Anyway, I'm sure you all have talked about and discussed reasons why Master Xehanort has such a liking (need better word) to Ven. But perhaps we need to go a bit more in depth with it, as it may hold connections or keys to Master Xehanort's current status. We also noticed that Terra and Master Xehanort were once acquainted at one time or another, by the conversations they shared in the trailer.
Its obvious that Master Xehanort offered Terra a chance to be with him. "Cross the wall between the light and the darkness, to me." Perhaps Master Xehanort takes refuge in another world, outside the realm of light and the darkness. The realm inbetween? Well regardless, he wants Terra's help for something.
Terra refuses and says, he has a friend, but questions what has Xehanort done to his friend's heart. Terra is most certainly talking about Ven. Maybe the Keyblade (like always) has something to do with Master Xehanort's intentions regarding Ven.
Towards the end of the latest trailer, Master Xehanort says "Those who sumit to the darkness, are not qualified to wield the Keyblade." Maybe that's something new we have to take into consideration. In the Kingdom Hearts series, we've seen a few strong hearted individuals who have given into the darkness and may not have recieved a Keyblade. Characters like Diz (Ansem the Wise), Xehanort, the other five apprentices of Ansem the Wise, and Riku (during Kingdom Hearts and the most of Kingdom Hearts 2, he had no Keyblade).
In Kingdom Hearts, Riku did not recieve the Keyblade because he opened his heart to darkness. But we have a contradiction here. The alignment of the heart, does not determine the ability to wield the Keyblade. As someone who is evil, but has a strong heart capable of wielding a Keyblade, will wield one. The Keyblade Legend also hints that an evil person wrought chaos and ruin to the world. In Hallow Bastion (during Kingdom Hearts), Riku managed to reclaim the Kingdom Key from Sora.
So how do we explain Master Xehanort's claims? Well Darkness does not always have to mean evil, so maybe the wielder who wrought chaso and destruction to the world, infact did not wield the power of darkness exclusively.
That's one question answered, but how did Riku obtain the Kingdom Key in Hallow Bastion? Well perhaps at that moment, Riku merely used the strength of his heart to take over the Keyblade.
And the reason why Sora got the Keyblade back, was not because of the power his friends' gave him, strenghening his heart, it was because Riku tried to wield the weapon before Sora, therefore he got it back just in time.
So basically, the Keyblade is a weapon of light. Riku's darkness over shadowed his ability to wield one, up until the ending of Kingdom Hearts 2, when he finally began to balance his darkness out with light, making his powers neutral oncemore.
Keyblades exist in the realm of light, darkness, and inbetween. To wield them, the strong hearted individuals must not have become beings of darkness. Anyway, how does this connect to Master Xehanort you say? Well it has everything to do with him. Maybe he can't even wield a Keyblade for some lengths of time. He tells Terra about those who summit to darkness, maybe he's addressing hiself. At one time I'm sure he had the ability to wield the Keyblade, thus being considered a Master. But as his craving for darkness grew, his heart became too tainted, and he lost the Keyblade.
That's where Ven comes into play. Ven, who has the potential to wield the Keyblade, is Master Xehanort's next best bet, as he's young and inexperienced about the forces around him. Master Xehanort wants Ven's light, so he can claim the Keyblade once more. Master Xehanort tricks Ven into believing that he's losing the Keyblade and his light, but in actuality, Master Xehanort is the one who is taking it away from him. Ven is starting to change, Terra takes notices and asks Master Xehanort what he has done to Ven's heart. I assume Master Xehanort did not take away all of Ven's light, but just enough to provide himself with enough to wield the Keyblade.
This is not really a theory, but just some suggestions throwing out there. Not really sure how reliable my answers are, as there are probably some holes somewhere...
