Many series have objects that are central to that universe’s premise. Lord of the Rings has, of course, the Rings of Power and the One Ring, which are the driving force behind the story’s progression and all of the character’s actions. Kingdom Hearts has its own central object–the Keyblade. But, while some series have their MacGuffins as only two-dimensional objects whose purpose or story never changes, the Keyblade can be considered a character in and of itself. It has undergone development and changes in its story and usage, as well as how the characters of the series perceive it.
Quatre Winner returns this Monday to give you the development of the keyblade mythos from past to present, with a lasting impression of a future possibility for the mystic weapon.
