Kingdom Hearts (series)/Timeline: Difference between revisions

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||When the [[Master of Masters]] is a boy, a war rages between the physical manifestations of light and the thirteen darknesses. To finally win against light, [[Darkness (character)|Darkness]] abandoned its physical form and became a whole entity, but its will could not be maintained. In order to propagate and increase their numbers, it begins to infect people's hearts with darkness, turning them into Pureblood Heartless.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||During his adulthood, the Master of Masters takes six apprentices, gifting each of them Keyblades forged from their hearts, who are then renamed [[Aced]], [[Ava]], [[Gula]], [[Invi]], [[Ira]], and [[Luxu]].||

|[[File:Reporting In 01 KHXBC.png|200px]]||The [[Master of Masters]] writes the [[Book of Prophecies]], knowing that Darkness would watch from nearby to learn the events of the future. Once the book is completed, he gifts it to five of six of his apprentices, the [[foreteller]]s.||

|[[File:The Foretellers 01 KHXBC.png|200px]]||The [[Union]]s are created in [[Daybreak Town]], each led by a foreteller, with the aim to recruit Keyblade wielders and collect [[Lux]] to battle Darkness.||[[File:KHCHI icon.png]]<br>[[File:KHCHIBC icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||Before the foretellers were given their roles, the Master of Masters and Luxu would meet in the Control constantly where they discussed the past and the future of the world. Luxu expresses disappointed that the [[Dandelions]] would have to flee to a new world to rebuild rather than fight against Darkness. However, the Master of Masters assures him that there is a way to defeat Darkness, but it will take many lifetimes to accomplish it.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||Aware that Darkness could not be defeated without a physical form, the Master of Masters's real purpose of training his students was to make their hearts strong enough so they could lock the seven strongest darknesses away. The Master of Masters intends to have five of the remaining six darknesses locked within the five subsequent Union leaders, leaving the last to be caged within Data-Daybreak Town.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Case of Ava 01 KHXBC.png|200px]]||The Master of Masters tasks each of his foretellers a crucial role they must carry out if he should ever disappear.

|[[File:The Clash 01 KHXBC.png|200px]]||The foretellers discover a traitor in their midst with the appearance of a [[Nightmare]] [[Chirithy]]. Due to the loss of a security blanket in the Master's guidance, and their own ineptitude and incompetence in carrying out their roles, they begin to suspect one another of treason. The squabbling eventually turns into all-out battles among the Unions, all but ensuring the coming of the prophesied [[Keyblade War]].||[[File:KHCHI icon.png]]<br>[[File:KHCHIBC icon.png]]

||[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||Unbeknownst to them all, it was the Nightmare Chirithy that stole Lux causing the Keyblade wielder's hearts to be consumed by darkness, turning them into Darklings.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]  

|[[File:Case of Ava 02 KHXBC.png|200px]]||Master [[Ava]] forms the Dandelions, an organization of gifted Keyblade wielders, meant to avoid the Keyblade War and work to rebuild the new world to come.

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||Upon further discussion the group, despite believing Ventus' innocence, ask him to remember his encounter with Master Ava. He recalls meeting her in a dimly lit house and leaving together, not remembering much else. However, understanding that it wasn't Ava's intention to change the leaders, Brain concludes that Darkness was who appointed Ventus among their ranks, replacing Strelitzia with him. So they return to the clock tower to inform Lauriam.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||With Darkness' help Maleficient escapes to the real world, but not her own time. The entity suggests using a second pod to get there. Though, it turned down her offer to come, since it has some unfinished business.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||The strain of trying to remember puts Ventus in his sleeping corridors. Meanwhile, the others notice that he was there during Strelitzia's disappearance and slowly realize that Darkness is closing in. Through his dreams Ventus fully remembered what happened during his and "Master Ava's" encounter, causing him to wake up in sorrow, as he felt responsible for what happened to Strelitzia.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||Now that the leaders were aware that Darkness was here, they were left with many unanswered questions.

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||While conversing with Darkness, the Union leaders discovered that it has no goals. When they asked why it killed Strelitzia, the entity admits that it was a hidden desire of Ventus's, as he wanted power,  much to his comrades' protest and disbelief. Darkness reveals they are an old acquaintance of the Master of Masters and that Ventus is meant to harbor the Darkness as the "fated child". Brain leads the others in a fight to destroy Darkness.||[[File:KHUCHI icon.png]]

|[[File:Missing Image.png|200px]]||Meanwhile even though the Nightmare Chirithy was gone, the Darklings followed Player through their investigation of them and the glitches.

The Union Leaders split up, Brain using his knowledge to help the others from the real world, Lauriam going to find answers about his sister with Elrena accompanying him and for his safety Ventus goes with them.
