:*sighs* I mean that the Young Xehanort and the Master Xehanort should be considered two different people for the time being, even if they're the same person.

If they're the same person then why do they have different journal entries? The answer is because they are treated as two different characters for the sake of sparing confusion.

The Hero has a point. But we saw Riku grow into his KHII self, from CoM to Days to II, but YX is from a large gap in time which we have not witnessed. We haven't seen YX gradually grow into MX, but we saw KH Riku gradually grow into KHII Riku. Anyways, I'm done here, I still think it would be better to split the pages.

:kh1 riku does, in fact, show up in khii, just not in person. We also have that instance in kh3d. Nevertheless, its still a silly suggestion: its literally the same exact person at different ages. As much "growth" as even needed to be depicted ''was''...xehanort didn't change his personality much, if at all. Ansem the king, for example, changes more over the course of khii than xehanort ever did.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 16:53, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

== Separate Xehanorts on Pages ==
{{KeybladeSpyMaster|time=16:44, 31 March 2014 (UTC)|text=So, I know this links back to previous arguments about unmerging Xehanort and whatnot, but here goes. My question is about the other articles. This article treats Master Xehanort and Young Xehanort as the same person. Shouldn't the other articles do this? For example, the article for [[The World That Never Was]] lists the two separate Xehanorts. If we're going to treat them as one and the same being, should we not remove the separate links on the other pages and simply link once to this page with the name "Xehanort" rather than twice with the names "Master Xehanort" and "Young Xehanort"? }}
Well, the game refers to them as such, and they are legitimately different beings in the game itself. However, wiki-wise, and in reality, they are the same person, just different forms. So, to stay in the same frame as the game, it's better to refer to each as one separate being, than one person. It would not flow well, if let's say, we said "Xehanort fought Riku by possessing Xehanort" for example. However, if we're talking about the list of characters/bosses, it's a similar situation to Flora, Fauna and Merryweather. All 3 links link to the same page, but they're different beings. {{User:Erry/Sig}} 22:25, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
== Xemnas ==
It says on the page that Xemnas is Xehanort's nobody. That's not strictly true, he's Terra's nobody influenced by Xehanort. {{User:LightningPrincess12}} 13:57, September 22 2014
You're misinterpreting. It's not talking about Master Xehanort, it's talking about Terra-Xehanort. Allow me to show you: "Through his(Master Xehanort) many different incarnations, including Terra-Xehanort, his(Terra-Xehanort) Heartless, Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, and his(Terra-Xehanort) Nobody, Xemnas,". Like that. [[Special:Contributions/97.81.38.40|97.81.38.40]] 14:07, 22 September 2014 (UTC) Rex Ronald Rilander
:Don't forget, in "[[Signs of What's Next]]", Master Yen Sid implies that Xemnas and Ansem are Master Xehanort's Nobody and Heartless, respectively. "Xehanort's heart, once seized by his Heartless half, is now free, and his body, which had become his Nobody, has been vanquished. Both halves will now be returned to the whole. In short, this means Master Xehanort will return." If Xemnas wasn't Xehanort's Nobody, and Ansem, Xehanort's Heartless, then they would return to become Terra-Xehanort, not Master Xehanort. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 14:46, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
:Yeah but, then what happens to Terra? But since Ansem, Seeker of Darkness and Xemnas use Time Travel to join Master Xehanort in 3D, maybe it causes some type of backlash that prevents Terra from returning? Ugh, this version of Time Travel is so confusing to my brain, I hope someone can explain it better, whether in KHIII or on the wiki. [[Special:Contributions/97.81.38.40|97.81.38.40]] 14:59, 22 September 2014 (UTC) Rex Ronald Rilander
:Terra is still Terra-Xehanort, as we've come to call him, and he's a part of the Organization. Xehanort implies this in ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', when he says that "Sora and another on your list belong to me." Terra is within the ranks of the new Organization, most likely as a time-displaced Terra-Xehanort. As I understand it, everyone in the Organization is now time-displaced, with the exception of Master Xehanort, who's returned to the present time. I'm not sure of Saïx, because Lea calls him "Isa", but Xigbar isn't his original self, so...that I don't know about. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 15:08, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
:They really didn't make it too clear to follow, did they? While I'm sure they tried their best to explain it, it just didn't happen. Thanks though for telling me your take on it, and about Terra-Xehanort being a member of the new Organization, that makes a lot of sense, so thanks again.

