Alba & Ater (アルバ＆アーテル Aruba & Āteru) (Latin for "White" and "Black", respectively) is a chess-like board game seen in Kingdom Hearts III and Kingdom Hearts Dark Road.[1] Xehanort and Eraqus would often play this game in their youth.
Story
Kingdom Hearts Dark Road
Between Kingdom Hearts Dark Road and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep
One day in Scala ad Caelum, Xehanort questions Eraqus about his knowledge of the Keyblade War and the "Lost Masters" during a game of Alba & Ater. After the game, the two offer each other their support and begin a new game with Xehanort's new seven dark pieces and Eraqus placing a white piece on the board.
Pieces
The main board that Xehanort and Eraqus play on has 32 pieces: 16 silver and white pieces, and 16 gold and black pieces. Each piece is adorned with a symbol on top and named after a character in the Kingdom Hearts series or a Keyblade. Eraqus introduces a variant of the game with seven new black and gold pieces against one of the existing silver and white pieces.
