:The heart of [[worlds]] was a great heart that gathered everything that formed those worlds: the natural things such as the trees in the forests, the oceans and rivers, the flowers and such. The heart of people, as it is called, was the collected hearts of the humans and animals and such that lived in those worlds. A Kingdom Hearts is considered to be an aggregation of the originally invisible "proofs of life" known as [[hearts]]. | :I think of 'all life has heart' as the most basic premise of KH.

:As for the structure of the worlds, first, the so-to-speak normal worlds—the ones that [[Sora]], the Disney characters and we live on—are situated in the [[Realm of Light]]. If you picture those worlds as existing on the same level on top of a giant plane, then on a separate level, in other words on the reverse side, exists the [[Realm of Darkness]]. | :As for the structure of the worlds, first, the so-to-speak normal worlds—the ones that [[Sora]], the Disney characters and we live on—are situated in the [[Realm of Light]].

You can think of them as arranged like a stairway extending between the two Realm layers, something like Light < C < B > A > D > Darkness. There are two ways to travel, one of which is to use a [[Gummi Ship]] like Sora and his friends do to move through the "Ocean Between", the space studded with all the worlds. Worlds are encased in an invisible shell which keeps the individual world from being breached by other worlds, but when the door to the heart that exists in each world is opened, the shell covering that world is broken, and it rains down as a meteor shower. The meteors, fragments of that shell, result in [[Gummi Blocks]] for Gummi Ships. Gummi Blocks have the ability to breach any world as they were originally part of the world-covering shells. | ||
:The other way is to use a "[[corridor of darkness]]". These routes are like a loophole of sorts and not pathways that should rightfully be used. While only those known as beings of darkness and beings of between are able to create entries and exits, in rare cases even other kinds of beings such as the [[Beast]] and [[DiZ]], who held strong sentiment or hatred in their hearts, have been able to open a path themselves. However, this means being near the darkness. Make frequent use of the pathways and the darkness will completely erode one's body. Sora and his friends have also used these pathways a handful of times, but you could consider that the effect of passing through a corridor of darkness is influenced by the strength of one's heart, and as such they have not used them to the degree of frequency that their hearts could have been stained by darkness. In which case, why hasn't erosion by darkness progressed in the heart-lacking [[Nobodies]], [[King Mickey]] or [[Riku]], despite them having used the pathways frequently? There is a secret relating to a feature they all share, explained in this very title. | :The other way is to use a "[[corridor of darkness]]".