== Fragmentary Passage ==
Why is this considered non-canon? [[User:Diamonddeath|Diamonddeath]] ([[User talk:Diamonddeath|talk]]) 08:25, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
:The game announced by "A Fragmentary Passage" is not in production or creation, or any form of development. While the idea/concept is still being considered, because of the likelihood that the entire idea could be abandoned, the wiki doesn't consider it canon. There really isn't anything in the video to consider canon, anyways; it's a ton of scenes that don't seem related to each other. {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}} 17:00, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

== Age of Xehanort ==
Since we don't get exact numbers on Xehanort, I'm thinking there should be different names for him in different times to differentiate between the forms and for image naming purposes.
*Terra-Xehanort - Apprentice of Ansem - Nobody/Heartless Split.
*Master Xehanort - During Events of BBS/Old Goat in KH3D
*Young Xehanort - Time Travelling jerk in KH3D/BBS
*Child Xehanort - Playing Chess with CE in E3 2015 trailer. (He seems significantly younger from his time-travelling age)

== How does Young Xehanort time travel? ==
Don't you have to leave your body behind and just become a heart? --[[User:Elfdemon|Elfdemon]] ([[User talk:Elfdemon|talk]]) 05:38, 26 January 2016 (UTC) <br/>
EDIT: I know that Ansem, Seeker of Darkness gave Young Xehanort the ability to do this, but how did he give him this ability exactly? How do you just give someone the power to time travel? <br/>
Also, How did Ansem, Seeker of Darkness separate himself from his body and become just a heart so he can time travel without a Keyblade? Don't you need a Keyblade to separate your heart from your body? <br/>
--[[User:Elfdemon|Elfdemon]] ([[User talk:Elfdemon|talk]]) 07:28, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
:I believe that's simply how to unlock the ability for yourself, which Xehanort did eventually when he became Ansem, and as they(Ansem and YX) were versions of each other, Ansem was able to give YX the ability to Time Travel. How he did it ''exactly'', is not currently known in detail. Ansem didn't have a body, period. Mickey explicitly states this "Xehanort did give up his body. It was a version of him that was possessing Riku.". [[User:Rex Ronald Rilander|Rex Ronald Rilander]] ([[User talk:Rex Ronald Rilander|talk]]) 04:03, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
Okay, yeah that makes sense.

