History was set in stone when the Darkness rose from the ashes of betrayal. Light was weakened by the corrupted forces from the heart of all worlds, Kingdom hearts. It was within the realm of darkness that rose an uprising of not just mindless heartless, but their conquer in the form of Maleficent, and other six Evil Ones. Her cohorts took the worlds chained by the Keyholes. But before this story continues, the backstory of where it all began. Just twenty years before the uprising, Radiant Garden almost met its demise at the hands of The Darkness. This is the tale of its near end.

Twenty years into the past, Radiant Garden was a marvel of what all worlds connected by The Light embodied: peace, harmony, and just ever-lasting happiness. Under the rule of their kind, and majestic King, Ansem The Wise. His rule was not of tyranny. He put his citizens first, and took care of his subordinates. Truly, peace was had at the highest of powers.
Ansem The Wise always had foretold a time where the peace would be interrupted by the forces of darkness. He just didn’t know it would happen on the day he would induct his successor as the new King of Radiant Garden. However, The Evil Seven had took action right as the ceremony was about to start.
From the skies of the harmonious, blue skies of Radiant Garden, thousands and thousands of heartless of all classes and levels took over the city. Even with the Radiant Garden Armed Forces or RGAF for short, on the frontlines, it still was hard for them to defeat the heartless. It was even with warriors of legend such as Zack Fair, Hercules, Cloud Strife, Mulan, Reno, Terra, Aqua, Ventus, and many others, there was still thousands of Heartless that provided them with a challenge.
Eventually, they were able to fend off the Heartless but this wasn’t before they reached the King, who had his apprentices by his side, but they couldn’t do anything. The King had to face against The Evil Seven, and their leader, Maleficent. Even though he was strong, and a technical genius, he still wasn’t no match for all seven of The Evil Seven. Added to that, they all restricted his powers that he had gained from the Realm of Darkness, and furthermore, Maleficent had induced his heart with such an influx of darkness that it consumed him.
It is unknown whether he survived, but all that is known is that the former King of Radiant Garden had been caught in a huge explosion that resulted in Ansem’s castle being demolished, and his body vanished.

To this day, no one knows what happened to Ansem The Wise during the Darkest Day of Radiant Garden’s history, but its rumored he resides within the Realm of Nothingness, but still not proven.
Over the course of twenty years, the uprising was just the first of many events. Among others, the takeover of a majority of the worlds that were once connected by the Keyholes have now been severed and now are riding on an one-hundred percent darkness scale, and it continues to rise as each day passes. Even Disney Castle has fallen, and the whereabouts of King Mickey, Queen Minnie, and the Royal Knights have been rumored to center around The World That Never Was, but other rumors dictate that they are in Traverse Town and Twilight Town.
The Evil Seven have big plans concerning the universal takeover. They currently are conducting plans to do a takeover of Twilight and Traverse Town. If they succeed, the Chosen Eight, the Nobodies that have chosen Light, will fall as those two worlds respectively are a gateway to The World That Never Was.
The Evil Seven must be stopped. They must not be allowed to complete their Uprising. The fate of all worlds count on the forces of light to succeed.
