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.

so i dont get it im confused kh3 is about xehenorts past and you think that sors and co. is in the past too and that we are gonna learn about everything in the new serires right? but one question if theres a new series that ansers questions then there are gonna be some other secrret to keep you gessing right they cant just tell you everything like that theres gonna be more secrets and if thats the case tthen kh and the new series is gonna go on forever but that wont be bad but if it does then ill be more confused xplain this please im soo mixd up its not even funny i think i need an xplanation from the makers of the game cause this is just too confusing! and also if riku is supposed too get the keyblade then would he still have gone in the darkness and known more than sora or would he have been clueless like sora and sora would turn bad and go in the darkness and know more than riku? confusing much!!!!!!

Wait, Kairi isnt younger than Sora, they’re both the same age.
on 05 Jul 2007 at 3:49 pm 289. Heero Yuy
As well, maybe Terra is searching for Aqua and Ven, like how Sora was searching for Riku and Kairi.
on 05 Jul 2007 at 3:44 pm 288. Heero Yuy
Actually, you said that Sora was the youngest Keyblade wielder, which is actually false, as Kairi wielded a Keyblade at one point, and she’s younger then Sora. ^^ Just thought I’d point that out.

the fact that thier names are related so could indicate that these knights were heros parallel to sora and co. think about it, all the names are latin as opposed to japanese. parallelism

Enigmatic Soldier:
The Enigmatic Soldier (unofficial acronym: ‘ES’) is a character seen in the secret movie as the oldest of the three soldiers. He has dark brown hair with styling reminiscent of Xehanort, and blue eyes that appear to also glow with a goldish-amber hue. He begins the battle with the Unknown Elder Mage (unofficial acronym: UEM), and incidentially suffers the least damage from the encounter. Working together with the Aqua and Ven, he goes up against the UEM, and toward the end of the epic battle, removes his helmet to gaze up at Kingdom Hearts above him.
The Enigmatic Soldier was first seen in “Sunset Horizons”, and was the first new character seen. He was standing triumphantly on top of a monstrous carcass resembling a Nobody, and picked up Sora’s Kingdom Key from the dust.
F.S.
Female Soldier:
The FS is another new character, appearing to be a bit younger than the ES but older than BHS. She has vivid blue hair and blue eyes, and appears to be concentrated in magic more than physical attack skills. She casts Reflega quite a few times during the course of the battle against the UEM and DS. She appears to have a close connection to the BHS, as seen when she and him lock eyes as he battles with the UEM and her reaction when his frozen body is flung to the ground beside her.
The female soldier was also seen in Sunset Horizons–she picked up Mickey’s Keyblade.
B.H.S.
Blonde Haired Soldier:
The B.H.S. appears to be the youngest of the three warriors, but this doesn’t keep him from showing his battle prowess. He bears a striking resemblance to the character Roxas, with identical hairstyle, facial features, and the same blonde hair and blue eyes, but this resemblance is still unexplained. It is unknown as to whether he IS Roxas or some form of him. The Blonde Haired Soldier concentrates on physical attacks most often, and during his faceoff with the UEM, he suffers the wrath of a Blizzaga spell throughout his entire body. Just as the battle turns in the UEM’s favor, he locks eyes with the female soldier far below, who watches the battle in horror. After part of his helmet shatters and the UEM lifts him clear off the ground by the neck, he is frozen solid and tossed off the cliff, his Keyblade and parts of his armor shattering as he falls. The female soldier rushes to his side and lifts his frost-ridden body into her lap, shouting at him to see if he is all right, but all he can do is move his eyes to show her that he is still alive.
The B.H.S. was also seen in Sunset Horizons–he picked up Riku’s Keyblade, Way to Dawn.
U.E.M.
Unknown Elder Mage:
The Unknown Elder Mage (unofficial acronym: UEM) is the mysterious enemy who approached the three knights in Sunset Horizons. A pivotal aspect about his character is the parallel to Xehanort’s Heartless–he appears to be wearing the exact clothing that KH1’s main villain wore. He appears to be skilled in both Keyblade wielding and magical attacks. He can also manipulate the environment, as seen when he creates cliffs beneath his feet. He can also manipulate the massive number of Keyblades littering the battlefield to fly in formation. The UEM, despite his appearance, has great physical strength and easily overtakes all three of the soldiers in some fashion. His most critical hit came when he froze Ven from head-to-toe and tossed him off of a cliff to Aqua below.
UEM also creates a dark ball of energy and launches it into the sky, summoning what appears to be Kingdom Hearts from the clouds.
D.S.
