Finn and vigor

In the new kh3 trailer we FINALLY got to see Demyx make his grand return. We also got to see Vexen as well which i freaken called it. However, you'll notice that the 2 have yellow eyes. Have they been norted????? Personally, i dont think so. Because Vexen says: "this plan was all his idea". I believe this "plan" they are doing has something to do with their yellow eyed appearance. Specifically, i think they are infiltrating the Organization by going undercover. But here begs the question, who gave the order? They did say this plan was someone else's idea. I have 2 possibilities: Ansem the Wise (as we do see him in the trailer) or, Xigbar. The reason why i say Xigbar is that this plan could be the SAME plan Xiggy mentioned in Re:coded. Although I'll need more Evidence to support that theory so as of right now, i find Ansem to be more likely. Ansem could be trying to find information by spying on the New Organization so that he can help Sora have the upper hand. What do you think though? Do you believe Vexen and Demyx are faking it, or are they really Norts?

Agreed. I seriously doubt Xehanort is the Master of Masters, nor are they related in any way. I think the MoM is an entirely new character that will Have a much bigger role in future KH titles.

Definitely Xigbar. I have a whole theory going around in my head that Xigbar will end up being the true mastermind of this series, hence he has been using Xehanort all this time for his own methods. That will have to do with those "plans" he mentioned in Re:Coded.

I was initially thinking the Riku Replica would be a seeker but now, im not so sure. There's a possibility Repliku could actually

be a guardian of light. As to who the other 2 organization members are then, I'd say Brain or Demyx. Brain would be an interesting one due to his connection to union cross. While i honestly find Demyx to not fit the new organization considering how Xemnas talked ill will about him in KH2FM, there's honestly no one else who it could be. Again though, there's still Brain. And the thirteenth seeker i believe will be one of the people helping the guardians of light for the sake of a shocking plot twist. Im think someone like Lea. Because Lea's entire goal in KH3 seems to be seeking for Siax/Isa. He probably will want to save his best friend. But maybe Xehanort planned this ahead of time and uses Saix to lure Lea into a trap and will make him a Xehanort.

Not only is Malicifent looking for the black box but also LUXORD? What could this mean? Well, this makes me wonder if Luxord is connected to the events of Xchi at all. After all, HOW could he know about it? The same can be said for Maleficent. Now This is something that just popped into my head but what if (just way if) Luxord is one of the foretelllers? Specifically Ira. I mean, they look similar in body size.

Considering the destiny islands trio are so separated I am lead to believe that each character here will have their own playable experience. Sora obviously being the main one of course. And Mickey and Lea will be the party members of Riku and Kairi.

It seemed very much like he was talking to them through a device.

Apparently phones exist in Kingdom hearts now...........

Why not Luxord? Because if Wreck it Ralph is a world (apart from his summon), I'd say Luxord would be the Organization member present in the world.

Holy crud...I had never thought about it this way! What if this is indeed the case? That everything that has happened in the game is a result of the player character sleeping in a pod? But then, what would be the purpose of doing such a thing? Would the person who put them in these pods have conducted experiments to analyze their psyche and what makes their hearts tick? Was it an animus-like attempt to revisit the past in order to find a vital clue towards something? These are questions that lead to interesting theories and speculation, and thinking about this really puts things into perspective! What we may know about the characters in the timeline of X may be radically different! You may be onto something!

 

Just imagine if that is true, though! The question would be why these people subjected themselves to being put into a fake world at all?

I think they were referring the second playable as Riku.

We will likely need to control him in RoD.

