Master Eraqus smiled as he watched all three of his pupils train together. Ventus leaped and landed onto Terra’s waiting hands, and was launched high into the air, where he struck his Keyblade into the sphere of water that Aqua was concentrating on; the combined effect of all this was to create a hail of water particles that evenly distributed itself across all the flowers of the garden. Yes, there were more efficient ways to go about watering the flowers, but Eraqus could hardly blame them for trying to find a more interesting way of going about it.
After all, he and Xehanort used to have the same sort of relationship, each of them exploring and discovering new aspects to their Keyblades and their attendant powers in even the most mundane activities. There was still that part of his mind that spoke out against allowing Xehanort and the apprentice that he’d brought with him to stay in The Land of Departure, but he always silenced it; after all, even he, who was so vigilant in his service to the Light, could not claim to be perfect, without flaw. Who was he to say that Xehanort’s desire for redemption, for forgiveness, was not genuine?
Eraqus felt at the scars that Xehanort had inflicted on him on that day, years ago, and tried to compare the two Xehanort’s in his heart, and felt confident that Xehanort’s change of heart was real.