Dark Soldier:
The Dark Soldier bears resemblance to both a Nobody and Riku’s Dark Form. It spawns directly from the UEM, appearing as a mirror-image of him and then solidifying into this odd dark-being hybrid. It appears to specialize in magic spells, and mostly stays by the UEM’s side to assist in the battle. It has the ability to “ride” the waves of Keyblades that the UEM manipulates.
The Dark Soldier was not seen in Sunset Horizons, as he did not appear until the UEM was in clear view.
Mickey
King Mickey:
Mickey appears from a hill, quite a ways from the battle. The mouse walks to the edge of the cliff, and watches as a heart-shapped moon appears from the sky. He is dawning a new black outfit and is wielding the Star Seeker Keyblade. His face goes serious as the trailer ends

Secret Trailer Summary
In the opening of the secret trailer, we see an unknown man in armor standing on top of an object. He seems to be standing triumphantly, holding his massive keyblade behind him. He then seems to notice something from off screen and jumps down. As he walks away, the object he was standing on blows away like it was dust. As the Enigmatic Soldier (E.S.) walks to the middle of the crossroads, the Female Soldier (F.S.) appears from another direction, along with the Blonde Haired Soldier (B.H.S.). Three keyblades lie there: Kingdom Key, Way To Dawn and Mickey’s Keyblade. The E.S. picks up the Kingdom Key. The F.S. picks up Mickey’s Keyblade. The B.H.S. picks up Way To Dawn. They all then notice a shadowed figure off in the distance.
The three knights face down the mysterious figure off in the distance. The figure becomes clearer as it drew closer to them. It is an Unknown Elder Mage (U.E.M.), who then splits himself into two beings. By doing this he creates the Dark Soldier (D.S.). The B.H.S. starts to move towards them, only to be halted by the E.S. who goes after them himself. As he dashes towards them, the U.E.M. casts a spell that lifts a large wall of earth to block his path. He then lifts himself and the D.S., up with another wall of earth. As the E.S. watches them rise up, the D.S. jumps down and casts a powerful thunder spell on him. This leaves his armor badly damaged, engulfed with small flames. The B.H.S. then runs after the D.S. into battle, with the E.S. soon following him. The U.E.M. then casts another spell, where many keyblades start to move and attack in waves. The B.H.S. continues to chase after him, while the D.S. casts blizzard spells to keep him off of his trail.
The F.S. tries to keep up with them, but then notices the wave of keyblades. The D.S. jumps on top of them and rides on the blades, casting powerful blizzard spells as the two knights try running away. The D.S. has the upper-hand when he rides on top of the wave of keyblades, which hit the B.H.S., but he quickly regains balance. When D.S. touches down, the B.H.S. tries to get a hit in but is simple knocked away. The F.S. uses this time to cast a thunder spell, but the D.S. avoids it and rides the keyblades off once again. The E.S. tries to run from the wave of keyblades that have been chasing him, but accidentally falls off a cliff in doing so. He attempts to get a grasp by stabbing his keyblade in the wall, however the wave of keyblades blows off the part of the cliff where he was on.
The F.S. notices that the E.S. is falling off of a cliff. With her distracted, another wave of keyblades strike her from the ground below her. The force lifts her up into the air and then she crashes back down to the ground. The F.S.’s helmet is obliterated from the wave and her face is revealed. The B.H.S. runs to check on her. She quickly casts reflect on the E.S. upon her harsh landing, seeing that he to is being assaulted by a wave of keyblades. She’s breathing hard, exhausted from the battle. As the wave of keyblades attack the E.S., reflect reaches him and forces the blades to go away from his body. Yet another wave of key blades assault him, he is safe though with reflect. The blades push the E.S. up to the U.E.M., then the reflect ball holding the E.S. explodes in front of him. The F.S. stays behind as the B.H.S. goes after the two threats.
The E.S. falls and lands not to far from the U.E.M. As he stumbles trying to get on his feet, he begins to run towards the U.E.M. The U.E.M. strikes back at him with his own keyblade. He also manages to knock the E.S. back and freeze his entire left arm. The B.H.S. attempts to strike the U.E.M. while he is distracted. But he just teleports behind him and grabs ahold of his head. The E.S. tries to run and help him, but is hit by another wave of keyblades and is thrown off the cliff. The U.E.M. tightens his grip, crushing the B.H.S.’s helmet. The F.S. rises up, and sees the B.H.S. in the hand of the U.E.M. The D.S. reappears and stands next to the U.E.M. A piece of the B.H.S. helmet breaks because of the tight grip, revealing his right eye. The two look at each other in horror as the B.H.S. is frozen alive.
