Destiny's Embrace (デスティニープレイス Desutinī Pureisu, lit. "Destiny Place") is the default form of Kairi's Keyblade and a Keychain for Aqua's and Riku's Keyblades, and appears in Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, and Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
Story
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep
When Kairi is still a child living in the Radiant Garden, she is saved from a swarm of Unversed by Aqua. Kairi gives the Keyblade Master some flowers as thanks, rewarding her with the Keychain for the Destiny's Embrace.
Kingdom Hearts II
A separate instance of the Keychain is later given to Kairi by Riku in The World That Never Was, in order to help fend off a swarm of Heartless attacking Sora. Like Sora's Keyblade, this Keyblade is from the Realm of Light. Kingdom Hearts II[1]
Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance
When Sora is about to face Xemnas within the Sleeping World of The World That Never Was, he explains that the connected hearts of his friends are his power, and an image of Kairi wielding the Destiny's Embrace appears alongside all of his other friends. Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance
Design
The Keyblade is round and curvaceous to the point of appearing harmless. One side of the hilt is formed in the shape of a breaking ocean wave, while the other is formed into a beige vine of sand that wraps around the shaft, which is colored to resemble a sunset. The vine connects to a bouquet of colorful flowers, which form the teeth of the Keyblade. A red silken keychain connects the hilt to the Paopu Fruit token, a recurring symbol of the bond between Sora and Kairi.
