Missing less and less at the exit of Kingdom Hearts 3 but while we wait there are some questions that keep us awake at night. In this special we will talk about some still unsolved mysteries in the intricately woven plot of Kingdom Hearts.
Despite the very precise summary of GamerDex83 here are some passages that we hope will find a solution in the third chapter.
The presence of Ventus during the Keyblade War
In Kingdom Hearts Union X players after the epic Keyblade War meet i Dandelion, team secretly recruited by Ava to create new Union after the war. Among the leaders of the Dandelions we find Ventus. As you well know Ventus is one of the protagonists, together with Land e Aqua, of Birth by Sleep and is now part of the heart of Sora.
Now if in Birth by Sleep (which is set 10 years before Kingdom Hearts) the Keyblade War is told as a legendary event that took place centuries before, how did Ventus get to this era? Time travel? Stay in the realm of Darkness? What if the Keyblade War didn't actually happen that long ago?
The identity of the Master of Masters
This hooded figure makes its appearance in the film contained in the 2.8 final chapter prologue box set which narrates all the events prior to the War of the Keyblade. We only know about him that he created the first Keyblades in the image and likeness of X-Blade and which is in possession of the Book of Prophecies, book containing all future events, which foretells the arrival of the War and of which each Seer he has a copy but only Greediness has a full version. After giving each Seer a task, a Keyblade and a copy of the book disappear without leaving any trace.
Nothing is known about the identity of the Maestro but the movements and the dialectic have led many fans to think that under the hood is hidden Braig, human version of Xigbar now part Xehanort. Some rumors say this mystery won't be revealed in Kingdom Hearts 3 but we'll see in the next few days.
The true identities of the members of the Organization XIII
As explained in Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance when you defeat a Heartless it's a Nobody of the same individual this returns to being a complete person. Other than Xehanort the same goes for the other members of the organization whose names we have known as human through the different games. But someone is missing.
- Xemnas: Xehanort (KH2)
- Xigbar: Braig (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Saïx: Ïsa (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Axel: Lea (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Vexen: Even (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Xaldin: Dilan (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Zexion: Ienzo (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Purples: Sora (KH2)
- Lexaeus: Aeleus (KH Birth by Sleep)
- Marluxia: Lauriam (KH Union X)
- Larxene: Erlena (KH Union X)
- Demyx: ???
- Luxord: ??? (We actually know it's George Michael)
From the different Kingdom Hearts 3 trailers we know that both Demyx and Luxord, as well as other former members, will appear in the new title. So is it time to find out their real names?
For Lauriam and Erlena the same discourse made before for Ven should apply since they too should be ultra-centenarians at this point.
Luxu's trunk
One of the most trusted disciples of the Master of Masters is Luxury who, however, is given a different task from the rest of his companions: Traveling the worlds looking for a worthy successor of the Keyblade given to him by the Master so that he can see the future, the existence of the Book of Prophecies is the proof of the fulfillment of the mission by Luxu. The hooded young man is asked to take a trunk closed by 13 padlocks and with the writing on it on his journey X-Super whose content remains a secret between him and the Master.
What will that trunk contain? Pieces of the X-Blade? Kingdom Hearts itself? The desire to study? Nobody knows.
Meanwhile, let's wait ...
These are the main questions that torment us in the anxious wait for Kingdom Hearts 3 but we will surely update this article as soon as we find other unsolved mysteries. Stay tuned with us these days.
