The portal will take him somewhere new. Somewhere he's supposed to be. He'll meet people, become someone great. He just has to make it... The wind howls in his ears and tears at his clothes. Darkness ripples past in shifting colors; purple, black, grey, and deep indigo. He'll remember it when he sees an oil spill. He'll never properly be able to describe it. His hands are on his knees, his back hunched. He's so tired; he didn't realize it'd be so far.

"Xehanort!" Metal fingers wrap around his wrist. Eraqus's voice is high and scared. He looks up, head heavy with his own armor. "We have to keep going. We have to get back before-." He nods and grasps Eraqus's arm. Just a bit further. They have to make it in time. They have to. He looks back, ready to offer a hand to Hermod, to Urd.

Two suits of armor are collapsed, just at the edge of his sight in the swirling dark. They look lifeless, empty, but he swears their hands twitch toward his. They should go back, they can still help. But Eraqus's fingers are tight around his arm, like a chain yanking him further away. They're dead already. They're already gone. They can still save the others.

Eraqus's hand is a burning shackle around his wrist. It tugs him forward, toward a distant speck of light. Eraqus refracts it, makes it burn against his skin. He tries to loosen his grip or to shift to a better position, but it only tightens further. His heart is racing as they claw their way forward. For Vor, for everyone, if they can just get back to Master Odin. The wind screams and Eraqus slams into him.

He's standing on the roof under a perfect blue sky. The sun shines so brightly off twin heads of white. One shivers, barely present. She's only one of many ghosts lurking at the corners of his vision. Gold light flares like sparks catching on tinder; chains only make Baldr hiss. Master Odin's voice is a pained bellow. "Xehanort, now!"

He's able to walk forward, to look him in the eyes. "I see myself...in you." The darkness roils off of him in sickening waves. He lifts his keyblade and in perfect form cuts his classmate down.

Lightning cracks across the sky. The stones go gray as the rain soaks them. The carvings are so sharp, so new. Empty eyes watch him, darkness trickling down their faces. Except for one. His chest is cracked open, the veins filled with light. "They'll never forget. He'll never stop seeing it." The white flowers, brought earlier today, are slowly turning red. He turns his face up to the clouds. He doesn't have to see to know the shade of red painted all over his hands.

He wants to scream until his voice breaks. He wants to dig up the earth until he finds the thing responsible for this and he can break it between his hands. He wants to stop hearing muffled sobbing through the walls and seeing ghosts. He wants to go back home to years and years ago when he could tuck himself under his mother's arm. He wants to fix it all, the broken and rotten system that calls itself order.

Someone comes up behind him, calls his name. He turns, keyblade in hand, and runs them through. Eraqus stares at him in horror and then his face twists with hate. "Murderer," he says through a mouthful of blood. And then he dissolves, as he always would have, into pure light. Xehanort lunges forward, tries to grab a piece; he needs it, he's lost it. He stretches out a hand-.

-and closes it over nothing. The sky is dark above him, the stars hidden by the dust storm quickly closing in. He uncurls his fingers, feeling time tick by.

"Destiny can be so cruel."

The soft clink of old metal grows louder as the winds pick up. Soon everything will be lost to sand and scouring wind. Xehanort casts one more look over the unnamed, but still marked graves. These rusted keyblades have stood for ages and will stand for ages more.

As if he needed more proof.

Xehanort leaves another graveyard full of children. His destiny awaits.

So I've been thinking about Xehanort and his ability to see people's hearts and memories... Did he know there was something very wrong with Bragi/Braig/Xigbar/Luxu, or does he know a way to conceal himself?

I mean, he probably could've warned people about Baldr before people started dying, but he chose not to, so maybe he just let Luxu be out of curiosity of what he intended to do?

Watching the Dark Road cutscenes made me realize that young "running away is the best option, tardy fleetfoot Eraqus" would be absolutely best friends with "Run, run away!" Demyx.

And that's a wild thought.

Well O-Kay I will die on the hill that Dark Road (offline version) was honestly a good game. It's grindy, sure. It's repetitive, yeah. It takes a while to get stuff done, well okay.

But so do most Kingdom Hearts games.

You can debate me all you want I stand by that fact

I really appreciated the background Dark Road gave to Eraqus, because as we all know from BBS, his view of darkness was so prejudiced which made him do some really heinous stuff to his students, and while you can kind of glean how his mindset was formed, I don't think anyone expected the cavalcade of tragedy that occurred. While it doesn't justify his actions, Eraqus becomes more human and a character you can feel sympathy for.

Dark Road confirmed that his prejudice towards Darkness was formed by the way he was raised (borderline genetic according to him /hj), but it's notable that throughout the story he shows doubts and hesitations towards that belief. In the scene with the lamp and learning what's at stake, Eraqus admits that he isn't so sure about everything, and later on, when it was up to Xehanort to deal with Baldr, Eraqus pleads and says that there's gotta be a way to drive it out of him without having to kill him.

i think that was a core moment for Eraqus at this point. Xehanort ends up killing Baldr, ending the massacre, but possibly subconciously implanting this idea that there was no other way. It doesn't help that Xehanort's progression into using darkness for nefarious purposes. No freaking wonder he's the way he is by the time BBS rolls up.

It's also interesting that Eraqus, as an avoidant-type character, is basically a confirmed trait. You can see how he often doesn't talk about his feelings too honestly (near the end of DR where he still acts cheery even when called out by Xehanort for crying alone in his room), hence it making in-line with him that he didn't say jack about anything Xehanort did.

Eraqus went from a cheerful, impulsive, but well-meaning boy to a serious, well-meaning but jaded to the point of tragedy old man, and I'm glad Dark Road told that story.
