Terra-Xehanort: Difference between revisions

After observing the behavior of the Heartless and their responses to living things, Xehanort takes one aside and observes its behavior. The Heartless begins to move throughout the castle until a door appears which Xehanort somehow manages to open. Behind the door is a humongous mass of energy to which the Heartless react immensely. The opening of this door leads to the collapse of the world's boundaries, seen in the form of a meteor shower. Xehanort eventually deduces that the door actually leads to the heart of that world and that the opening of this door has led to the collapse of the walls between worlds.

This allows inter-dimensional travel, and eventually a visitor named King Mickey Mouse arrives, having constructed a Gummi Ship, a spacecraft capable of breaking through world boundaries, out of materials from the meteors and used it to visit many different places in search of answers of recent events. Xehanort and Mickey meet and have huge discussions in which Xehanort, once again, learns of the Keyblade, a weapon that Mickey also possesses.

Xehanort makes the final pages of his report, which outline his intentions as well as those of the Heartless. The Heartless seek to consume the hearts of all living things. However, they not only seek human hearts, but the hearts of the worlds themselves. Their ultimate goal is to collect enough hearts to form the biggest heart of all, the heart in which all that exist are evolved from: [[Kingdom Hearts]]. Xehanort decides to use the Heartless' instincts to make his own plans: like Master Xehanort before him, to find Kingdom Hearts in order to gain ultimate power, control, and knowledge. Xehanort also learns that the creation of a Heartless can also lead to the creation of another creature called a [[Nobody]], beings that are left over bodies of those whose hearts have been stolen away. They transform into an inhuman state and do not truly exist as they lack a heart to make them truly live.

Xehanort and the others eventually give themselves to the darkness to gain the ability to control all Heartless and wield the powers of darkness. They lose their hearts in the process and become powerful Nobodies. However, Xehanort is the only apprentice to have both [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|a human Heartless]] and [[Xemnas|a human Nobody]], both possessing the memories and personality traits prior to their creations. Since they possessed strong hearts and wills, Xehanort and the others are able to retain their human forms as Nobodies. Radiant Garden is almost completely destroyed, save for the castle and the mutated waterways, which had [[Hollow Bastion|several modifications]] done to it by Xehanort and the other apprentices, and most of its people are wiped out while some (like [[Leon]], [[Aerith]], [[Yuffie]], [[Cid]], and [[Merlin]]) manage to escape to places like Traverse Town.
