Names Known of the Knights Confirmed!
TheWertle is currently translating an interview found in the Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ Ultimania:
The full translation will come soon, but it has been confirmed that the names of the three Knights in the secret ending are related to elements just like Sora, Kairi, and Riku are, and that two of the knights are indeed Aqua and Ven. Update: We now know the name of the Enigmatic Soldier is Terra thanks to another interview with Nomura! Click the images to enlarge them:
Nomura has also hinted that Ven and Roxas may be related in some way!
Kairi (similar to Umi) means Sea - Aqua means Water
![]()
Riku means Land - Terra means Earth
![]()
This is the Enigmatic Soldier for those who don’t know already.

Sorry, Shakespeare, I didn’t know they were talking about Saix, I thought they were guessing the name for the Enigmatic Soldier.

You know, I was viewing a cutscene from Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix. The scene where Xigbar has a very interesting talk with Zexion. I think Xigbar knew alot more than he was letting on. He was talking about The Room of Sleep. I take it it’s the place in Radiant Garden in that Underground Laboratory. So, all those doors contained further experimentaion on The Heartless and The Darkness in people’s hearts. And the door at the end of the pathway is The Room of Sleep. Xigbar said that Xemnas was supposed to be the only one in The Room of Sleep, yet he always heard Xemnas talking to someone. And, it’s ironic how we saw the remains of Aqua’s armor, and her Keyblade there. He went on about how long ago it was when many Keyblade Weilders fought many battles. With that, Xigbar said something that really caught my attention, “With The Room of Sleep, comes The Room of Awakening.” “That must be where, the other, “friend” is. That was why Xemnas created Castle Oblivion. It teetered on the Brink of Light & Darkness:Twilight. Since Ven looks exactly like Roxas, The Room of Awakening must be where Ven was. That explains why Vexen was so frantic to find Xemnas at the beginning of the scene. Perhaps Ven awoke from his slumber. So, Aqua is in The Room of Sleep, and Ven was in The Room of Awakening. So, then if the E.S. isn’t Xehanort, who could he be? Maybe, there’s more than one form of him out there. The E.S. that fought Sora, the E.S. in the photo above, the relation to Riku, there must be another Xehanort. An Evil Form, and his good form. In the Ansem Reports, he said that, “The Keyblade is said to hold phenomenal power”. “One Legend says it’s weilder saved, while another said he wrought ruin, and chaos upon it”. How did he know this? “I must know what this Keyblade is.” “A key opens doors” If he knew The Keyblade Legend, why did he have to know what it was all about? It might sound strange, but when Xehanort’s eyes turned yellow, Xehanort split from his original self, and left behind somebody else. There is another Xehanort. That has to be the logical explanation. The E.S. looking like Xehanort, the man in the SAME armor expressing hatred for Xehanort. It’s all gotta make sense.

I think E.S is sora because he has the same color hair , eyes, and skin color. And mybe he change eye color because he is change into a form ,he got older , and got a new keyblade.Mybe the new keyblade name is the knignt of hearts.

Im Kai my name as known as Ven Now =]
on 14 May 2007 at 1:52 am 106. Ace of Diamonds
So, I guess I was right. Xehanort= No Heart & Another. Another. If you read my previous posts, I mentioned Xehnaort maybe splitting into 2 beings. One with No Heart, and the Other. Xehnaort probably stole the heart from his other form to live functionally. The “other” Xehnaort seeks revenge.

u fight E.S but is only a memory
on 14 May 2007 at 3:35 am 108. Shakespeare
Ace - They were saying that Saïx’s Somebody was the E.S…so that’s why I brought him up. XDD
Also, remember that Xigbar is Number II in the Organization; he was one of Ansem the Wise’s apprentices. He definitely knows more than he lets on. Ansem did. Yen Sid probably does, too. (Granted, Zexion’s Somebody was an apprentice, too, but he was the youngest of the apprentices. Xigbar’s Somebody had more time to learn all the inner workings and such. Also, Braig could have been working on that project while Ienzo was off doing something completely unrelated. Plus, Xigbar’s the type who would withhold information just to watch people squirm.)
…I’m not sure how to address your question of ‘I the E.S. isn’t Xehanort, then who is he?’ since he’s a new character that we’ve never met. We don’t know…but his name will be a Latin tie to ‘earth’. And I don’t think there’s more than one of him; in KH1’s Final Mix, the was the Enigmatic Man who wore an Organization cloak. The Enigmatic Man was Xemnas, and there’s not more of HIM running around. (Also, the Organization has a uniform. The Chasers do not; each of their suits of armor is distinct.)
He knows the legend of the Keyblade because Mickey told him, remember? Gimme a minute, and I’ll have the quote for you…* (Note: Found it: Ansem Report 9. It’s at the end for your viewing pleasure.) And he probably looks similar because he’s drawn in a more mature character’s style. Ven and Aqua are younger, and thus looks similar to the younger cast (namely Kairi and Roxas). The E.S. is an older character, so he will share similarities in design to older characters (sharp features, narrower/more angled eyes, etc.)
Bernaporto - I’m not saying that Kairi ISN’T a Keyblade wielder. I’m postulating based on the assumption that she IS (and that Xehanort is, as well).
I didn’t say just his heart; ALL of Ansem the Wise was caught in that explosion, and ALL of him was gone afterward.
I’m pretty sure that Riku wasn’t a Heartless there; he accepted MORE of the Darkness, and a Heartless sort of took up residence inside him (just like Kairi’s heart was inside of Sora, Ansem was inside of Riku), but he didn’t become a Heartless himself. That would kind of be a big plot point to leave out.
(* - Kingdom Hearts 1, Ansem Report #9:
“Simply astonishing! Today I had a guest from another world. He is a king [...]
[...] But one story in particular caught my interest: that of a key called the “Keyblade.” The Keyblade is said to hold phenomenal power.
One legend says its wielder saved the world, while another says that he wrought chaos and ruin upon it. [...]“)

