| This article is about the episode of Birth by Sleep Final Mix. You may be looking for its continuation or the Secret Episode from Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind. |
"A Fragmentary Passage", also referred to as the "Secret Episode" (シークレットエピソード Shīkuretto Episōdo), is a secret ending exclusive to Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix. Unlike other secret endings, "A Fragmentary Passage" is playable, much like the Final Episode, rather than simply watching from the view of a bystander.[1][2]
In "A Fragmentary Passage", Aqua is playable, the main setting being the Realm of Darkness, where Aqua fights several Pureblood Heartless while wielding Eraqus's Master's Defender. As with the Final Episode, the player's progress with Aqua is carried over; however, unlike with the Final Episode, the player cannot access the World Map due to Aqua being trapped in the Realm of Darkness.
Synopsis[edit]
The secret ending opens with Sora sleeping on the Destiny Islands, with Kairi approaching him to wake up, mirroring the opening to Kingdom Hearts.
