Maybe. If we do? I probably won't go back to the inn at all. [his island!!!! also dorothy better stay alive or so help me. but there's a somewhat shy grin at that.]
I guess it's just familiar to me. I've been to a few castles before and...I don't know. It's a nice idea. Princesses deserve to be happy, don't they?
[he says. having met lots of princesses.] And Donald and Goofy are from a royal court under the King anyway.
Yeah. He's the Captain of the knights for King Mickey's court. We've been traveling together for a while now. [and she didn't ask, but:] Donald's the royal magician.
...oh. I guess I never really told you, huh? [oops.] Donald and Goofy were sent out by the king to look for the Keyblade. It's a weapon I have, it's the weapon that these creatures called the Heartless are afraid of. The darkness can be fought with it. It's...a sword shaped like a large key, but it helps with my magic and can take on different forms, too. The Heartless are creatures that're born when people lose their hearts to the darkness.
Originally the king wanted to find the Keyblade in order to use it to seal Kingdom Hearts. If we didn't close the door to the Realm of Darkness, darkness would flood out and destroy all of the worlds that were left. So with the Keyblade, we traveled to a bunch of places that were invaded by Heartless in order to destroy them and lock those worlds' hearts to keep them safe. We didn't learn until later that there was a much bigger problem, so...our journey kept going even while we were trying to find the king and my friends Riku and Kairi.
Probably not. [he laughs a little.] There's a lot of worlds out there, Dorothy. One for every star in the sky. So it doesn't surprise me that your world sees things and people differently.
I didn't think about the part where it's so uncommon. [and then people started questioning him here and he went "oh. right."] It was weird when I first started, but now it's weirder not to, if that makes sense? Like I don't know how I can stay in one place for so long anymore.
Yeah. [...] We also didn't really have much choice because things kept threatening the safety of all of those worlds out there. So we kept traveling further and further to protect them.
...it's this place called the Final World where sleep and death overlap. People go there when their bodies and hearts have perished. I've been there for a while now. I don't think there's a way for me to leave yet, but there might be someday.
Well I still have a form even if I shouldn't. Chirithy told me that I would lose my powers which means I couldn't leave the Final World and I couldn't go back where I came from. But that doesn't mean there maybe isn't another way back.
...it's been about a year though, I think. I stopped counting after a while.
