The way I understand how time works in Kingdom Hearts is that the present is constantly moving forward, the past is set in stone, and the future either doesn't exist or is unknowable. Are we expected to believe that Xehanort’s time traveling plan was orchestrated from the very beginning by the RF alone? How did RF know where to find Xemnas, Braig, Isa, himself after possessing Riku, and the rest of the XIII? How did he know that future versions of Riku and Sora were on their way to the past, attempting to enter the RoS? He also knew the location and time in TWTNW where they were to gather. It makes much more sense to me that Xehanort kicked all of this into motion shortly before the events of DDD. He certainly had the idea in mind and laid the path for it from the start, but I doubt he would actually go through with gathering XIII new vessels until after KHII when his second attempt at forging the X-Blade is finally foiled.
To put it simply, I’m asking if it’s at all possible that a newly reformed Master Xehanort used an alternate method of time travel, similar to the one Sora and Riku use at the beginning of DDD, to go to the past and inform the RF of all the knowledge of past events leading up to the present. This would explain the seemingly omniscient nature of the RF and help make the plan a bit easier to swallow. It is established that the future is unknowable, not even Xehanort can know what it has in store. Why and how could the RF have knowledge of events in his future without external help from the one who has experienced it all first hand?