The U.E.M. freezes his entire body and heartlessly throws him off the cliff. Pieces of his keyblade and suit break off as he falls to the ground. Before he touches ground, the F.S. runs to him. She barely manages to get to him in time. She holds him and looks into his face. His eyes move, showing that he is still alive. The U.E.M.’s keyblade then vanishes and he creates a dark ball of energy in his hand. He then launches it up into the sky. He looks on with the D.S., smiling. The sky suddenly opens up revealing a heart-shaped moon. The F.S. clutches the frozen B.H.S. as she looks on in awe at the sky. When the E.S. finds the strength to get back up from the fall, he removes his helmet to reveal his face. He sees Kingdom Hearts in the sky. As he looks towards it, the screen violently zooms in on him. His blue eyes suddenly turn hazel.
Mickey appears from a hill, quite a ways from the battle. The mouse walks to the edge of the cliff, and watches as a heart-shaped moon appears from the sky. He dons a new black outfit and is wielding the Star Seeker Keyblade. He looks on with a rather serious expression as the trailer ends.

1. Starting from all small events in both KH1 and 2 we come to a conclusion that Kingdom Heats is not all what it seams, every one has a story, nearly everyone has crossed roads with a keyblade wielder, meaning there is or has been more than one… and it is led to believe Sora received his keyblade to early in life, yet Nomura stated that Riku was the one who was meant to receive it and not Sora, So Sora is actually the youngest Keyblade User so far.
But that’s another Story
OK, we start we a letter that Sora and Co, receive from Mickey, we have no clue what it says yet, but we assume that KH is to continue on…….
1. Secret Video 1- 3 armoured Warriors appear on sunset horizon “aka the crossroads” where it is full of keyblades stuck on the floor, they walk towards 3 keyblades in specific and pick the up, these blades being soras blade, Mickey blade and Rikus blade… then on the horizon a man walks toward then.
Not even talking about all the phrases that show up on screen, we think and later we are positive that this event is on one time line.. Which we don’t know yet.
Secret Video 2- 3 armoured Warriors are in Sunset Horizons, when a bald ban and his right hand man, ”aka man in Red and black armour” cause havoc on to these 3 knights.. and nearly killing one of them, it is known now that none of them actually died on that battle, but not sure about that yet, but another source “My good friend Tazmaniandevil” thinks the “lost 2” is related to 2 of these 3 Knights. And we believe the bald guy is Xehanort, but in a past way gone.. the tittle birth by sleep is just the name of the trailer.. And is stated on the book released in Japan, therefore giving us more of a certainty that, both secret videos are 2 completely deferent time lines……
So now.. again from my friend Tazmaniandevil, believes that there will be a Kingdom hearts 3… but not yet.. the new series is in the making…
“Taz says that new series is going to be a series of side adventures. The first is probably going to be about Xehanort’s past (aka Memories of Xehanort). It going to tie in to Kingdom Hearts 3, The games in the series will probably be about the other missing adventures. Mickey’s journey in the Realm of Darkness looking for the Kingdom Key: Dark Side. Riku’s time in between Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts 2. And Roxas time with the Organization.”(Heartless said all that, and I love the idea)
Which to me seams like a sort of chain of memories to kingdom hearts 3 if you wana call it that, just to fill us in with more information about how it all started. What are the origins of the keyblade, Taz allso believes that the keyblade wars raged across all worlds that’s why all the Door were set to separate them and block the darkeness from each wold individualy. But to lock and unlock these doors, a key is needed so here we have a keyblade and keyblademaster.
1. It is near safe to say that the keyblade and kingdom hearts are 2 separate forces that work together in a mysterious way, since no matter the user.,.. it simply selects the one with a strong heart, the choice to do good or evil depends on that wielder.
The Nobodies that constitute the organisation 13 have been around for along time, and know more about the whole story, some more then others, petty they nearly all die by Sora’s hand…. Weird how Sora is meant to be the weakest wielder out of the “other” that have existed… but he kicks all theirs asses hahaha. Yet Sora only lacks one thing… he is always the one who is blissfully doing all this for one purpose only, and that is to be with his friends again.. he is the least informed character of the story, has no idea about what’s going on, except what is hpning there and now.. But I guess that is all going to change now…
From here on Tazmanianchocobo posted all this
This is to clarify some of the stuff Thim has said.
The night Sora received the keyblade it was stated by Nomura that was not suppose to receive it, but that it was suppose to be Riku’s. This is also backed in the game with Jiminy’s Journal. If you were to look under Riku in it it says that Riku is the True Keyblade master. Now this is not to say that Sora would not have recieved, but merely to say that at that time he wasn’t suppose to receive it. The reason why Sora did receive it, stated by Nomura, is because at the time Riku had already given himself over to the darkness. Now youir probably asking yourself “what does this have to do with Kingdom Hearts 3 or the new series?” Let me answer that for you. In Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+ you can battle the tallest knight Terra. Just before the battle he shares some dialog with you. “Aqua… Ven… Keyblade… who are you? I can feel it… we have met before… it was when… No… it isn’t you… It isn’t you that I have chosen… Why is it not him… Xe… ha… nort… is that you? Xeha… nort… Xehanort!”