I know the title sounds crazy but hear me out. The Keyblade wielders in Union Cross are actually inside a fake world. Now, I'm not referring to something like the Digital Twilight Town from KH2 but more like the world of Xchi is actually in a dream-like setting. Meaning every Keyblade wielder is actually sleeping inside a pod, very similar to the Maxtrix to make it simpler. Now where would all these keyblade wielders be sleeping at? The Old Mansion at Twilight Town. Remember, these pods were used to keep Sora asleep. It also said they were used once before. Not only that, there are 7 total pods that are visible. 7 pods. 5 Foretellers. 2 hooded figures. Could these be the Foretellers, Luxu, and the MoM? Now hear Master Ava's speech again: "Weilders will flock from here and fly into the *Outside World*" The master of Masters says something like this too saying "Im going to disappear" which probably meant he's gonna leave the dream-like realm and into the "outside world". Now this doesn't necessarily mean the Keyblade War that happened inside Xchi and UC is actually fake. Remember from DDD that it was explained the worlds inside the Sleeping Realm are trapped in time. Pranksters Paradise for example. The events from that world actually already happened and it was going through an endless time loop. Could the same apply for Daybreak Town? The Keyblade War is being repeated over and over for specific players in an endless time loop. Some are just part of the dream while characters like Ventus, and Lauriam are real. So in reality, the Keyblade War already happened centuries ago. This explains why Ventus and Marluxia/Lauriam are alive here. These 2 (along with Brain) are actually inside those pods interacting with the dream. Now what about Skuld and Ephemer? Well, i personally believe these 2 are related to Xehanort in some way. Now if that is the case, this means Xehanort is existing around this time (cuz if Ventus and Lauriam really are the same age, it means Xehanort is still an old man.) So if this is like 4 years before the events of BBS, it doesn't make any sense unless Skuld and Ephemer are actually "part of the dream" just like MoM, Luxu, and The Foretellers. Now i can assume Ephemer and Ava are already aware of that fact due to their attitudes within certain cutscenes. This dream-like setting also explains the appearance of Dream Eaters which can only access the realm of sleep. Now how does Streltzia's death come into play here? Only 1 thing makes sense: Lauriam hijacked the program. With the help of Brain he went inside the Dream-like realm, killed Strelitzia, and took her place as the Union Leader (or vise versa. Brain could have killed her instead and allowed Lauriam to get in). This is why Strelitzia was killed. Lauriam wanted to take her place (or her pod) and do something within the Union Leaders. What that is exactly, who knows. But my guess is maybe he wanted to learn more about the Keyblade. So Maybe this where Marluxia created that obsession with the Keyblade and drove down the path of getting his own. Now one last thing, what about Malicifent? The current Malifcifent was seen at the end of Xchi. How did she get there? Simple. She found the "Data" Ansem the Wise hid within Sora. This is the exact Data Malicifent wanted in DDD which allowed her to access the dream-like world of Xchi within the old mansion. She put herself to sleep inside a pod in order to access the realm. What do you think though? Do you believe the world of Xchi is actually a Maxtrix like dream setting?

Considering this is the finale of the Xehanort saga, i am REALLY hoping we get an in depth look at Eraqus and Xehanort's past. And its pretty obvious that'll be the case due to what the E3 2015 trailer showed us. Although, here's an idea of how it should go down. 2 things actually. Firstly, i think it would be wise to make another varatation of the "Ansem reports" again in this installment. What would they be about? Well, we already got Xehanort reports so im thinking "Eraqus Reports" would be the most likely candidate. We could get a good look at Xehanort and Eraqus's relationship through these and Eraqus's life as well because i feel like Eraqus has not gotten the right amount of spotlight as he should. And the second thing, making Young Eraqus (and also young Xehanort) playable through Flashbacks. I personally believe the 2nd playable character will be Young Eraqus simply due to his lack of the spotlight. Also, explaining the 2 masters pasts through playable sections to me sounds like the best method of getting to know these characters. The way it'll work will be similar to Dream Drop Distances method of explains whats going on in the real world. Once you completed a world, the game gives you a cutscene that shows whats currently going on with Mickey and co. However, in KH3's case it'll be more like Yakuza Kiwami where it serves as flashbacks. Only this time, its playable through Eraqus like Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door. What do you think though? Do you agree with this method of explaining the pas of Xehanort?

True! Also, notice Marluxia does not have that exact symbol on his black coat. Could this be symbolizing that hes not actually apart of the group? That being said though, i still believe hes apart of the new organization. Just that hes not extremely loyal and is plotting an inside job of some kind.

I think Vexen is coming back. Besides, if the Riku Replica really is returning n KH3, i think Vexen would have some sort of role with that plot point (considering he technically created the Replica). Plus, i personally believe Vexen is a very significant character to the lore of Union Cross. Because in Birth by Sleep on Ventus's story Vexen makes this remark: "A heart completely devoid of darkness? Stripped clean of it that.....Very questionable. *smiles*" Not only that, here's another one: "I have a feeling we'll cross paths again." Now this is just in theory but i think Vexen might know something about Ventus. And this something has something to do with his involvement in Union Cross. Plus, Vexen was playing the parent role for Ienzo. Again, this is just in theory but i think Ienzo is actually Brain's son (its Not Blaine. Let It Go and Move On.) This again indicates Vexen could have a connection to Union Cross in some way.

