'''Destiny's Embrace''' is the default form of [[Kairi]]'s [[Keyblade]] and a [[Keychain]] for [[Rainfell|Aqua's]] Keyblade that is introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.


== Story ==
When Kairi is still a child living in the [[Radiant Garden]], she is saved from a swarm of [[Unversed]] by [[Aqua]]. Kairi gives the Keyblade Master some flowers as thanks, rewarding her with the Keychain for the Destiny's Embrace.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep}} Eleven years later at [[The World That Never Was]], [[Riku]] hands a Keyblade equipped with another copy of this Keychain to [[Kairi]] so that she can help fend off a swarm of [[Heartless]] attacking [[Sora]]. Like Sora's Keyblade, this Keyblade is from the [[Realm of Light]].{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts II}}<ref>'''''[[Director's Secret Report XIII]]''''', p. 28; '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "That Keyblades are Light and Dark is not to say that there is one per side, and there exist as many of them as there are hearts of those who possess the capability. At the current stage, in regards to the requirements for possession, the only requirement that has become obvious is for "those whose hearts are strong", but there are also other requirements that have not yet been made clear, and we plan to reveal them at another opportunity. In nature, Riku's "Way to the Dawn" and the Keyblade that Kairi holds have become objects of the same nature as the Keyblade that Sora holds. However, there is no full explanation for the "Soul Eater" being generated as an intermediary [for the Way to the Dawn], or [the Keyblade that Kairi possesses] being handed over to Kairi from Riku, and when it's not close to the normal obtainment procedure, I think it's okay to feel that there's something more than meets the eye. "</ref> Later, when Sora is about to face Xemnas within the dream-version of [[The World That Never Was]], he explains that the connected hearts of his friends are his power, and an image of Kairi wielding the Destiny's Embrace appears alongside all of his other friends.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}}

When Kairi is still a child living in the [[Radiant Garden]], she is saved from a swarm of [[Unversed]] by [[Aqua]]. Kairi gives the [[Keyblade Master]] some flowers as thanks, rewarding her with the Keychain for the Destiny's Embrace.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
Eleven years later at [[The World That Never Was]], [[Riku]] hands a Keyblade equipped with this Keychain to [[Kairi]] so that she can help fend off a swarm of [[Heartless]] attacking [[Sora]]. Like Sora's Keyblade, this Keyblade is from the [[Realm of Light]].<ref>'''''[[Director's Secret Report XIII]]''''', p. 28; '''Tetsuya Nomura''': "There isn't just one Keyblade for the side of light and one for darkness. There are as many Keyblades in existence as there are hearts qualified to wield them. At this stage, the only requirement that has been made clear is that someone must have a "strong heart", but there are other requirements that haven't been spelled out yet which I plan to reveal another time when I have the chance. Riku's Way to the Dawn and the Keyblade Kairi wields are of the same nature as Sora's Keyblade. However, what with one having developed with the Soul Eater as intermediary and one having been handed to Kairi by Riku, I would like you to think that something not fully explained, outside the usual method of acquirement, is going on here."

===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
When Sora is about to face [[Xemnas]] within the dream-version of The World That Never Was, he explains that the connected [[hearts]] of his friends are his power, and an image of Kairi wielding the Destiny's Embrace appears alongside all of his other friends.
 
===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
Kairi wields Destiny's Embrace to fend of the army of Heartless, [[Nobodies]], and Unversed with the other [[Guardians of Light]] in the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], and during the battle against [[Saïx]], [[Xion]], and [[Xemnas]].
{{sec-stub}}<!--it appears more than just that-->
 
===''Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory''===
Kairi wields Destiny's Embrace to face off against the phantom Master Xehanort. She uses it until Xehanort incapacitates her.


==Design==
==Design==
The Keyblade is round and curvaceous to the point of appearing harmless. The hilt is shaped like a heart, one side of the hilt is formed in the shape of a breaking ocean wave, while the other is formed into a beige vine of sand that wraps around the shaft, which is colored to resemble a sunset. The vine connects to a bouquet of colorful flowers, which form the teeth of the Keyblade and entwine to outline another heart. A red silken keychain connects the hilt to the [[paopu fruit]] token. Kairi's version of the Destiny's Embrace is slightly shorter than Aqua's.

A red silken keychain connects the hilt to the [[Paopu Fruit]] token, a recurring symbol of the bond between Sora and Kairi. Kairi's version of the Destiny's Embrace is slightly shorter than Aqua's.
 
When Kairi attacks with the Destiny's Embrace in ''Kingdom Hearts III'', the hits make chiming sounds like a piano, while leaving glowing feathers and assorted flower blossoms behind. The blue wave design of the blade now resembles glass and has a constant flowing water effect.
