Dark Seeker Saga: Difference between revisions

(→‎Final Showdown and Redemption: I'd hardly call that a redemption. I accepts his loose honorably but he in no way redeems himself.)
Line 42: Line 42:
Xehanort eventually succeeds in completing his new Organization, but his plans are delayed when [[Vexen]] and [[Demyx]] secretly defect to Ansem the Wise in order for Vexen to atone for his past crimes while in the original Organization. Though he ultimately replaces them with Vanitas and [[Xion]], he is confronted by Sora's party, among them Aqua and Ventus, in the Keyblade Graveyard. Sora and his allies defeat the Organization members one by one and manage to expel Xehanort's influence from Terra, robbing Xehanort of another member. In order to enrage Sora, Xehanort strikes down Kairi and takes her heart in order to forge the χ-blade and open Kingdom Hearts, but Sora takes advantage of Xehanort's time travel abilities to use his body as a portal and banish him back to Scala ad Caelum, giving chase along with Donald and Goofy.

In Scala ad Caelum, Xehanort absorbs the essences of the Organization members into his own being and engages Sora in a final showdown. Though Xehanort almost wins, he is defeated when Sora pierces him through the chest with a ray of light, mortally wounding him. Struggling to stay alive, Xehanort explains that all he wanted was to create a world of light which would never again be corrupted by darkness; though sympathetic, Sora counters that it was not Xehanort's decision to make, which prompts Xehanort to admit that Sora reminds him of Eraqus. Sora's allies emerge, having followed through Kingdom Hearts, and Xehanort is confronted by the essence of Eraqus, who had been residing within Terra's heart the entire time and who persuades Xehanort to stand down peacefully. Xehanort concedes and respectfully hands the χ-blade to Sora, and joins Eraqus as they pass away together as friends once again, after which Sora uses the χ-blade to close Kingdom Hearts.

===Legacy===
Though gone, Xehanort's machinations live on in the form of [[Luxu]], the sixth apprentice of the [[Master of Masters]] and who had been masquerading as Braig in order to ingratiate himself with Xehanort as per his Master's orders. Luxu summons Foretellers [[Ira]], [[Aced]], [[Gula]] and [[Invi]] to the Keyblade Graveyard, mirroring a chess game between Xehanort and Eraqus in their youth in which Eraqus foresaw a showdown between Sora and the Foretellers.