== Future split? ==
With 2.8 releasing next month and KH3 coming out within the next few years, is it possible we will see a "Master Xehanort" and Young Xehanort" split. Will they ever have their own separate articles? I know they are the same person, but they both play different roles (sorta) and will likely have very different roles come KH3, considering Young Xehanort is one of the thirteen seekers of darkness. Also it would appear much more user friendly to split the articles. It's just an idea, though. I haven't been here long enough to see if there was a specific reasoning for this. [[User:Hallowseve97|Hallowseve97]] ([[User talk:Hallowseve97|talk]]) 23:37, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
:They actually ''were'' seperate at one point, back when Young Xehanort was first identified. However, though I didn't agree with the choice at the time, they were merged because they are in fact the same person. It's not like with Trunks and Future Trunks from ''Dragon Ball Z'' who lived completely different lives. Young and Master Xehanort have and will live the same life, in time. And as such should stay one article. [[User:Rex Ronald Rilander|Rex Ronald Rilander]] ([[User talk:Rex Ronald Rilander|talk]]) 04:12, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
::That's the main issue with it, yeah. If we split it, you'd have a Young Xehanort article, and then a comprehensive Master Xehanort article would still contain all the events covered in the Young Xehanort article, because that's his past. I suppose, depending on the physics of time travel, that we could argue the ''time-traveling'' Young Xehanort as a "different kind of being", but YX and MX definitely have the least amount of separation of any of the new Org -- where Ansem and Xemnas and the others clearly identify other members as distinct, YX and MX always talk about the other being "myself".{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 13:59, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
:::What will we do, though, if the Young Xehanort betrays the Master? It has been hinted that YX is not evil, and is only going along with MX's plan because he believes it's his fate and there's nothing he can do about it. There are theories going around that YX will eventually betray MX, and since KHIII is basically about giving happy endings to all main chracters, and YX may end up being good, I believe in the end the Key to Return Hearts or whatever McGuffin will be used so that a piece of YX's heart can be transferred to a newly created body, allowing him to return to the past so there's no paradox AND simultaneously having a chance to live a life without becoming MX.
:::I mean, if YX turns out to be good, it would be too much of a sad ending to have a good character be forced to eventually become evil and having nothing they can do about it, and Nomura already promised a happy ending. So, if that happens, we'll probably have to split, right? {{User:G-SANtos/Sig}} 22:29, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
::::Uh..no. Since all that is just conjecture. [[User:Rex Ronald Rilander|Rex Ronald Rilander]] ([[User talk:Rex Ronald Rilander|talk]]) 06:50, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::No, I'm not talking about splitting it now. I'm saying, when the game comes out, if something similar to what I said happens, will we have to split the pages after the fact, since, in that case, the two Xehanorts would be effectively different beings? {{User:G-SANtos/Sig}} 18:44, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
::::::Let's just wait until the game comes out before we start discussing the possibility of a split. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 18:46, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::::Wiki policy is that a character's full history is covered on its page, and is only split if that person becomes a different entity, like how Terra-Xehanort became Ansem and Xemnas (similar to digivolving). Only way I can see Young being split from Master, ''per our current policy'', is if something like a split timeline version of a character happens (a la Andromeda or Red Dwarf). Even then, the current coverage (which is that Master Xehanort's history includes that of the current appearances of Young Xehanort) would still be valid, unless Nomura retcons that, somehow, Master Xehanort's "true" past was not what we were shown -- which would somewhat invalidate the entire plot of KH3D, but who even knows with him anymore.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 19:10, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
== Uggghhhh...split? ==
So, given the reveal in KH3 that Young Xehanort is Xehanort's heart within a Replica body, would that satisfy our criteria for being fundamentally different beings and require a split?<!--I hate Xehanort's plot, and all the mess it makes for an encyclopedia-->{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 13:45, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:There would definitely be benefits to splitting them just from an article perspective. Given that right now we have Young and Master Xehanort existing at the same time, following the timeline of the character is tough. If we were truly to cover the chronology as the character experiences it, we would have to cover Young Xehanort on Destiny Islands → Meeting the Robed Figure → Secret boss fight → Gathering versions of himself → YX scenes in DDD → YX scenes in KH3 → Chess scenes (assuming they are even literal and not metaphorical) → all of old Xehanort's life.
:The game almost treats them as different entities. At the same time, they are the same person. It is a mess. I guess I vote to split it for clarity's sake, even though they are the same person; the game hasn't really shown that what YX experiences in the present has any effect on MX, anyway. {{User:LightRoxas/Sig}} 14:41, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
::While I was always for splitting the page, if we split based on the fact that YX is a heart in a replica body, that only counts for when he travels through time. So the scenes on DI, when he meets the Robed Figure, and the chess scenes are not from when he was a replica, so then that should be covered on the MX page, which would be confusing. A better way would be to split young and old, but since they're the same person (excluding time travel stuff), that would be against policy. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 14:54, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:::See, the thing is that Master Xehanort's plot ''does'' reference stuff from his youth -- just not from his time travelling days. So I think we could write coherent articles that diverge at the moment Young Xenny traveled to the future.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 15:57, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
::::I'm game for that. Include what we see of YX on Destiny Islands on the MX page, but put all his endeavors in DDD and KH3 on a separate page. {{User:LightRoxas/Sig}} 16:04, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::I'm all for splitting the pages, too, but isn't the Young Xehanort in ''KH3D'' the one from Destiny Islands? My understanding was the actual Xehanort incarnations were summoned in ''3D'', but they were returned to their own time (including YX), unable to return to the resurrected Master Xehanort's present. Then Master Xehanort recruited Even, who gave him replicas that could host the hearts of the other Norts from across time. Those hearts then merged with the improved replicas, becoming new people. The heart inside gave the replica its appearance, which is why Dark Riku turned blank after Repliku extracted his heart. TLDR; ''KH3D'' Norts are the bodies and hearts of the actual people, while ''KHIII'' Norts are hearts in replica bodies. How we handle a split depends on when the games say Vexen joined Master Xehanort to give him replicas. Reasoning: Even is clearly human (albeit unconscious) throughout ''KH3D''. - {{User:EternalNothingnessXIII/Sig}} 16:45, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::::My understanding was that Vexen joined to give ''better'' replicas, but that they still had his original stock for use. In addition, doesn't Master Xehanort say in KH3D that they will all reconvene for the final battle? So they should be the same entities. It would be pretty nonsense for Nomura to say he knew who all the 12 at KH3D were, if they were just going to be replaced for KH3.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 17:07, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
::::::::I think it's possible the time traveled members in 3D are just hearts, without a replica body, and that that is the reason why they only have a short time before they had to go back. Same for YX in BBS. It's not possible that he's using a replica body there, since the replica program started with Vexen, and he was still Even at the time. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 17:22, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
::::::::There is also the point about the rules of time travel that they state multiple times. You can't travel through time with your body, only a heart can travel through time. Dark Riku even makes a point of saying that when Yen Sid sends Sora and Riku back in KH3D, it's breaking that rule and that the 13 darknesses still had to follow it and give up his heart. ("Unlike a certain wizard you know, I had to play by the rules to travel through time. Which meant leaving my body behind.") He then pretty much states flat out that any time travelers are hearts inside replicas ("They could come from anywhere, any when, just as long as he had the right vessels at hand to place their hearts in.")[[User:Sirlionel13|Sirlionel13]] ([[User talk:Sirlionel13|talk]]) 18:04, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::::::I thought the "certain wizard you know" referred to Merlin. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 18:17, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

