Birth by Sleep King Triton and the keyblade

I'm linking this to a thread made in 2007:
http://www.kh-vids.net/showthread.php?37866-King-Triton
Much like on this thread I wanna know how he knows about the keyblade. I thought that up to this time the mystory would be exsplained in BBS because it is based in the past. But nothing is exsplained.... Why is that?

 

Maybe Xehanort screwed his world up...

 

then why wasn't it exsplained in BBS?

 

Quoting from the other thread...

Terra, Aqua, and Ven were not the first keyblade wielders in history. It's very possible that there were OTHER keyblade wielders that we never will know about that have traveled to various worlds. Or who knows, perhaps Mickey has been there before. Triton and Mickey are both Disney Kings, after all. Maybe Mickey came to warn Triton about the heartless, and I'm sure Triton asked some questions about the keyblade. I don't know. Just a theory. :P

 

Thats a plusable theory but I would of thought if he met micky he wouldn't hate the keyblade so much like he says: "The keyblade brings chaos."
It seems he is speaking from exsperiance maybe a keybearer of darkness invaded his world and brought Chaos with him hence why I though Vanitus.....

 

Yes, so that's why I said Xehanort did it, he travelled the world for a long time before meeting Ventus. And he said he explored different worlds. Nobody ever said what he did within those years. And It's not mickey, becuase he would never hurt someone...

 

That makes sence... But I still think they should of mentioned it in BBS otherwise it just remains 'UNEXSPLAINED'

 

But it doesn't have to be Xehanort. It could have been pretty much anybody. Just look at the Keyblade Graveyard, there has been countless wielders.
It might even have been Mickey, but instead of causing the chaos himself, he simply told Triton about things that Xehanort and Vanitas did.

 

The only way to answer that is to add in additional questions. Why does he know about the keyblade? Because X showed up. What did X do there? X did w/e. What led X to go there and do w/e? Because X had an encounter with character Y in another world. What world? What happened? etc.

The World of Kingdom Hearts is just as endless as our own. You can't expect Nomura to design a plotline that goes endlessly into the past. Or the future for that matter. It was a nice question when we believed keyblades to be far more rare than we do today. But now that we have enough information that a previous encounter is very plausible, and I would even say likely, we don't necessarly need details. If we do get more details on the subject, then kudos. If not I don't think that it is something that is needed to hold the plot together. There will always be things that we don't know.

 

It's odd. There was nothing in BBS about preserving world order at all. It was such an important plot point in KH1, but it was just lost in every other game.

 

I always wondered why he knew so much about it. And I am not sure but he probably did encounter a keyblade bearer before Sora. I just always thought maybe he was a keyblade bearer himself, but then I thought maybe not. I'm confusing myself as it is.

 

It is confusing but in a way he could be... his triton DOES have the ability to reveal the keyhole but then again why didn't he seal it himself?

 

Maybe he heard about it all from Mickey and thought every keybearer was bad... Mickey is nice enough to let everybody know about it...

 

But if mickey was the one to tell him about it why did he think they were bad?

 

He didn't have a Keyblade.

 

but it WAS a possibility

 

Barely. I mean having him be a keyblade bearer has about the same odds as me saying that I hate all Christians while going to church myself. At the very least he would have been open to a keyblade bearer being good, since he would have proved himself that they could be. If you get into the various things that could be possibilites you'll end up with one hell of a complicated game.

The trident revealing the keyhole is irrelevant to me. Do we ever see a keyblade reveal a keyhole? (honest question. I have been known to miss things like that) The only time I can think of is HB where the reveal was done by crafting the keyblade of hearts which I think we can all agree is a bit of a special case. And outside of the trident we have objects that I think most of us would agree are not keyblades; a bell, a stone block, a doorknob, butterflies, Genie, the moon, a clock. It all seems pretty random what can hide/reveal a keyhole.

 

It's true they wern't the keyblade grave yard explains there were many before them.

 

Enough for a war perhaps? Imagine that. In fact BBS seems to imply that there not only have been a lot of keyblade wielders, but that there still are. MX & Vanitus were trying to start a Keyblade War again. If it is really just the six of them then that seems rather pointless.

 

Interesting... What I got out of BBS was that there were a lot of Keybladers back at the time of the war. However, they managed to nearly wipe themselves out trying to create the X-Blade, unable to produce the exact balance of pure light against pure darkness, and there's been a huge shortage of them ever since. At least, that's what it seemed when I put together the words and the visual of the field of blades. Once BBS finished, Mickey was the only person around who wielded a Keyblade, and not even actively. After about eight or nine years of that, it then becomes kinda understandable that it turned from 'the Keyblades' into 'the Keyblade'.

When Xehanort and Vanitas were going on about their own Keyblade War, however, I reckoned they meant 'a clash between Keyblades that can cause a great negative effect on the worlds' rather than battles between huge groups of people. Even if it was just two people fighting, that would be enough to create the X-Blade and give the power of Kingdom Hearts to whatever victor came to claim the spoils.
