[after having spent so much time in the dark realm, it's strange for aqua to once again be part of the world of light. years and years had passed while she wandered seemingly forever; she'd almost forgoten what it was like to be touched by the sun's rays. yet here she is, standing under the sky she'd left behind with her two best friends.
she'd always known that boy, sora, would be the key.
she never did think that she'd be using her master status as it was meant when eraqus had conferred it upon her, though—that is, training new keyblade wielders, new forces in the battle against xehanort. it'd only been recently that she'd been introduced to the heartless, so the nobodies are even more of an unknown variable to her. but she'd been told that, despite their birth from nothingness, between the realms of both light and dark, these two—roxas and naminé—were different.
roxas, admittedly, looked too much like ven for aqua to handle; he was still housed within castle oblivion, sleeping, while terra still had yet to be rescued like aqua was. it was with a heavy heart that she had to pass on mentoring sora's nobody, instead entrusting his training to the new master, riku. she could handle the girl, though.
while aqua was surprised to learn that naminé's other, kairi—the young girl aqua remembered meeting in radiant garden all those years ago—inherited the keyblade thanks to aqua herself, it ultimately made sense in the end; it seemed like the second coming of her, terra, and ven, in a way. while they still didn't know if naminé had inherited kairi's keyblade, like roxas had with sora, if the young nobody was willing to learn, who was aqua to refuse?
it's in the room that her keyblade armor has resided for the last ten years that aqua asks naminé to meet her; a little morbid, maybe, but it reminds her of what she's fighting for. when the nobody enters, aqua turns her eyes away from the armor and looks up, welcoming her in.]
