World in Kingdom Heart II





Kingdom Hearts II

DiZ, unknown to Organization XIII, began using the Old Mansion as a headquarters for his revenge. Along with Naminé and Riku, he set up computer systems and Memory Pods in the basement levels of the manor, and monitored Sora's progression as he regained his memories while Roxas lived in a virtual simulation of Twilight Town.
The restoration process finishes exactly one year from the day that Sora created Roxas, and Sora, Donald, and Goofy awaken from their sleep with their memories restored up to the point that they entered Castle Oblivion, but do not know how long they were asleep, or how they got to Twilight Town. Sora says that the surroundings are rather familiar, and the group wonders if they had ever been there before.
They wander the streets, looking for answers, and ultimately meet Hayner, Pence, Olette, Seifer, and the other residents of Twilight Town. In the Sandlot, the Struggle tournament organizer will explain how they end up doing Struggle battles. In the Market Street, the tram has stopped running and the Moogle shop is closed, sporting a sign that says "Synthesis Workshop - coming soon!"
Eventually, they encounter King Mickey, when he saves them from a group of attacking Nobodies and tells them to board a magic train to the Mysterious Tower. Once there, the tower's master, Yen Sid, gives Sora new clothes, new abilities, and explains the situation with Organization XIII. He also returns the Gummi Ship to them, and puts them on their new quest.
Sora and the party return to Twilight Town twice during their adventures. The first time, he learns that Kairi fled Destiny Islands in search of him and was kidnapped by Axel. As he leaves town, he is stopped by Saïx, who taunts him into defeating more Heartless for Organization XIII.
The second time, the party, along with Mickey, Hayner, Pence, and Olette, go to the manor where Sora and the party awakened, and find the digital Twilight Town, which leads them to The World That Never Was.

Pence.png
Pence (ピンツ Pintsu?)
See Gallery

Rai.jpg

Rai tends to get carried away -- and truth be told, he feels like he can't hold a candle to Fuu.
Fuu.png
Fuu (フウ Fuu?)

Final Fantasy VIII
One of Seifer's followers. She never says a word more than she has to, leading to some very unusual "one-worders".

Vivi KHII.jpg
Vivi (ビビ Bibi?)
See Gallery

Elmina (エルミナ Erumina?)
See Gallery
Final Fantasy III
A strange race that pops up in even stranger places to open shop.
Moogles hate having their pompoms ruffled (don't we all?), but the pompom rufflers just keep coming in droves. Maybe that's why the moogles use holograms to run their shops now, while they kick back at home.

Itani's Description: If you've played CoM you would have had a small preview of Twilight Town. This world will probably have the same role as Traverse Town. Where you go buy items and weapons. The Disney site is also updating it's Twilight section. Nomura recently said that there's no point of making Twilight Town big but not featuring anything. So he has added sidequests through out Twilight Town. One is skateboarding with BHK.