Larxene was confirmed by her voice actor to be present in KH3 but here begs the question: What world will she appear in? Cuz i think we can assume the trend of Organization members appearing in a specific world will continue. Well i notice people have been thinking Olympus Coliseum cuz yeah, thunder (which relates to Zues) so that could be it. But idk. With Olumpus Coliseum being the so called "opening" world i personally believe no organization members will actually appear here (or at least the lesser important ones. Xemnas Ansem, Young Xehanort, or Master Xehanort could appear). Plus, i think it would be really out of place to suddenly have a character we haven't seen in ages to be appearing in the very first world. Because the first world in KH games (or really all games in general) usually serves as the "warm up" for the game. Now unless Larxene's character is extremely significant to the story in some way, i don't see her appearing in Olympus Coliseum to be logical. Now what world would she appear in then? Well due to the recent leaks regarding a "Specific world" i think we can expect Larxene to be the baddie of that world. I wont say what it is due to spoilers but since Larxene was just confirmed to be in the game, i think we can assume that the Leak was real.

First I want to make something clear:

 

The Riku in Prankster's Paradise IS NOT Riku Replica, but a figment of the dream replacing "what seems to be missing" to paint a fuller picture. Not to say Riku Replica isn't back somewhere and a possible candidate for the Organization.

 

As for everything else, I am really lost on who else can be part of the True Organization XIII. Something tells me Luxord is quite probable, there is no proof at all but, just like Xigbar in KHII, he wasn't really that present during that game like other members were and Xigbar wasn't either and then he became one of the baddest guys in the series, who's to say Luxord won't be the same?, he was also one of the last battles along Saïx and Xigbar in TWTNW and both of them are in this new Organization, why was he in the las important rounds? There's just things that point at him but without backstory I wouldn't see why Xehanort would choose him.

No, im 99% sure Luxord is returning as a Seeker of Darkness. I already said this but I'll say it again: in the E3 2015 trailer there is that Chess game that Young Xehanort and Young Eraqus are playing. However, the chess pieces they are playing with have different symbols that most likely indicates the different members in the SoD and GoL. Now there is 1 piece in particular i wanna talk about: A piece that has a Dice on it. This dice obviously relates to Gambling. Who in the KH series has to do with gambling? That is of course Luxord. Besides, luxord was the 3rd to last organization boss right before Xemnas. He could have been one of Xemnas's guardians or something which obviously means Xehanort holds him in favor of his abilities.

When it comes to Disney words, i believe there will be 10. I say that because from what it looks like, an organization member will be involved in every world (aside from Mount Olumpus from the looks of it). Now we can exclude Master Xehanort, the thirteenth member, Ansem, and Xemnas due to their importance the story. That leaves 9 members. All 9 of these members will preside in each individual world (again, aside from mount Olumpus). That in turn means 10 total worlds and most likely 6 original worlds.

With kingdom hearts having such rich lore, i think we can expect a huge plot twist of sorts. Maybe it'll have something to do with Riku's "other me". Like idk. Maybe the Riku we've seen all this time is actually the Riku Replica and the real Riku died in Castle Oblivion. (ok thats just an example. dont actually do that Nomura lol). Although a plot twist that would be absolutly glorious would have to be Xigbar's betrayal at the very end. I know many people may be skeptical about this possibility considering this is FINALLY the time we get to defeat Xehanort once and for all but having the final battle transition into Xigbar finishing off Xehanort and it is revealed that HE is the true mastermind would be badass in my book.

