KINGDOM HEARTS 3D [Dream Drop Distance] Side Riku
Prologue-Radiant Garden
(pg.5)
A few years ago...
There was a world called Radiant Garden, it was a beautiful place ruled by Ansem the Wise. In the center of the world's heart lies Ansem's laboratory and some members there had to study diligently. Now, the laboratory is shrouded in eerie silence. There are two white coated people on the floor. During Ansem the Wise's research, these two people are Ienzo and Even.
"Ahh! This is good!?"
The man Braig... then a silver haired man somewhat walked at a brisk pace.
"Xehanort! You don't mind?"
The young man's name is Xehanort he said. Braig knew that this young man was different from the old man named Xehanort. In front of his eyes, the young man was entirely different in figure. With Xehanort defeated in battle, he was found lying and taking refuge in Radiant Garden and unable to recall his memories, Braig finds and tries to help him. Only Braig knew the true identity of the young man.
(pg.6)
The original name of the young man is Terra. Even though his hair color changed, it was still without a doubt Terra. After the battle of Xehanort, Terra seemed to have lost his memories. And then, when he woke up, he identified himself after the name of his enemy Xehanort.
With Terra's memories lost, was he only left with the name Xehanort or has he become a haboring body with the mind of Xehanort; that we do not know. It is unclear whether his memories are truly lost. Body and mind, which of these truly determines the person? One thing's for sure is that Braig was part of this trivial matter.
"I'm..."
Braig noticed a strange behavior in Xehanort. Xehanort held his right hand up and a Keyblade appeared in his hand. Braig gasped.
"Did your memories come back? They didn't disappear after all?"
However, Xehanort says.
"My name is not Xehanort."
Xehanort was in a state of denial. Braig was shocked. Is this Terra? A Keyblade was confronted in the chest of Braig's. It is unknown what happened to the remains of Braig at that moment, there were feelings of confliction in his thoughts.
(pg.7)
Braig's body has collapsed and from his chest, there is a light that emits his heart.
"My name is Ansem."
While fading, Braig heard his name faintly.
Traverse Town
(pg.10)
He began to realize that he was in Traverse Town.
Riku looked around. There was a sense of relief once he recognized the familiar fountain of two coupled animals in love, Lady and the Tramp. This is the third district.
In the past, he came to this town before manipulated by Maleficient. He came here again ever since that time.
At the time of the departure, their clothes have also changed. He wasn't able to depart together with Sora.
"Sora?"
