Part 2-The Origin(?) of Life

Now, we do not know for sure whether or not "Kingdom Hearts" is sentient. Though it appears that it is indeed the case, it being sentient would result in some other problems that appear later on in the history. However, we do know how Kingdom Hearts brought forth life to the world. It took a part of itself, and created life through its image. The trio of life.. You may have heard it.. It goes by many names.. Body, mind, spirit.. Body, essence, SOUL.. But, in fact, this is actually the same as the trio from earlier:Matter, essence, and spirit! We Dimensional Travelers refer to them as body, soul, and heart. Now, there were seven created beings directly from Kingdom Hearts, but they were able to harness the power of "Light" and form more, to spread life across the world.

Part 3-The Trio of Life and Death

Now, the nature of life is yet again something that has been discussed over several times. But, the answer to this question is simpler than it may seem. The body is just that-The physical being-Your vessel. The soul is, in essense, the will to live. The very culimation of your being. The heart.. That's a little more complicated. The best way to think of it is-It's what brings you emotions. It's, in a sense, "you" as well, as it's your defining traits. It's your "feelings" in a sense. When a vessel becomes useless, "dead", the soul leaves the body, creating what many know as ghosts. If a heart is tainted by darkness, a "Heartless" forms-These too have been considered as ghosts, despite the clear contrast between the two-As one simply takes the personality of the person before them, while "Heartless" act on impulses-This is due to the fact that Hearless contain only the darkness-The light having either been gone, or restored to "Kingdom Hearts".

Sometimes, if your will to live is strong enough.. Your.. "determination"... You will survive, even without a heart. However, with no heart, you feel nothing, as the heart is where feelings resonate from. This is why it has incorrectly been labeled as the "SOUL" in some worlds. This form, without a heart, we here call "Nobodies". Some of you may already know what these are, but instead call them "Undead", the more common term that has been used throughout the worlds. However, we are far too early in the story for this to happen yet-It wouldn't happen for a LONG time, at this point.

(There you go. The trio explained. Yeah, it's just the whole "body, mind, soul" thing. See now why I said it's easier to meet that condition than not to meet it?)
