Luxord instantly catches him in the lie, as he had already approached Xemnas regarding the Box. He recounts to him the riddle of the black goat and the white goat, hinting that he may be aware of Xigbar's true identity and agenda, but shrugs it off as he departs.

|[[File:The Lingering Will 01 KHIII.png|200px]]||The Guardians are all revived, to a point in time from just before they are attacked by Dark Riku and Terra-Xehanort. The two appear before them once more, but this time the Guardians are aided by an unlikely ally - the Lingering Will, courtesy of Namine.