I wonder what happened to sora?
on 14 May 2007 at 8:06 pm 110. kdh
who’s terra
on 15 May 2007 at 2:17 am 111. Shakespeare
kdh– Terra is the E.S. His name is confirmed.
on 15 May 2007 at 2:18 am 112. bernaporto
my comments aren’t coming through.
on 15 May 2007 at 2:20 am 113. bernaporto
Shakespear- About Kairy I was just trying to clear that point up.
on 15 May 2007 at 2:20 am 114. bernaporto
And though I understand that All of Ansem was caught in the explosion the machine was only supposed to make hearths into data. But its just an idea.
on 15 May 2007 at 2:21 am 115. bernaporto
I still believe that Riku is an heartless. How else would he end up in Kingdom Hearts.
on 15 May 2007 at 2:21 am 116. bernaporto
Sorry about the split comments but i can’t make a comlpex comment for some reason.
on 15 May 2007 at 2:22 am 117. bernaporto
I also believe that King Mickey turned Riku to normal just like Kairy turned Sora to normal.
on 15 May 2007 at 4:09 am 118. hurricaneivan
actually, i look up the latin word for earth, and i came across terra and gaiya or something and i was like “TAHTS IT, ITS TERRA!!!” haha, but that dudes like xehanort. its gotta be
on 15 May 2007 at 2:07 pm 119. Shakespeare
Well, the machine DID explode…working machines don’t usually explode when they’re working properly. lol
And Mickey was also inside Kingdom Hearts, and he’s no Heartless.
on 15 May 2007 at 4:18 pm 120. Knight
in one of he clips in Kingdom hearts 2 Final mix, it shows that a nobody is old friends with Ven and in the interview it said that it is in the keyblade knights are in the past so did it said in the game
on 15 May 2007 at 9:10 pm 121. bernaporto
mickey was in the realm of light because he was looking for the leader of the organization.
He explains that in Kingdom Hearts 2. It’s a scene in holloohw bastion right after you first visit to space paranoids(tron’s world).
on 15 May 2007 at 9:11 pm 122. bernaporto
sorry realm of darkness or Kingdom Hearts
on 15 May 2007 at 9:28 pm 123. bernaporto
if you look at nomura’s last interview she says that the king can wield keyblades from both realms. Is this supposed to mean that Mickey has a dark side? Probably not.
Also, Nomura also states that there can be as many keyblade wielders as there arepeople with qualified hearts. I’d say that Xehanort’s heart is pretty strong as he was the only person except sora and riku to have control over his heartless.
This supports that Xehanort is a keyblade wielder. And for anyone who thinks he died if anyone remember that his nobody was destroyed after his heartless and they were there fore able to join normaly and bring Xehanort back to life has either a somebody or a Souless/Endless.
on 15 May 2007 at 10:01 pm 124. bernaporto
please ckicl my name. This is not the real cover but it does look nice.
on 15 May 2007 at 10:30 pm 125. bernaporto
i meant click.
on 15 May 2007 at 10:31 pm 126. bernaporto
nice right???
on 16 May 2007 at 1:53 am 127. Shakespeare
I just brought up Mickey to say that it’s not only Heartless inside Kingdom Hearts.
Everything has darkness and light, even Mickey. That’s what makes the Seven Princesses so remarkable; they have absolutely no darkness in their hearts.
And Xehanort is most likely back as a Somebody; Nomura hasn’t indicated that anything odd happens when the heart and body recombine.
on 16 May 2007 at 2:15 am 128. bernaporto
don’t you think it’sweird that after your somebody has been killed and both the nobody and the heartless die you just come back to life?
on 16 May 2007 at 2:15 am 129. bernaporto
Your probably right though.
on 16 May 2007 at 5:19 am 130. Shakespeare
It is weird, but it’s straight from Nomura’s mouth, so I’m gonna say it’s pretty official.
on 16 May 2007 at 11:23 pm 131. bernaporto
i know.
on 17 May 2007 at 2:05 am 132. Shakespeare
Yeah, well, it was straight from Nomura’s mouth that everyone in the secret trailer was new, and people still said that Ven was Roxas. *shrug*
on 17 May 2007 at 2:19 am 133. bernaporto
Some people just can’t take that thought out their head. I don’t even think it owuld make that good a plot if ti was roxas.
on 17 May 2007 at 3:12 am 134. bernaporto
would
on 17 May 2007 at 1:34 pm 135. Shakespeare
Yeah…I suppose that’s why we have the realm of Fan Fiction, ne? So they can attempt to explore those ideas while the rest of us sit back and say ‘Wow…I’m kind of glad that was just a fanfic.’
on 17 May 2007 at 8:51 pm 136. bernaporto
lol yeah
on 18 May 2007 at 12:28 am 137. zexionforever
