"Xemnus", a misspelling of the name "Xemnas", is a musical piece composed by Yoko Shimomura that is used in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX.
Appearances
"Xemnus" is featured only once in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days on day 149 during a cutscene in mission 42 in which Xion thinks back to her confrontation with Riku. The song is further used in the Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX HD movie, replacing the music for scenes in which Saix relays orders to Axel that are supposedly from Xemnas; the misspelling of the song's title may have been repurposed to represent these fake orders.
Composition
"Xemnus" is approximately two minutes and twenty-six seconds long. It has a time signature of 4/4 time and a tempo of 80 beats per minute. The piece does not have an introduction or a conclusion, allowing for a smooth transition between loops. The instrumentation consists of: piano, strings, timpani, and organ. Template:Section-stub
