Mission Walkthrough
Emblem missions are a new type of mission. Instead of the focus being on defeating enemies, the goal is to collect as many silver Organization Emblems as you can. If you do not want to complete the bonus objective, just run around and collect emblems until your mission gauge is full and you can RTC. However, the full gauge is achieved by collecting Emblems while they still have green rings around them similar to the heart chain rings you see around Heartless. The longer they're there, the smaller they get. Rings can be reset by one of three methods:


 * 1) Touching an Emblem.
 * 2) Defeating a Heartless.
 * 3) Entering a new area.

Resetting by the first method is ill-advised, as it keeps you from achieving full breakthrough. It is advised you keep a few Heartless around as you run so you can reset the rings if needed. Redoing this level once you have High Jump and Glide is advisable if you have problems the first time through, as some of the rings are in difficult areas to reach without those skills.

You will enter at the Agrabah Gates. There are no Emblems in this area. There are ten in the Agrabah Streets area and five in the Palace area.
