Kingdom Hearts; Secret of them eyes
Disclaimer: I know people have talked about this before after realizing this thing but I thought itâd be useful to put it all together in one post and get more people realizing it and thinking about this stuff! So hopefully we can figure out what Nomura is doing. :P
Okay, so me and my friend were watching the new Kingdom Hearts trailer and we saw the Fortellers and she was explaining them to me, and the story behind it. Like about the book of prophecies and that there were 6 apprentices but one didnât get one and we donât know what happened to him (probably was evil). Anyways, Xehanortâs keyblade fits in with the keyblades of the Foretellers, so we assume it has to do something with that sixth apprentice. His keyblade had that very bright blue eye, on the keyblade itself and the keychain, while the other Foretellers only have it in the keychain.
Sooo... somehow I started talking about the fact that it might be the sign of someone turning evil? Because Xehanort is evil and had an eye on his keyblade, but if you look at the keyblade of people like Riku, Terra (Chaos Ripper),
young Xehanort (time keyblade)Â
you can see a blue eye on them too. And they turned evil, so it must be a sign.. right? Or at least it may have something to do with Xehanort. Like being possessed by / aligned with him. Although Riku broke the âchain of evilâ, he didnât conquer Xehanort until Dream Drop Distance where he proved to himself he is worthy of the keyblade and defeated Ansem in his heart hopefully for good. (I do wonder if he still has the eye on his keyblade in the new Kingdom Hearts because it or he himself isnât shown in the trailer.)Â
His Soul Eater blade also had the eye and Ansemâs final form had two of that blade attached to each other, creating a weapon with 2 eyes.Â
If you look closely you can see that the Xehanorts have 2 blue eyes on their weapons. Ansem SoD did there, Xehanortâs keyblade does, Vanitas does, Terraâs Chaos Ripper does? Only young Xehanort had only one eye on his weapon (the one about time).Â
We donât know if itâs intentional and if it means anything but knowing Kingdom Hearts...Â
We also donât know why the Foretellers have the eye in their keychain... Only people who turned evil/Xehanort seem to have it besides them.Â
In the scene where young Xehanort and young Eraqus are playing chess in the Kingdom Hearts 3 trailer we also see Xehanortâs keyblade hanging on the wall... Whatever itâs doing there. Maybe it belonged to their master? It already has the eyes there, although they are not as bright blue as in the other games.
Lastly there is the Keyblade from Dream Drop Distance which both Sora and Riku can get, but Sora also nearly turned Xehanort in that game, so it still works. This is the End of Pain keyblade, with 2 eyes. It also has an animal head in it kind of like the Foretellers, so we wonder whatâs up with that one...
Beyond that, no one else has it in their Keyblade. Only the Foretellers and the ones who get influenced by Xehanort .
If anyone else knows a Keyblade/weapon which has the eye, or has any idea what it means, weâd love to hear it! :DÂ
