KH3D A Theory About Terra's Role in KH3 (Spoilers)

[Spades 3]

Okay so we all know about the seven lights and the thirteen seekers of darkness but as Xehanort all so politely pointed out for us he had already corrupted one of the seven (Terra) and was on his way to double up on his corruption. This pretty obviously removes him from being one of the seven with his place going to Lea. But I really doubt Nomura is going to have him do absolutely nothing in the final battle, honestly I think Terra might end up being the most important player in instrumenting Xehanort's downfall and here's why.

 

Xehanort's biggest advantage (being able to split his heart and fill other vessels with it) might end up being his greatest disadvantage. Terra's and Xehanort's hearts are interlinked, while he was always in control he was never able to completely banish Terra as blank points showed us. Instead Terra is biding his time until he can win his body back. When he divided his heart to fill the other vessels it goes to reason that he divided Terra's heart as well. If Terra can win control back of his heart even just for a brief moment he might be able to gain control of not just his body, but every vessel that Xehanort filled his essence with.

 

Xehanort told Mickey to meet him in that place (The Keyblade Graveyard) when the lights were assembled. Who else do we know of that resides in that place? None other than The Lingering Sentiment who will probably be up for smacking around some norts, and as a result of it merely being Terra's armor it would not count as one of the seven lights, helping to even the odds a little.

 

I can see Terra waging a battle on two fronts when we get to the climax. His Lingering Sentiment helping Aqua, Ven and the others on the physical plain, while he and Eraqus battle Xehanort in a dive to the heart, trying to wrest control of the vessels from him. Master and pupils defeating xehanort together.

 

So what do you think?

[PuellaMagiAquaMagica 24]

This is interesting. I would like to see this happening, Terra battling Xehanort inside.

 

I like your theory but since I haven't understand much about KH3D I can't contribute more, but nice.

[replika13 455]

yeah this is nice theory.

[TheForgottenOne 3]

I Really like that theory and if it actually played out it would be so badass! Imagine that cutscene and battle.....daaaaamn

[scrawlx101 1]

nice but Terra is one of the lights Axel=Lea and he is just a weilder.Terra may come bak as LS tht would be AWESSSSOME!

[Spades 3]

I know he was supposed to be one of the lights, but that's the rub. Xehanort himself said that Mickey would have to find three more because two of the lights (Terra and Sora) were going to be under his control and be on team dark instead. Terra is still under Xehanorts control and is one of the thirteen seekers of darkness instead. Lea is the obvious one to take his place.

So what do you think?

 

part of Terra's heart is in Riku and the Lingering Will. So his heart is much weaker if it's divided this much.

I wonder why mickey has a golden keyblade when mickey meets sora in kh2 and also Sora has one in the opening CG of the KH2

i like that theory a whole lot it would be awesome if sora came back with a new element and fully mastered light/dark better than riku it wud be awesome

Where does it say part of Terra's heart is in Riku? I haven't really watched all of the videos so i'm just curious. And I don't think part of his heart resides in the LS. Wasn't it just animated by Terra's rage at Xehanort? "Your body submits, your heart succumbs, so why does your mind resist!?"

 

And as Xehanort is kind of demonstrating dividing your heart doesn't really seem to weaken you all that much if at all.

[DarknessOrLight 32]

I think that that would be very great, but I still can't help believing that Terra will be one of the seven lights. Maybe he takes control of his body once and for all before the final battle. Don't get me wrong, I think your theory is amazing and would definitely love to see that happen, but I think it will not.

Terra's heart is connected to Riku.

 

-- In "KHI", the robed man, Ansem the Wise's apprentice Xehanort's Heartless (the body of Xehanort's Heartless before he inhabited Riku's body), appeared on the Destiny Islands. Is this because it was Master Xehanort's homeworld?

 

Nomura: That may be one reason, but if he somehow had some of Terra's memories, we can consider that it might be because he had laid eyes on Riku previously. In terms of the elements of Terra and Master Xehanort, I think the questions of how their power is related and divided, as well as who has whose memories and heart, will become a key to the story* after this one.

 

-- Is that to say that there's a possibility that within Xehanort's Heartless, the darkness that sleeps in Riku's heart, there might remain something of Terra...?

 

Nomura: That's also a riddle connected to the next story,* so everyone please use your imagination.

 

 

It's kind of implied from this interview with Nomura on BbS.

As for the the LS, I forgot about the mind, haha.

That's fine. I'm just speculating after all. He can still end up being one of the seven lights but i'm kind of hoping he doesn't. If nothing for the interesting conflict it will bring for Aqua and Ven if they have to choose between protecting the light and Terra.

that would actually work quite well; the reason riku is able to resist the darkness and ansem sod is because the one person that was almost able to is influencing and helping riku (terra)

Thats probably one of the most probable theories of KH3 I have heard even though they probably havent even started writing it yet! great job I hope Nomura does somthing like that.

[KingdomHearts0123 18]

awesome theory, I can see Nomura doing something like this in KH3, or coming up with an even better idea, but so far this theory makes the final battle in KH3 sound epic. personally tho I hope Terra & ME get thier bodies back before before the Final battle with MX.

[Ryan Gardner 1]

Question. How exactly is Terra's heart split in all this? I know that in BBS MX forced himself in Terra's heart, but from the looks of 3D, MX pre-Terra possession was the one dividing his heart. If that could be explained, I'd appreciate it. But as for KH3, I just kinda thought that Ven would end up facing Terranort, and Ven's presence would trigger something in Terra, maybe momentarily giving him control and ask Ven to "put an end to him" like Ven asked Terra in BBS. Just something I was pondering earlier.

[Spades 3]

Because his heart and Xehanort's are interlocked. If you remember when Aqua and Terra-Xehanort fight he can only lock away Terra's heart by locking both of theirs and in blank points he claims that his heart will eventually engulf Terra's completely.

 

And if you remember the original Xehanort is only able to return because Xemnas and Ansem SoD were defeated. Allowing his heart and Terra's to return to his body.
