Part 2: Day 7: Number XIV

Video: Why the Sun Sets Red


We're skipping right to day 255? Okay then.



As I said, Twilight Station Tower. Be prepared to see this place a lot.

You're early.



No, you're just late.





Be prepared to see lots of ice cream too. Sea-salt flavor only, though. BBS ice cream hasn't been invented (by Nomura) yet.

What's that about?
It's been that many days since I first joined the Organization. Man, time flies.
So, you got the number memorized, do ya?

New Music: Roxas
Yeah. Have to hang onto something, right? It's not like I have memories from before the Organization. Don't you remember? I acted like a zombie.
Right, that first week you could barely form a sentence.

Oh, thanks!
*laughs*
Hey, Roxas. Bet you don't know why the sun sets red.



That doesn't look red to me. It's more orange than red. Try Daybreak Town. I heard it's redder there.

And out of all those colors, red is the one that travels the farthest.
Like I asked! Know-it-all.

*time passes*

The closest thing for me is when I was just seven days old, and I met her.



Starting at Day 7 is much more understandable. We can't just skip to Day 255 out of 358, after all!

New Music: Sacred Moon






Yes, all we just saw was Roxas sleeping then waking up. I guess they want to show us his room? That we never explored in KH2?



After that we got a tutorial. Thanks, game. I wouldn't know to use the D-pad to move and A button to talk, like most other DS games.



This is how the gameplay is going to be. The top screen is where most of the action is going to be, with Attack option being replaced with Talk for now. The bottom screen contains the map, area name, and the mission progress. Obviously we don't have a mission yet so that one's empty.





While we're on The Grey Area (that we never explored in KH2) we can talk to people. This is how we're going to get most of the dialogue from the ones who died in Castle Oblivion.



There's usually one person we need to talk to progress the game. In this case it's Axel.

Heya, Roxas.
......
Something I can help you with there, chatterbox?
......



They really weren't kidding when saying Roxas was like a zombie.

Ah, I remember now. We were supposed to convene in the Round Room today. Blegh, meetings...
Round...Room...?
Yup. Apparently the boss man's got some big news.



Okay.

Alrighty then. Follow me.

Let's go to the Round Room. Which we never explored in KH2. TWNTW in KH2 is kind of a giant corridor with just 2 brances (Luxord and Saix's arenas).

Video: Meet Xion


Today is a momentous day.



As you can see, none of them have their hood up this time. Organization rules on the hood during meetings are inconsistent.







Some nice shots of the other members.



Number XIV.





Why did Roxas have someone accompany him while Xion doesn't? It's not fair!



Love how relaxed Xemnas looked in this shot.

I couldn't have told you who the people in black coats were, or what they wanted with me.
