Even though I've tagged this thread with the Spoiler tag, one can't be too careful. Let me just place a spoiler tag around it in consideration of those who haven't gotten to this point of the game, yet stumbled here either by choice or chance. :cue yo dawg:
To me, his choice of this person seems more of a gamble and uneducated guess. Knowing next to nothing about this person (it's as though their meeting was a fortuitous encounter), he decided to proceed anyway and tackled the risk without calculating it.
What do you think about this? And what do you think would have happened if he had simply chosen a wrong person? Would he have found someone else to be "set free" (in my understanding, sent to another world), and rinsed and repeated until he had hit the mark? And by what means exactly do you think had he set this person free?
Spoiler ShowAnsem SOD said:Opening the door to a world's heart causes its walls to crumble.
These fragments are seen as shooting stars.
This explains why these "gummi blocks" can travel freely to other worlds.
I know the catalyst of this collapse - the appearance of the Heartless. However, it will take time to search out the worlds' doors, and to retrieve each heart.
Furthermore, the doors can be locked using a Keyblade, making the heart forever unattainable. I must take action before the wielder of this key appears in this world.
If the princesses and the Keyblade are connected, they should resonate.
I've chosen a girl. I don't know if she holds the princesses' powers, but I will find out. She may lead me to the key bearer.
I shall set her free and observe.
First of all, am I right to say that this girl that he speaks of is Kairi? Assuming she is, then let's move on. We know she is one of the Princesses of Heart, but from the way Ansem wrote the report, it doesn't seem that he himself was sure of it.
