Realm of Darkness: Difference between revisions

Other characters who have used these corridors include Sora, Donald Duck, Goofy, King Mickey, [[Kairi]], Riku, [[Naminé]], [[Ansem the Wise|DiZ]], and even [[Pluto]]. Of these, only Riku, Naminé and DiZ have been responsible for summoning the portals, and only Heartless, Nobodies, and Princesses of Heart aren't affected, with two noted exceptions; according to Nomura in the [[Director's Secret Report XIII]], Riku and Mickey aren't affected by darkness at all, due to some "''secret similarities''". Ironically, in the first ''Kingdom Hearts'', after the face-off in Neverland, Riku's heart was significantly weakened as he carelessly used a Corridor of Darkness to return to Hollow Bastion. Nomura goes further to state that DiZ and the Beast can successfully use the Corridors of Darkness, and perhaps open them, due to their particularly strong feelings. Furthermore, despite Sora having used the Corridors of Darkness several times before, he has not used them frequently enough to allow the Darkness to stain his heart. The influential power of Darkness depends on the strength of a person's heart.
