Shedding Starlight

An empty castle, an empty world, and its three heirs; the Land of Departure is a sacred haven with a haunted past. What are the secrets behind this place? What has been lost to time? What will happen now that Aqua holds ALL of it on her shoulders, granted from her mentor, Eraqus?

A young boy ripped in two by his master; a violent beginning to a twisting story. Ventus and Vanitas are two beings derived from the same heart, one of pure light, and one of pure dark. But, was this fate specifically designed for Ventus? Could this separation have happened to anyone?

Our first of three tragedies, envied only by Shakespeare himself. Terra; a young man manipulated into hurting his father figure, and falling into the hands of the master who misguided him. We're joined by RPG streamer, Kingdom Hearts cosplayer, and MDA-nominee Eliseteria to discuss Terra and his story.

The Ocean Between. Keyblades. The Lanes Between. The X-blade. The crossroads. The Keyblade War. Xehanort has always been a scholar; we've seen this since the first game in the series. Legends of the war over light have filled his head with ideas of a better world... is that what he's really after?
