Destiny Place, as it appears in Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep

Destiny Place (デスティニープレイス Desutinī Pureisu?) is a Keyblade which appears in Kingdom Hearts II. It was given to Kairi by Riku in The World That Never Was in order to fight a swarm of Heartless attacking Sora. Like Sora's Keyblade, this Keyblade is from the Realm of Light, and while there are certain unknown reasons as to why Kairi was able to wield it, it is known that it is in part due to the strength of her heart.[1]

Destiny Place is only seen in one scene in Kingdom Hearts II, but in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Kairi gives flowers to Aqua during their encounter, unlocking the Keyblade for Aqua.

Design

The Keyblade is round and curvaceous to the point of appearing non-dangerous. One side of the hilt is formed in the shape of a breaking ocean wave, while the other is formed into a beige vine of sand which wraps around the sunset shaft to burst forth into a bouquet of flowers for the teeth in resemblance thier home world, Destiny Islands. A red silken keychain connects the hilt to the Paopu Fruit token, a recurring symbol of the bond between Sora and Kairi.

Notes and References

  1. ^ Director's Secret Report XIII, p. 28; Tetsuya Nomura: "There isn't necessarily one Keyblade for the dark side and one for the light side, just as many as there exist people with qualified hearts. Concerning the conditions to wield one, at this stage, 'those with strong hearts' is the only obvious one. However, less obvious conditions still exist and there are still plans for an opportunity to reveal those. Riku's 'Way to the Dawn' and Kairi's Keyblade are naturally the same type of Keyblade as Sora's. However there is no particular explanation for the Soul Eater's transfer and occurrence, as well as Riku's handing it to Kairi. When there isn't a normal process of acquisition, I think it's okay to think there is some deeper meaning there."
