Defeating Xehanort for good was in fact easy!

[MarkXIIII 106]

I was thinking and I realized that in DDD we already had the chance to defeat Xehanort once and for all!

 

I'm serious!

 

If Riku had killed Young Xehanort, he would not have been able to return back in time and grow into old Xehanort. Therefore he wouldn't have been there to become Apprentice Xehanort and also there would have been no Ansem and Xemnas.

 

Or does this fall into one of the two time travel theories:

 

* If you return back in time to tell your grandfather not to go where he would meet your grandmother, and they would never meet - theoretically you would cease to exist.

BUT as you have existed once, how can you go back in time and tell your gramps NOT to go there?

Therefore you basically create a parallel universe!

 

* The second theory suggests that even if you travel back in time to prevent, say a window from being broken, some other event would break it. The theory says that everything is laid out in a straight and preset universe and even going back in time does not change anything because the outcome is set and we can only move towards one final destination.

 

-> This also sounds familiar, right? Destiny cannot be changed is one of the Time-Nort rules, right?

 

 

What do you think? Will the heroes in III defeat Young Xehanort and therefore end all the north?

And how would this affect

Ven as Vanitas would never have been born?

Aqua and Terra and Eraqus who would have has their happily ever after in the LoD?

Sora and Riku who never would have set out to save the world?

Kairi who never would have left Radiant Garden?

NAmine and Roxas who never would have been born? Same for Xion.

 

No Heartless and Nobodies and Dreameaters.

No darkness would have threatened the worlds and 

Mickey and Donald and Goofy would never have left their Castle...

 

 

Now that would be one shitty ending for KHIII, eh?

I support the one line theory. 

 

Killing your grandpa would just mean there is another universe where you don't exist while there is your own where your grandpa never got killed.

[Robbie the Wise 5,050]

They can't kill Young Xehanort without breaking the laws of time travel. So yeah

[Kaweebo 3,617]

You're confusing me with all of these big concepts and silly words. 

[HarLea Quinn 26,501]

One of the rules of TT are that you cannot change the past .It's a constant time loop

[PrinceNoctis 1,011]

That would only if time paradoxes we're part of the KH Universe and they are not. And If they had defeated Master Xehanort this way then the whole story of Kingdom Hearts would be erased and that would be a BIG BUMMER...And Kairi wouldn't even know Sora and Riku

I think this thread is just a dead end, lol

I don't think the Darknesses physically travel in time, rather it's just their heart/consciousness. "Killing" Young Xehanort won't really do anything since he, in my opinion, doesn't physically exist in the present.

 

The only way to defeat Xehanort is to defeat the newest incarnation of Xehanort, which is allowing his other incarnations to time-travel to the present. As soon as Terra is saved and he regains control of his body, Xehanort should be defeated. Of course, others such as Braig might need to be defeated too since they might harbour some of Xehanort.

Yes the Darknesses do physically travel in time. Young Xehanort us the key. Once he was given power over time all the other Xehanort's were put in a state in which they could be pulled forward in time. As Young Xehanort travels forward he pulls the other Norts with him acting as a portal for them to move forward. That's why Xemnas and Anaemia always appeared alongside Young Xehanort.

Oh, yeah. You could be right. What do you think happens when a Nort dies, then? He returns to his original timeline before his canon death? We still don't know what will happen if Young Xehanort dies, but I doubt his "death" will be the end of Xehanort through time paradox's... That seems a bit too cheap to be how Xehanort is finally defeated. That's why I propose that none of the Norts are physically travelling through time (as in, their bodies, souls, and hearts), instead they are all simply physical manifestations of hearts. A heart can't be killed, only released from a vessel to return to it's original body or Kingdom Hearts.

 

Its probably entirely wrong, but it's a hypothesis for a reason
