Xehanort again

[Justa'notherdude]

So when a heartless is created tha heart gives it its own shape kinda body thing. Xehanort's Heartless kept the shape of Xehanort so why did he need Riku's body after all he was a heartless?

 

[Tenyas]

Well, supposedly, by trying to keep his shape, he lost his form. By having lost his form, he was nothing more then concentrated darkness. He went to Riku, who was getting swallowed up already, and possessed him. At one point, he ejected Riku's heart from the body and took it as his own. The body itself was destroyed when Sora fought and killed him... I think that's how things happened.

^The body was never destroyed.

Xehanort's heart was basically just a lump of darkness in a cloak, which is what Sora saw in the secret place. He needed Riku's body to gain a humanoid/more powerful form, kicked Riku's heart out of his body.

And if he was a Heartless, he wouldn't need Riku's body. He's definitely a heart.

Oh that's just what he wants us to think. He'll be back, sure enough in some form or other.
