[Today there is a ~~red mummy~~man dressed all in red wandering through the halls of the dressing room with a general look of confusion on his face. Must be a newcomer.

That or he's lost his way. But feel free to come and talk to him all the same.]

A fool? And who was the man who dared not venture into the realm of the heart out of fear? You refused to continue, and in the process abandoned all hopes of greater knowledge.

That place was not to be meddled with!

How do you expect to learn when you refuse to attack the issue directly? Is science not without its risks?

Some risks are too much. You of people should know that, Xehanort.

Oh, the loss of my heart was fully intentional. It was, after all, the ideal way to command the heartless, and as for the Garden... at times sacrifices must be made.

I would never have thrown my people into the darkness!

How selfless of you... Yet look at what denying such power, such knowledge has done to you. Banished to the realm of nothingness without even your own identity.

No thanks to your machinations.

Perhaps, but the fall of the garden was inevitable. Even if I hadn't acted in such a way it would have eventually fallen to darkness.

Inevitable? Hardly.

The darkness is a beginning and an end... it is the true essence of all world... of all hearts.

Listen to yourself, Xehanort! There is light in every heart!

Though that may be true, the light is feeble, weak, and destined to be snuffed out in the end.

Is that truly what you believe?

It is what I have always believed.

You've lost your senses.

Oh? And what is it that makes you believe this to be true?

Every word you've said has confirmed my suspicion.

Ah, so you cling to the light. A foolish act indeed.

No more foolish than your ravings.

[chuckles coldly at that remark.]

Though you believe them to be foolish, I believe that my current existence is proof enough of the power that lies within darkness. Others who have fallen became mindless beasts, yet not only have I retained my self awareness, but I can command them. The heartless bend to my will.

There is more to the worlds than merely the Heartless. Beings you could never control.

In their current state, perhaps not, but every heart is capable of falling to the darkness, save for those seven maidens of pure hearts.

Capable of is hardly the same as 'will'.

All it requires is adequate persuasion, which is certainly not impossible.