Here you learn the name of the other two knights and that Terra chose somebody for something. Now this could possibly mean that Terra chose Riku to originally to receive the Kingdom Key. My guess is that the fact that Riku was suppose to originally receive the keyblade is going to have something to do with Kingdom Hearts 3.
It is also worthy to the Nobody Xigbar. Because from him you learn an interesting fact. Just before the Sora’s boss fight with Xigbar he says to Sora “That out of all the ones before you, you are the weakest.” Now from this dialog we learn that Xigbar has fought other Keyblade Wielders before. This to has been confirmed by Nomura. Now when using the term weakest Xigbar means that Sora is novice when using a Keyblade. We can see this when we fight Terra. But right now this is a kind of moot point. The point of this entire conversation is that we learn that A) there are other keyblade wielders and B) that Xigbar not only fought them but defeated them as well. So the question remains, who were these other keyblade wielders. Now from the secret videos we learn that there are in fact four or five other keyblade wielders. First there are the three Knights Terra, Aqua, and Ven and the Bald Guy and the Dark Knight (the reason I say four is because it is yet unknown if the Dark Knight is a separate entity or just the heartless/nobody form of the Bald Guy). Now Xigbar could be referring to one or more of these wielders. I should also note that in a scene from Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix + we see Aqua’s armor and Keyblade.
1. Now this next post has to deal with the Kingdom Hearts game that will start the new series.
Now Nomura has stated that the Kingdom Hearts game to come out will be part of a new series. In the Another reports he mentions that there are four missing adventures to the Kingdom Hearts series. Mickey’s time in the Dark Realm seeking: Kingdom Key: Dark Side, Riku’s adventures in between Chain of Memories, Roxas adventure with the Organization, and Xehanort’s Past. Now it was hinted at the next game would be about Xehanort’s past. You can come to reasonable conclusion from the Birth by Sleep video that you will probably be playing with Mickey and that this game is set in the past. Also the case of the videos comes into question here. The first video that you get at the end of Kingdom Hearts 2 shows a section of an Ansem report having to deal with the keyblade. Then shows Terra standing on the dragon that Xehanort road on. He then looks around two reveal Aqua and Ven. He jumps off the dragon and the dragon disappears and they walk to Sora’s, Riku’s, and Mickey’s keyblades and they pick them up. then they look into the distance to reveal that a fourth figure is approaching. Then the words Master of Keyblades, the Lost Two, Memory of Xehanort, Chasers, and Keyblade War. Then it says “It all began with…Birth by Sleep.” Now this shows that the Birth by Sleep video happened before the first video. I believe that the first video is in fact meant to be a preview for the Kingdom Hearts 3 game. Now the second video depicts the Knights fighting a Bald Man and a Dark Knight both who wield keyblades. I believe this is meant to be a preview for the in the new series. The first game will probably revolve around Xehanort’s past (aka Memories of Xehanort) and the origins of the keyblade. You will probably playing as Mickey in this one. This will some how tie into Kingdom Hearts 3, much like Sub - Zero and Mortal Kombat 4.
Now we were given a interesting piece text that gives a little insight in to who the Lost Two are and about who Terra is. This piece of text is “Master Xehanort’s Avenger, his name is Terra.” “Not yet awakened, he is connected to those two.” Now this is interesting because Terra expresses much hatred for Xehanort after you fight him and in the text before battle if you choose to battle him again. You can reasonably assume that Terra and Xehanort use to be allies and that Xehanort was a good guy. Now someone on here referenced Xehanort to also mean thunder in latin if you rearrange the letters in his name with out the X in it. Now I wouldn’t have used the Power Ranger to connect this, but I have come to find that there is truth in what this person said. By rearranging the letters to form the word thonare, the more common spelling of the word in tonare. Nomura has stated that Xehanort’s becomes Another and No Heart when the X is removed. The point id that we can assume that Xehanort was a good guy a one time, but for whatever reason turned his back on the light and became a bad guy. Now the connection to the Lost Two comes from the second piece of text in which it says that Terra is not awakened and that he is connected to two people. Now the only people we have seen him with are Aqua and Ven. Another interesting piece of information is that you can only fight Terra after you have beat the game. At least ever single guide I have read about the has said that. Anyways, now Aqua and Ven are not present in Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix + because, are alluded two just before the fight with Terra, and we see Aqua’s armor and keyblade in the Room of Sleep. So is safe to assume that the Lost Two are Aqua and Ven.
