So, the scala scenes aren't really...real, and I don't think we can confidently say that the eraqus/xehanort entities in them actually are xehanort and eraqus, especially given they continue their game after the real eraqus and xehanort tralala off to hell. I'd like to suggest that we create articles covering white boy and black boy as metaphorical representations, rather than characters."We're werewolves, not swearwolves."

- the scala scenes aren't really...real In what way? I just assumed they were flashbacks (yeah, “convenient” ones, but that seems more like a common literary technique than anything else). Regardless, I think it’s better to wait for the DLC (which may or may not go further into it) before making such a statement with certainty. Ultima Spark (talk)

- In the way that they exactly map to the real-time events that these two boys would have no way whatsoever to control, that boy in white and boy in black are explicitly not part of the xehanort and eraqus profiles whereas in any other game they would be, and that if the chess game really did happen in xehanort's past, you'd assume he'd figure out what was going on and quickly realize that continuing his search for the keyblade war was a losing proposition."We're werewolves, not swearwolves."
