Mark of Mastery exam

Unreleased

A Master Qualification Exam is an exam/event for Terra and Aqua in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Ventus, however, isn't qualified as he is too young. Master Eraqus describes it as "a test of the heart for those who have been chosen by the Keyblade". According to Tetsuya Nomura, apprentices of Keyblade Masters can take the exam to become Keyblade Masters themselves. If they pass the test, they have two choices: they can either take over the land and take on apprentices, as Master Eraqus did, or strike out on their own, as Master Xehanort did. If one who passed chooses to strike out on their own, there are many different paths they can take.
