The Gathering

The Gathering is the name of the secret ending of Kingdom Hearts II. It is also commonly known as Sunset Horizons after the piece of backing soundtrack used during the video.

Summary
The video starts with the view of a desert. A semi-transparent Ansem's Report scrolls down the screen where one of them explains a detailed article on the Keyblade. There are a few shots of metal objects lying in the sand. The screen shows a man in armor, Terra standing amidst the desert waste, on the remains of a large construct decorated with various spikes. He looks to one side and sees another armored figure, Aqua approaching. Terra turns his head again and sees the third figure, Ventus, also approaching. As Aqua and Ven come closer, Terra walks towards three Keyblades standing alone in the wasteland, as the thing he was standing on dissipates in the same fashion as a dying Nobody. The three keyblades are Kingdom Key, Way to the Dawn, and Kingdom Key D. Terra takes the Kingdom Key, Ven takes Way to the Dawn, and Aqua takes Kingdom Key D.

The screen zooms out to show Terra, Ven, and Aqua standing in the center of a field of keychain-less Keyblades, one of which resembles the Fenrir Keyblade. They stand still for a few moments before something catches their attention and they all look up. A figure, too blurry to make out in the heat, is walking towards the three Keyblade Masters and words appear, briefly, on the screen in this order:


 * Master of Keyblade


 * The lost two


 * Memory of Xehanort


 * Chasers


 * Keyblade War

The screen goes black to show the last caption: "Birth by sleep".