So far for the members of the True Organization we have Master Xehanort, Ansem, Xemnas, Young Xehanort, Xigbar, Saix, Vanitas, and Marluxia (supposedly). What about the other 5 though? Well here im gonna speculate who the other 5 members are (including the thirteenth) as well as the Disney worlds they will preside in. First off i believe Terra-Xehanort will be a member. The reason being is that with Terra-Xehanort existing, it will give Sora and co. a method on how to bring Terra back. They'll probably have to find the Lingering Will and convince it to take backs it body (like it tried to. Do at theend of BBS). And the world Terra-Xehanort will be involved in is most likely Frozen. Cuz in the movie, Elsa cant control her powers very well so this essentially makes her feared by everyone around her. In Terra-Xehanort's case, Terra is being possessed by Xehanort and he can't control himself which is very similar to Elsa's case. Next is Larxene. With Marluxia (supposedly) being a member, Larxene makes sense considering she's Marluxia's partner in crime. She will probably appear in the Jungle Book if that is to be a world. After that is Luxord. Luxord is technically already confirmed as we can see a pair of Dice on the chessboard in the E3 2015 trailer which obviously points to him being a member. The world he would preside in would have to Wreck it Ralph due to his competitive/gaming nature. Now for the most surprising one, The Riku Replica. In DDD we see some sort of fake Riku in Monstro which has to be the Riku Replica. On top of that, it does make sense for him to be a seeker cuz Xehanort himself stated that Riku was the original choice to become the 13th member but due his resistance to darkness they decided to go with Sora. Now what if they decided to go with the Riku Replica instead? He isn't resistant to darkness so maybe. And the world he would preside in would have to be Lilo and Stitch. Because with stitch being an Experiment made by someone, Riku replica can relate to that and that connection would serve well for him to be in this world. What do you think though? Do you agree with these members and worlds?

Ok I believe you

I dont think we'll see any big connections between the 2. Because the way i see it, Union Cross is at its "Chain of Memories" stage. What i mean is that Union Cross will be the bridge between Kingdom hearts 3 and kingdom hearts 4. Also meaning that the story wont heavily involve KH3. But of course there will be some small snippets in kh3. Like maybe Marluxa in th Kingdom of Corona makes some sort of hint to Sora that he knows Ventus or something along those lines or Aleus (Lexeaus) admits that he met a strange individual years ago that told him to watch over Ienzo. (Cuz if you read the 358 secret reports, one states that Lexaues trusts Zexion over everyone else so that could mean 2 things. He knew Ienzo beforehand OR someone told him to stand by and watch Ienzo. That someone being Brain which is Ienzo's father.) Though other thn that, I doubt we'll be seeing anything extremely big in KH3. Only things that'll hint towards the future of the series. Of course, the Secret boss(es) and Secret ending will attest to this as well.

I think Isa would fit Pirates of the Caribbean. I'm under the notion that Isa still thinks he doesn't have a heart. This could be why Saix is still under Xehanort's influence. And if we connect it to the Dead Mans Chest plot, It'd make sense because Davy Jones is looking for his Heart. A motive that Saix has as well.

Union Cross has been on the downlow for quite some time so I hardly see anyone talk about theories regarding its lore. I mean it is understandable since we got all the KH3 hype this year. HOWEVER one mystery in UC still has me nagging for a long while and that is who is the identity of the mysterious figure holding the "Bleeding heart" flower. Lets narrow it down first. People think that it could be Luxu but honestly i dont believe that is the case. Mainly because i think Luxu's role will only affect kh3, not Union Cross. I could be wrong though so we'll just have to wait and see. The other candidate i hear people talk about is Larxene. Although there's something about that which is off. If Larxene is the hooded figure, why would she help Lauriam, Streletzia's killer in CoM? Considering this figure is holding the "Bleeding heart" i can assume they are mourning over Strelitzia's death which again won't make sense if its Elenar. Now here's the big question here. If this person is mourning over Strelitzia's death, would it mean they must have a deep hatred towards Marluxia? Someone who holds a deep anger towards Marluxia. Only 1 person comes to mind: Vexen. Yes, what I'm saying is that the hooded figure is actually a young Even. Now i know it sounds very out place to even suggest this but if you really stop and think about it, Vexen's involvement in the story of Union Cross answers a lot of hidden questions. 1 is his encounter with Ventus. In BIrth by Sleep Ventus meets Even in Radiant Garden and here's what Vexy has to say: "A heart of pure darkness. Stripped clean if it at that, Very questionable. *Smiles*" I think Vexen KNOWS something about Ventus. This "something" i believe involves Ventus's connection to the Keyblade War. Not only that he says this other line later on: "I believe we will cross paths again". People see this line as a nod to Roxas's involvement in the Organization. But i personally doubt that it is. Remeber, Ventus is NOT Roxas. While they look the same, they are not the same person. The only Roxas/Ventus connection was the cutscene between Roxas and Lea. Besides, Roxas never really had a relationship with Vexen so why would they use him to give nod to Roxas's involvment in the Organization? The only characters that would make sense are Xigbar, Xaldin, Demyx, and Luxord since Roxas had the most interaction with them. What was Even referring to then? He say "i believe we'll meet again" because he knows something about Ventus's past. A past that Even was also a part of. We must not forget that Even is looking after Ienzo as well Who i Believe is actually Brain's son (therefore another connection). Now if Vexen really does have a deep hatred towards Marluxia, it also explain his actions in Chain of Memories. Vexen in that game tried to spill the beans of Marluxas plan to Sora however, This has never really been fully explained. But if you consider that he could have been intentionally trying to destroy Marlys plan it brings a whole new light. Vexen had most likely been preparing this for a long while, however, due to his jittery actions (and Saix's request to kill him so that he could become second in command) that lead him to his end. This would also explain Vexens attitude in kh2FM where he was in a hurry to find Xemnas. I think he was trying to locate Xemnas so that he could attend the group at Castle Oblivion and enact his revenge. Vexen most likely had just heard that Marluxia had joined the organization (as Xigbar said he recently recruited him) and instantly started freaking out. This lead him to take his plan of revenge at a very dangerous pace and because he rushed it so much it lead him into Axel and Saix's trap. Though who knows? Even most likely might try to do it again now that he's alive as a human. There is one last thing i must mention. In KH2 there is a line in secret Ansem Report 1 that always caught my interest. "my apprentice Even is also interested in uncovering Xehanort's memories". I believe Xehanort in one way or another is involved with the events of UC. Although if that is the case, only one thing makes sense. Xehanort lost his memories of that time. Now think here for a sec. Why would Vexen be interested in Xehanort's memories? Its because these "memories" were memories of his past in Xchi. Memories that were erased by the Master of Masters. (If you read my older theories you'll remember the one where the Player avatar you play as is probably Xehanort. Here's another connection to that theory). What do you think though? Do you believe Vexen of all people is the mysterious figure holding the bleeding heart flower? Like i said, it sounds VERY out of place but it's definitely somethng interesting to think about.

