“The Story of You and Your Keyblade"
The first time I met you was by the water fountain here in town. The moment you awakened, you quickly ended up in a fight, using your Keyblade. I watched over you with the Foreteller. My name is Chirithy. I’m your spirit familiar.
“Your pursuit of light made you the perfect candidate for a Keyblade wielder.”
You listened to my explanations with a curious look on your face. It’s kinda nostalgic to think back on. After that, you went to all kinds of worlds and collected lots of light with your fellow wielders. Darkness was spreading and it was up to you and the Keyblade to get rid of it and collect light, or Lux, and keep the worlds safe. For that purpose, Keyblade wielders were split up into five unions, each tasked with gathering Lux. The leaders of the various unions were the Foretellers.
Together, we went to all the various worlds, met with all sorts of people, and helped them.
But… the atmosphere in Daybreak Town was slowly changing, and it seemed Keyblade wielders were being swallowed up by darkness. Each Chirithy is linked to our own Keyblade wielder. And I knew the me that disappeared right in front of me.
Around that time, you had a dream. A dream where the five Foretellers were gathered. And the day after that, you met Ephemer, who told you:
“The worlds we visit—the worlds of fairy tales—are nothing more than projections. The light we collect there is actually this world’s light.”
You tilted your head, listening to Ephemer’s story. Of course. Even though I didn’t really know what Ephemer was talking about, I knew at least some of it seemed to be true, because I’d seen it in your dream.
“My hunch is that the Book of Prophecies held by the Foretellers is what’s creating these holograms.”
After a little more thought, you told Ephemer that you’d dreamed of the Foretellers.
“Let’s head to the place you saw in your dream.”
Once you and Ephemer had run off, the other me appeared in front of me. I said to me, “You’re not the same colour you were before.” The other me had turned darker and I had a bad feeling about it.
In the end, you two never made it to where the Foretellers had been.
“We know how to get into the tower now, so why don’t we save the rest for another day?”
“Great! We may not be in the same union, but we’re friends, right? Let’s meet tomorrow at Fountain Square. How about noon?
You and Ephemer shook hands.
That night, you sat on your bed, smiling to yourself. You told me all about Ephemer and you seemed so happy, so I was happy too.
“You made a new friend? That’s great! I hear having friends is nice, but I wouldn’t know because I don’t have any.”
As soon as I said that, you gave me a troubled look and pointed to yourself.
You nodded. I was a little embarrassed, but I’d never thought I would be able to make a friend, just being a familiar and all.
“You’re my friend…? Ehehe…”
It made me so, so happy to know that you thought of me as a friend.
The next day, I don’t know how many hours you waited at Fountain Square, but Ephemer never showed up. You looked so sad.
“A friend always keeps their promise. Maybe he had an emergency. You should give him the benefit of the doubt.”
Even so, you still looked upset.
“Don’t be sad. When you’re sad, it makes me sad, too. After all, we’re friends, right?”
I reached up and held your hand. Then you scooped me up and hugged me tight.
But the atmosphere just kept getting worse. Things kept happening all around you—and then you met Skuld, another one of Ephemer’s friends.
“No matter what union you’re in, they all have the same goal: to protect the light. But somewhere along the way, people started wanting to get better than others, to collect the most light, and their goals have changed,” Skuld said.
During your search for Ephemer, you and Skuld came to know of the plan for the world after. The Dandelions, a group that Ava had created, would ensure that Keyblader wielders still remained even after the end of the world. But you chose not to join. Of course, that’s just the kind of person you are. I knew that.
And so, the end of the world—the Keyblade War—began.
You collapsed after fighting the Foretellers. And soon, Ephemer and Skuld were before you.
Ephemer reached out a hand for you.
Your world was enveloped in light and you drifted to sleep.
When you awoke, what kind of world would it be? That was for you to decide.