::::::::::Yeah, Yen Sid's version still followed Xehanort's rules. They went back to when they were kids, and followed DI into the Realm of Sleep. Only Merlin has done back-to-the-future style time travel.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 18:34, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::::::::I interpreted that as Yen Sid, since I doubt Dark Riku knew about the Timeless River sequence. Regardless of which wizard he means, though, he's still pretty clear that Org XIII had to give up their bodies to travel through time and had to use replicas in the future.[[User:Sirlionel13|Sirlionel13]] ([[User talk:Sirlionel13|talk]]) 18:42, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
:::::::Maybe the replicas are just to allow them to circumvent the "have to have a version of themselves at the other end" rule? Out-of-universe the obvious explanation is that Nomura hadn't decided to go with replicas until KH3. If he had just made Even be missing in 3D we'd be fine and this would all work (as much as KH lore does), but in current form so much is lacking explanation. Maybe if your heart travels to a period of time in which another version of yourself is present, you can use that version of yourself to establish a new temporary body? I don't know man, this stuff is wack. {{User:LightRoxas/Sig}} 18:44, 22 February 2019 (UTC)

::I think we should.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 19:34, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
After the release of ReMind I suggest we go ahead and split Xehanort and Young Xehanort and treat their pages in a similar fashion as we do with Riku Replica and Dark Riku. In ReMind they go out of their way to refer to Xehanort's younger, time-traveling-self as Young Xehanort, while the young Xehanort unaware of his future is referred to as just Xehanort in the ReMind character entry. Going ahead with this split would make it a lot easier to detail what each character does during KH3D and KH3. - {{User:JTD95/Signature}} 14:43, 28 January 2020 (UTC)

