Once the game finally begins after the opening Full Motion Video you are now in control of {{Wtext|Sora|c}}, the protagonist of ''Kingdom Hearts''. The first thing you need to do is walk into the light. Once that's done, three podiums will rise from the Station, one with the {{Wtext|Dream Shield|w}}, one with the {{Wtext|Dream Rod|w}} and one with the {{Wtext|Dream Sword|w}}. Each will mark your leveling pace, which [[Abilities (Kingdom Hearts)|Abilities]] you receive at a certain level, and which statistic will be higher than the other (for example, the Dream Rod adds 1 Magic and leaving the Dream Shield subtracts 1 Defense). Now, you must pick one and drop one:
After the cinematic opening video, you gain control of {{Wtext|Sora|c}}, standing on a Station in the '''Dive to the Heart'''. This first portion of the game acts as a tutorial, while determining how Sora will grow as the game progresses. A disembodied and noiseless voice will introduce you to the controls and basic gameplay. As per the voice's instructions, walk towards the light in the center. Three pedestals will rise from the Station, one with the {{Wtext|Dream Shield|w}}, one with the {{Wtext|Dream Rod|w}} and one with the {{Wtext|Dream Sword|w}}. You are instructed to choose one weapon to represent "the power you seek", and then one of the remaining two as the power you "give up in exchange". The choices you make will determine the different rates at which Sora's stats grow as he levels up, as well as the order of [[Abilities (Kingdom Hearts)|Abilities]] Sora learns.<!--Add details: what exactly is the affect of the choices?-->

Once you are finished and confirm your path, the Station shatters and you land on yet another Station, you are now given the first Dream weapon you chose to use. Now you must face a multitude of {{Wtext|Shadows|e}}, attack with your sword! Oh, only one? Never mind, pick up the HP orbs and read the multiple tutorial boxes that appear. They reappeared, attack! Once you've defeated enough, one will disappear which will cause the Station to become enveloped in Darkness, leading you to the third Station.
Once you have confirmed your choices, the Station below you shatters, and you fall to a different one. Here, you are given the first Dream weapon you chose, and you are directed to take a practice swing with it. You are introduced to the HP and MP gauges. Next, a group of {{Wtext|Shadows|e}} rise from the Station's surface to attack you. After you defeat one, the rest disappear, and you are introduced to leveling up and enemy drops. More Shadows appear, and you are introduced to [[Lock On|locking onto]] targets. Once you've defeated several enemies, the rest sink into pools of darkness that envelop the Station. You sink into the darkness, coming to atop the third Station.


On the third Station, you are asked to do simple tasks. First you must walk up to the door. Select "Examine" and Sora will observe the door. A {{Wtext|chest|t}} appears, select "Open" and you'll be given a large crate. Attack it three times and it will drop a {{Wtext|Potion|i}}, grab it, a fragment of the door appears. Now a barrel will appear, just break it like the crate and another door fragment will appear, completing it. Interact and go through.
The third Station introduces you to actions you can use in the field. First, approach the door and select the "Examine" command from the menu to cause a {{Wtext|chest|t}} to appear. Approach it and select the "Open" command, causing a large crate to appear. Attack it three times to break it, releasing a prize box with a {{Wtext|Potion|i}} inside. The frame of the door becomes solid, and a barrel appears. Break it with your weapon or throw it, and the rest of the door become solid, as well. Examine the door a second time to open it and to leave the Station.


Now you're in a small area with {{Wtext|Wakka|c}}, {{Wtext|Tidus|c}} and {{Wtext|Selphie|c}}. They will ask you questions of what your goals are in the game. These will change the pace of leveling up, you can check [[Walkthrough:Kingdom Hearts/Level Pace|Level Pace]] to see which pace you'd prefer. Once you're done, confirm your path and now you will return to the Station, '''Awakening''' where you will find your first [[Save Point]]. Walk into the light, and you will find {{Wtext|Shadows|e}}! Attack them and the Save Point will appear. Walk into the Save Point and the light will fly on to show a stained glass path which leads to the last Station where you will battle the {{Wtext|Darkside|b}}. Save, and walk onto the stained glass path into the light to face your fate! You get a Strength Up after the battle.