I believe there are dark motives that Marluxia is hiding. A secret that involves the killing of Strelitzia (that is if he's the killer). Regarding Union Cross I think Marluxia in CoM was originally planning to not only make Sora a slave but also to destroy Ventus. Cuz remember, before heading off to face Marluxia Sora says this: "He's trying to destroy my heart" aka Ventus's. Why would he want to eliminate Ventus? It was so that the X~Blade could not be forged. I believe that this is Lauriam's overall mission. To make sure the X~Blade is never forged and Kingdom Hearts can never open. This could also mean it was Lauriam who destroyed the X~Blade into its 20 pieces from Yen Sid's story (which I think was an event that transpired in Union Cross). Now regarding that story, one question comes to mind. Where was the X~Blade in Xchi? It wasn't even present or even mentioned; but it has shown to be clearly important so its gotta be somewhere. Right? Well Remember, in order to create the X~Blade you need 2 things: A heart of pure Light and pure Darkness. Even back in Xchi I think this is how the Blade was forged. This means there was someone like Vanitas and Ventus alive back then. Now remember, Lauriam is trying to prevent the X~Blade from being forged. And he was willing to kill Ventus in order to accomplish that goal. Key word is "Kill". Someone was killed in Union Cross. Someone who was most likely killed by the Graceful Assassin himself. This pure light needed to create the X~Blade was indeed Strelitzia. Now if she is basically Ventus here, where would the equivalent to Vanitas be? Someone with black hair, yellow eyes, and shares the same gender as Strelitzia. Its Skuld. Now I'm not saying that Skuld is necessarily evil. As far as we know, being full of darkness doesn't really mean your a bad guy so I think she's still a good person. Also remember, Vanitas looks like Sora because Sora was inside Ventus. If that wasn't the case then Vanitas would look like an Evil Ventus instead. That is the case with Strelitzia and Skuld, because lets be real. They do look very similar. With this in mind it could also mean Skuld is next in line for Marluxia's scythe. In fact I think it will happen. Cuz there is no doubt about it that Marly is a Waifu Killer. Who knows? Repunzal in KH3 could be his next victim.

Ok but seriously, with this in mind it could mean Strelitzia is still alive. (ha perfect excuse am I right?!) Because the X~Blade will obviously play a big part in Union Cross so she could come back for that reason. Unless someone else that is pure light and pure darkness gets introduced (like Brain and some other person maybe) but I doubt it.

Do you believe that this is Lauriam's overall goal? And do you believe Strelitzia and Skuld could be the equivalent to Ventus and Vanitas? Cuz lets be real, they look EXACTLY the same (when you disregard the hair color). And what other way could the X~Blade be forged? Because again, it has to become relevant at some point.
