Extension from HMK's latest theory on Xehanort burning 100 acre wood:
To expand from that I thought on a full fledged scenario of Radiant Garden in KH3. Now in KH2 we discovered Radiant Garden is where Ansem and Xehanort did their research and the main story arc of the world was getting rid of the Heartless and restoring the town's true name. In KH3, as we embark onto the world map there will be a distress signal emitting from Hollow Bastion. Once you land there, Sora Donald and Goofy see the horror that is the destruction of Radiant Garden. The town is destroyed, heartless, nobodies and unversed (assuming Vanitas is in the new Org. XIII) are running amuck. Leon and Yuffie are beat up and passed out on the ground. The gang recovers them and they tell Sora to hurry to the castle. On the way there, Merlin's house is seen wrecked and the wizard informs Sora that the organization stole the book. Once you reach a certain area of the world (I'm picturing the Restoration Site in reference to the first organization encounter in KH2; or the Postern for the sake of it being at the castle) the organization appears. Master Xehanort and Sora have their first real face to face confrontation and Sora demands the 100 acre wood book back, in which Xehanort in an act of trying to push Sora into the darkness, burns the book right before Sora's eyes. After some more dialogue exchange, the organization then leaves and blocks off the castle with a dark barrier while Xehanort goes to resume some unfinished business.
Merlin will then allow Sora the opportunity to create a new book to rewrite 100 acre by gathering pages made out of a special kind of magic reinforcement that can only be found throughout the worlds in the game.
Throughout the game you return to Radiant Garden, find a way to get inside the castle, have a clash or two with a few members of the Organization, restore 100 acre wood, maybe Xehanort does something that causes you to reenter The Grid, etc.
