Name]] Keyblade. He then summons four of the five [[Foreteller]]s ([[Ira]], [[Aced]], [[Invi]] and [[Gula]]) to his presence, before revealing that he is [[Luxu]]. In order to fulfill his role, he often switched bodies in order to keep an eye on his Keyblade, and keep its bequeathing chain intact, all the while becoming Xehanort's ally under false pretenses, so he could ensure that the second Keyblade War and the summoning of Kingdom Hearts came to pass, as the Master of Masters had foreseen. Xigbar expresses no surprise at [[Ava]] not having appeared, even after he told her his entire role at beginning of the first Keyblade War, claiming she has fulfilled hers.