== Form Section ==
shouldn't we have a separate Section for Xehanort's Forms? similar to how we have for Sora, Riku, Mickey Mouse, etc. as we now have in the bottom of the page 6 different forms not counting Master Xehanort and Young Xehanort's default outfit. [[User:ScandinavianViking|ScandinavianViking]] ([[User talk:ScandinavianViking|talk]]) 19:26, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
== Xehanort's Timeline ==
I'm a bit confused on Xehanort early timeline as the article says that Young Xehanort from BBS was before he ever left his home but Young Xehanort from Scala ad Caelum looks a lot younger. Also Young Xehanort's Keyblade article seams to say that (Time Travel) Young Xehanort could not use the Keyblade normally which I think helps support that Young Xehanort from BBS was before Young Xehanort From SaC even though he looks a lot younger in SaC
text I am referring to:
'''Xehanort grew up on the Destiny Islands'''. As a young man, he was paid a visit by his future self's Heartless, Ansem, who granted him the power to traverse time and tasked him with gathering twelve other incarnations of himself from across time. After carrying out his duties in the future, Xehanort returned to his proper place in time at the Destiny Islands. While the rules of time travel prevented him from keeping his memories of his travels, '''they engraved themselves on his heart so that he retained a desire to eventually leave the islands.'''
'''Xehanort eventually found a way to depart his home world and arrived at Scala ad Caelum, where he encountered a Keyblade Master. Under this master, he began training as a Keyblade wielder, along with his fellow pupil Eraqus'''
After Mickey Mouse casts a Stopza spell to aid Riku in rescuing Sora from Xehanort's Organization XIII, '''Master Xehanort's consciousness overrides the spell by possessing and temporarily granting Young Xehanort the ability to wield his Keyblade''', though he does so with this specific Keychain. Riku, however, defeats him and sends him retreating.
Hope that makes sense [[User:ScandinavianViking|ScandinavianViking]] ([[User talk:ScandinavianViking|talk]]) 18:45, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
:It's a complicated situation. Lore-wise, DI Xehanort should be younger than SaC Xehanort, but appearance-wise, SaC Xehanort looks younger than DI Xehanort. There's always a possibility of a retcon, but since they remain very mysterious about the "Boy in Black", I think we should stick to the current lore that we know, which is that DI Xehanort is younger. {{User:TheSilentHero/Sig}} 17:41, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
::Honestly it seems like all the scala ad caelum scenes are actually some sort of Dive to the Heart, rather than a true representation of that world.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 12:47, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
==Xehanort's true eyes==
So for young Xehanort and Master Xehanort, their true eye color is silver/grayish. Their golden eyes were from the power of darkness? and from KH3 DLC ReMind trailer, Young Xehanort is seen with silver gray eyes. so what to do with the design appearance? what do you guys think? [[User:Kunoichi101|Kunoichi101]] ([[User talk:Kunoichi101|talk]]) 04:31, 13 June 2019 (UTC)
== Pre-BbS replacement synopsis ==
Providing draft here for review -- some citations need to be added, but main points are:
#Nomura explicitly states that KH3D Xehanort does not have the power to wield a Keyblade (see YX Keyblade talk page for quote), and YX himself indicates that the meeting where he's sent off is the first one with Ansem. Unless Nomura has explicitly retconned that somewhere, the time travel adventure HAS to happen before he goes to Scala. It makes the most sense that the corridor to Scala was after YX returns to the "past", as the end of that conversation.
#The 4 years later visit with the Queen is clearly part of the pilgrimage mentioned in the BbS reports and depicted in the ReMind scene.
-----
===Before ''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road''===
Xehanort's existence was foreseen by [[Luxu]], who anticipated the existence of a future wielder of the [[No Name]] Keyblade who would reenact the Keyblade War.
Xehanort himself was reincarnated in the world [[Scala ad Caelum]] from the heart of the {{c|Player|khx}}, a survivor of the previous war who had refused to slumber in the [[Sleeping Worlds]]. As a baby, he was given away to be raised on Destiny Islands.{{?}}
===''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road''===
{{Q|At the time, I did not yet know I was talking to myself. He cast his body aside to set me on the path. That is Xehanort reduced to just a heart; the being you and your friends called Ansem|Young Xehanort}}
However, Xehanort eventually sought to leave the peaceful islands in order to see the greater world beyond, largely due to recurring dreams of strange worlds and people.
[[File:Where It Started 01 KH3D.png|thumb|left|Xehanort meets Ansem, his Heartless from the future.]]
One day, as a young teenager, Xehanort was paid a visit by his future self's Heartless, Ansem. Ansem granted Xehanort the power to traverse time and tasked him with gathering twelve of his other incarnations to form the [[Real Organization XIII]] and obtain Kingdom Hearts. After carrying out his duties in the future as "[[Young Xehanort]]," the youth returns to his proper place in time and his now-forgotten experiences are subconsciously engraved in his heart.<ref>'''''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', Young Xehanort:''' "I will return to my own time, and grow into the man who becomes all these others. While I know this future now that I have lived it, returning to my own time will erase the memories and experiences I have gained here. Still, my appointed path is now etched in my heart, which will first lead me to seek the outside world."</ref> Ansem then offered Xehanort a dark corridor out of Destiny Islands to seek his answers. Though his name was forgotten over time, Xehanort's departure would be remembered for years.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''''', '''Riku''': "I heard once there was a kid who left for good. So how did you get here, anyway?" / '''Terra''': "Is there some reason you're interested in the outside world?" / '''Riku''': "Yeah. I wanna be strong one day. Like that kid who left. He went to the outside world—I bet he's really strong now. I know it's out there somewhere—the strength that I need."</ref>
