Returning to Scala ad Caelum and discuss their findings with Odin, Odin informs them that Vidar is attempting to locate seven pure lights and thirteen darknesses in an effort to summon Kingdom Hearts and purge all worlds of True Darkness, the source of all darkness and the main instigators of the ancient [[Keyblade War]]. Believing that this is beyond the scope of the wielder's abilities, Odin asks them to cease their mission. In truth, Odin had actually manipulated Vidar to begin his mission to summon Kingdom Hearts, believing that this would facilitate the rise of the prophesized Seeker of Darkness.

Refusing to simply give up, the classmates meet outside to discuss their next move. During their discussion, Baldr show up and reveals the death of the  upper classmen. Revealing that he stumbled upon a world that contains an underworld of lost spirits, Baldr directs the group to search [[Olympus Coliseum]], in an attempt to make contact with the spirits of the slain wielders. Traveling to this world, the group encounters [[Hades]] and are transported to the Underworld. Once there, Xehanort, Eraqus, and Bragi encounter and fight [[Cerberus]], only to be saved by Baldr. Upon escaping, Xehanort begins to suspect that something simply isn't adding up, but does not let Eraqus know his suspicions on Baldr just yet. Xehanort and Eraqus encounter the souls of the four slain upperclassmen and that something much more sinister was responsible, pulling the strings from behind the scenes. Imploring for Xehanort and Eraqus to find the truth, the four classmen finally depart. When Xehanort, Eraqus, Urd, and Hermod run into Hades again, he attempts to make them permanent residents of the Underworld, until a dark corridor suddenly opens and sucks the wielders in. Within the corridor, Urd and Hermod are suddenly slain by a figure cloaked in darkness. Xehanort and Eraqus almost fall victim to the same figure until Odin appears and rescues the pair, bringing them back to Scala ad Caelum.

Scala ad Caelum is then suddenly attacked by the forces of darkness. While Odin leaves to deal with the threat, Xehanort reveals that he suspected that Baldr had been corrupted by darkness following the death of his sister and is now picking off their fellow classmates. Baldr appears possessed by darkness and by the time Xehanort and Eraqus arrive at the tower, they are too late and witness Baldr unleash a Heartless to murder Vidar and Vor. Tearfully saying goodbye to Vor, Xehanort and Eraqus confront Baldr at the top of the tower who reveals his true plans. The darkness controlling Baldr was manipulating Vidar to summon Kingdom Hearts. While Xehanort is finally able to gain the upper hand on Baldr, the darkness clouds Xehanort's mind, revealing to him that it's not one of the ancient darknesses, but a new variant formed from the the wielders. Revealing that darkness has been able to grow in this manner through others and that Xehanort himself would be a worthy vessel, the darkness is then shocked to find Baldr's sister's heart has taken residence in Xehanort's, in an attempt to get her brother free. While Baldr is temporary restored to his senses and restrained by Odin, Baldr reveals that he felt destined to darkness with so many light-obsessed wielders by his side. The darkness eventually overtakes him once again and snuffs out the remaining light of his sister's spirit.

Baldr appears possessed by darkness and by the time Xehanort and Eraqus arrive at the tower, they are too late and witness Baldr unleash a Heartless to murder Vidar, Vali, Vala, and Vor. Tearfully saying goodbye to Vor, Xehanort and Eraqus confront Baldr at the top of the tower who reveals his true plans. The darkness controlling Baldr was manipulating Vidar to summon Kingdom Hearts so that it may restructure the world towards its own designs.

Xehanort, rather than purge the darkness from Baldr, slays him to end the conflict for good, leaving Xehanort and Eraqus as the only students left alive. Over the next month, Xehanort and Eraqus often visited the graves of their fallen comrades and friends. Eventually reconnecting again, Xehanort and Eraqus resolved to continue their training and become Keyblade Masters, with Odin preparing to conduct their Mark of Mastery exams in the next several years.
