He has motives that we don't know of, and in Xehanort and Eraqus' chess game, he's on the Dark side

also he kind of named his apprentices after 6 of the 7 deadly sins so

I wouldn't exactly call them the darks

But

We don't know if he's on the chess board

Well their personalities are opposite to their sins,it seems

i mean, if that doesn't spell out "hey, i'm not exactly a good guy" here, i dunno what does

Then again, Luxu says that the true wielder of darkness will show up to take the key into hand

are you kidding? Luxu absolutely firetrucks

MoM has actually not done anything bad that we know of for sure right now

MoM just doesn't seem evil to me

I mean, didn't his actions with the secret roles lead to the keyblade war?

That's him in the secret ending though

No

Yes.

His prophetical book already explained that it would happen no matter what

They could avoid it all they want

Look, hear me out

The reason it happens has nothing to do with the book or the foretellers actually

The traitor

Is a Dark Chirithy that is born from the players sadness and own darkness from that

This we don't know for sure either

It seems to be implied

By the Dark Chirithy

But

It has minor missing details that still need to be explained

But yeah, I'm willing to bet that's what it was

yes but ti's important to not take everything for granted until it's explained explicitly

Oh for sure

The traitor was heavily implied to be a foreteller in back cover for example

I honestly believe that MoM has no evil or dark intentions

Not really

next suspects would be the new union leaders, and only after come player

Back Cover did horrible at implying that

Lets say the Master of Masters was lying, and the future is not set in stone, but he is actively shaping it.
We don't know who's Chirithy that was, and the MoM can create Chirithys.
The MoM has the ability to make the bangles that let the players wield the darkness.
The MoM chose to have there be a "lost page", chose to give it to Gula, and chose to have all of these secret roles hidden from each other.
Ira believed there was a traitor due to his careful study of the book, leading him to believe there was a lost page. So already, a role the master gave is interfering.
Aced was suspected as the traitor because he was trying to live up to his role, seeing Ira's actions as weakness.
And all the desperate lux-gathering? because of the suspicion that there was a traitor in their midst.
It was the lux competition that led directly to the Keyblade War

It was just everyone taking hotshots at everyone and after watching that one dude explain all of Chi and UX was a lot more revealing