While traveling through the dark corridor, Xehanort experienced his first encounter with darkness. Despite the horrifying nature of the darkness, Xehanort was fascinated by it and took some level of comfort in his heart's capacity to continue to feel emotion. As recounted in his reports years later, Xehanort believed even at this point that darkness could be channeled and even controlled by a strong enough heart.{{?}} The dark corridor eventually deposited Xehanort at [[Scala ad Caelum]], where he was taken in by Keyblade Master [[Odin]] as his seventh apprentice. During the course of his training, Xehanort eventually formed a brotherly bond with his fellow pupil [[Eraqus]], who he enjoyed playing chess with. Master Odin taught Xehanort and his fellow classmates the ways of the Keyblade and their role to protect the worlds of [[light]] from [[darkness]], but the unsatisfied Xehanort often snuck out to explore other worlds and find his own answer. At this point, Xehanort still wore his [[Keyblade Armor]] while traversing the Lanes Between to protect himself from the darkness between worlds.{{?}}
One day Master Odin informs Xehanort's class that the senior class had gone missing, and tasks them with exploring the worlds in two groups. Xehanort travels with Eraqus and another apprentice, to [[Agrabah]], where he realizes that the world was empty of life and still in the process of rebirth. They continue the search in [[Wonderland]], where they avoid the insanity of the [[Queen of Hearts]], but leave Xehanort pondering whether the patsies of darkness must be slain to protect the world.
Four years later, Xehanort visits the graves of his four fallen comrades. Eraqus urges him against feeling responsible for their demise, while Xehanort informs him of his upcoming world tour in preparation for their Mastery exam.{{?}} Internally, Xehanort had begun to believe it necessary to master darkness in order to keep up with the pedigreed Eraqus. Through his travels, which included a visit to Wonderland and its enthralled Queen,{{?}} Xehanort's engraved memories led him to doubt the efficacy of the light ands its superficial dominance over the dark, and resolve to change this state of affairs.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind}}
{{sec-stub}}
===Between ''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''===
In the course of this pilgrimage, Xehanort met [[The Master of Masters]], who gifted him a [[black coat]] to replace his armor while also urging him to discard both armor and coat in order to experience the true force of the darkness in the lanes, which he claimed would pose no threat to a heart of "true strength". Doing this, Xehanort touched the darkness and gained great power through his lack of fear.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind}}
Eventually, both Eraqus and Xehanort became [[Keyblade Master]]s, and Eraqus was chosen as the Master's successor while Xehanort was chosen to inherit the [[No Name]] Keyblade. The newly titled Master Xehanort was free to take on apprentices of his own to train, and traveled the worlds freely.
[[File:Flashback The Keyblade Masters 02 KHBBS.png|thumb|right|Xehanort leaving Eraqus scarred after a heated discussion concerning the future.]]
As he journeyed, Xehanort obtained vast knowledge concerning Keyblade lore, the Heartless, and the mysteries of the [[Keyblade War]] and Kingdom Hearts. Over the years, Xehanort's beliefs that darkness and light were meant to be in balance were further reinforced, and that the balance was currently tilted dangerously toward light. He resolved to rebalance the world by beginning a new Keyblade War to recreate the [[χ-blade]] and thus obtain the power of Kingdom Hearts.{{?}}<!--wasn't it about creating a NEW, blank world?--> However, due to his advanced age, he devised a plan to extract his own heart and transfer it to a younger body to prolong his life until his ambitions were fulfilled.
At one point, Xehanort discussed his ideas with Eraqus, who attempted to dissuade him from risking a new apocalypse for the sake of gaining knowledge. When Eraqus tried to stop him by force, Xehanort used his power to easily fend him off, scarring Eraqus.
[[File:Flashback Vanitas's Making 02 KHBBS.png|thumb|left|Master Xehanort creating Vanitas.]]
Eventually, Xehanort encountered [[Ventus]], who he took on as a pupil. With Ventus unsuitable as a vessel, he decided to instead use him for the χ-blade. After failing to stimulate Ven's darkness during a training exercise in [[the Badlands]], Xehanort forcibly extracted the darkness from his heart, creating [[Vanitas]] but badly damaging Ven. Xehanort brought his ward to the Destiny Islands to die in peace, but Ven showed signs of recovery after his heart connected with that of the newborn [[Sora]]. In order to strengthen Ven's light and keep him separated from Vanitas, Xehanort brought him to Eraqus at the [[Land of Departure]] and requested that he take care of Ventus and train him as a Keyblade wielder, counting on Eraqus's dedication to the light to make him an equal mirror to Vanitas. Despite their hostile parting, Eraqus readily accepted Xehanort's request, taking Ventus as an apprentice to be trained alongside Terra and Aqua. While there, Xehanort noticed Terra's desire for power, and chose the boy as his vessel.
