Sayz: I’m having a ‘Kingdom Hearts’ week! Today’s blog is part of a mini, week-long
series that I’m working on, pondering over various theories surrounding the
characters and events that may be revealed in ‘Kingdom Hearts III’ when it is
released at the end of January next year. These theories are meant to be just
light, fun and speculation – none of this if fact nor is it meant to be taken
seriously. Today I am going to look into the whereabouts of Ventus and his
importance in ‘Kingdom Hearts III’.)
Where is Ventus? Well we know that Aqua hid him in The Land of Departure, which is now known as Castle Oblivion, in The Chamber of Waking, but where is that? Sora, Riku and various members of Organisation XIII have been in Castle Oblivion’s many rooms. Lord Xemnas even had members of Organisation XIII search the castle to try and find the chamber. So where is it?
Aqua said in ‘Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep’ that Ven is safe and that she has to get out of the realm of darkness to wake him up. However, we know from the ‘Kingdom Hearts III’ ‘Frozen’ trailer that Aqua has been norted – her eyes have turned from blue to yellow (the same colour as Master Xehanort’s), however when you freeze the frame she does not appear to have the pointed, elven ears, so has she become one of Master Xehanort’s vessels or has she just given her heart to the darkness? Either way, whether she is a vessel to Master Xehanort or whether she has given herself to the darkness, can Aqua wake up Ven? If Aqua has been taken over by darkness, can she find her way to the land between the Realm of Light and the Realm of Darkness? Even if she does, does she still have what it takes to wake Ventus? If Aqua has become a vessel to Master Xehanort, is he trying to manipulate her into finding The Chamber of Waking and Ventus for him? How much of her is now being controlled by Master Xehanort? What if she does make her way The Chamber of Waking – can she wake Ventus if she is norted? Does she need a pure heart, full of light, love and friendship to wake him?
Will Sora be the one to find Ventus and wake him up, as he holds his heart? This would make sense, as Ventus’ heart lies within Sora – after his heart became separated from his body, following his battle with Vanitas. In order for Ven to fully awaken, he needs his heart back, so it would make sense if Sora were to be the one to awaken him.
Will Riku and King Mickey be the ones to wake up Ventus? Master Yen Sid does send them on the mission to bring Aqua back, but once Riku and King Mickey discover that Aqua’s heart now has ties to the darkness, perhaps they will try to find and awaken Ventus? Riku has been to Castle Oblivion before, so perhaps he may be able to come up with a plan as to where The Chamber of Waking may be. We also saw Replica Riku make an appearance in one of the new, ‘E3’, ‘Kingdom Hearts III’ trailers, so might he know where The Chamber of Waking is?
Will Axel/Lea be the one to wake up Ventus? With Lea now returned to his true form and training to wield his key blade, once Master Yen Sid hears of Aqua turning to the darkness, might he send Lea to return to Castle Oblivion in hopes of locating Ventus? What will happen when Lea finds him? Will Lea think that he has found Roxas? I think that this would be very interesting, seeing as Axel and Roxas were best friends (and Ventus and Roxas look identical). Lea will become confused and memories of Roxas will come flooding back. As Ventus and Roxas’ hearts are both connected through Sora, will Lea’s strong light and friendship for Roxas help in setting Ventus’ heart free and awakening him?
What do I think? Will Aqua, Sora, Riku and King Mickey or Lea find and wake up Ventus? Will Master Xehanort or Lord Xemnas discover The Chamber of Waking first? Will Ven be saved at all? I will definitely be pondering over these thoughts some more, whilst we wait in anticipation for the end of the Xehanort Saga.
