Terra-Xehanort, at the time using his king's name, "Ansem", willingly gave his heart to the darkness in the pursuit of knowledge, creating both his Heartless and his Nobody, [[Xemnas]]. His Heartless was able to retain its selfhood for uncertain reasons, though it was believed by the first [[Ansem the Wise|Ansem]] that this was due to Terra-Xehanort's willing abandonment of his heart.<ref>'''Secret Ansem Report 10''': "But what if one willingly releases one's heart from one's body? Sora and Xehanort retained their self-hood even after becoming Heartless."</ref> By casting off his body, Ansem also gained the ability to travel through time. | Terra-Xehanort, at the time using his king's name, "Ansem", willingly gave his heart to the darkness in the pursuit of knowledge, creating both his Heartless and his Nobody, [[Xemnas]].

The self-styled "Seeker of Darkness" and the legions of Heartless at his command continued Xehanort's pursuit of knowledge in the belief that it lay with darkness, and stole countless hearts from both humans and worlds in their search for their ultimate goal, a legendary repository of tremendous power and knowledge known as [[Kingdom Hearts]]. To reach this heart of all worlds, Ansem would need to open the Final Keyhole, and to do that, he would need the [[Princesses of Heart]] to complete it first. He also realized that he needed to locate and neutralize the wielder of the legendary Keyblade, to prevent them from saving the worlds from his Heartless. | The self-styled "Seeker of Darkness" and the legions of Heartless at his command continued Xehanort's pursuit of knowledge in the belief that it lay with darkness, and stole countless hearts from both humans and worlds in their search for their ultimate goal, a legendary repository of tremendous power and knowledge known as [[Kingdom Hearts]].

He also realized that he needed to locate and neutralize the wielder of the legendary Keyblade, to prevent them from saving the worlds from his Heartless. He detected a power within [[Kairi]], a Princess of Heart living within Radiant Garden, linking her to a guardian of light, which he misidentified as an innate connection between Princesses and Keyblade wielders. In truth, the power within Kairi was the charm Aqua had placed upon her, with much the same effect—when he cast her loose in the [[Ocean Between]], she was naturally drawn to Sora and Riku on the Destiny Islands.<!--format this and cite as ref to 20 mysteries, BbS Ultimania, translation goldpanner | ||
Q6: Why did Kairi end up with Sora and Riku? | |||
A: It has to do with Aqua’s “magic”. | |||
Nine years before KH, Kairi was thrust into the outside world, and found herself on Sora and Riku’s world. Ansem Seeker of Darkness thought that she had been able to search for a keyblade wielder, but what actually saved her was the magic spell Aqua had put on her. | |||

Aqua: “Someday your light will lead you to a light that will protect you from the darkness.” | |||
The magic Aqua puts on Kairi saves her once year later. | |||

Ansem Seeker of Darkness felt a special power within Kairi and tried to use her to find the keyblade.--> Meanwhile, Ansem traveled through time to Destiny Islands and completed his mission with the young Xehanort, then returned to his own time.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance}} | |||
