Only moments earlier had Terra discovered a mysterious portal, unsure of where it would take him. The last thing he remembered was defeating Master Xehanort in battle, followed by a blinding light, and before he knew it, he waken up to find himself in the Keyblade Graveyard alone, Master Xehanort nowhere to be found, only a bright portal. Noticing that there was no one else here, including Aqua and Ven, he figured his best choice was to investigate and see where this portal was going to lead him. Travelling to different worlds was nothing new to him, making walking through a strange portal easier.
After travelling through the portal, he found himself in a rather large yard. The grass looked like it hadn’t been cut for quite some time, broken pillars scattered across the lawn and uneven hedges surrounding the premises. Before him was a rather large home which he could only assume was a mansion. It looked quite old, and by the looks of the yard alone, perhaps it was some kind of abandoned mansion. With curiosity getting the best of him, he decided to carefully open the large doors and explore inside the old mansion.
As with most old buildings, the doors creaked open fairly loudly before Terra stepped foot inside, his footsteps echoing as he walked across the floor. As he thought, the mansion inside too looked as though no one had lived there for several years. Several smashed objects were scattered across the room, crooked paintings on the wall along with many that had fallen. Plenty of chipped paint was visible on the walls, and feelings of uneasiness stirred in the pit of his stomach something felt...wrong.
Not a moment too soon, he heard footsteps in the room directly ahead of him, nearly giving Terra a heart attack. It looks like he wasn’t the only person here. Could this whole mess have been Xehanort’s doing? He had to know, and he had to know now. Seconds later, his Keyblade materialized in his hand, before taking slow footsteps towards the room, his breathing becoming increasingly heavier.
“Who’s there!? Xehanort!?” he yelled, before slamming the door open and entering the room, ready for a fight. However, he had not expected to see the person standing before him. Aqua? Just what was she doing here? Maybe she had found this portal before he did. He then quickly withdrew his Keyblade and became at ease, his uneasiness now turning into relief.
“Aqua...? Didn’t think I’d see you here. There was this portal at the Keyblade Graveyard, and Xehanort was nowhere to be found, so I followed the portal here and... What’s going on? What is this place?”
