Summary
After Vanitas leaves behind the Thirteen Darknesses, he goes to seek the one thing he wants the most: his body, or rather, Ventus’s body, since he was the one lucky enough to win the body and the name. But Castle Oblivion is a torturous place to go through for someone whose memories are a nightmare.
Multiple Endings
Inspired by a comic on tumblr, though I don't know the artist.
Sequel to ‘Curtains Close’, because I’m incapable of writing one-shots.
Chapters 2 through 6 posted at once on April 4, 2018 because I'm impatient.

Summary
Posted all at once for your bingeing pleasure!
Bits of story happening behind the scenes in the Chains of Light Series (A Kairi as Protagonist AU) and how it connects to the Power of Memories Saga. Essentially, this is like the 'side games' in the Kingdom Hearts series. These can be skipped if you want, but they fill in a lot of blanks and make the coming story make a lot more sense, and should be read. Included in this mix are:
Explanation of the Master of Masters--who he is within this universe and where he stands.
The fate of the main cast of the Power of Memories saga (The Power of Memories, A Bottle of Stars, Solace Arc)-what became of them after Solace destroyed that timeline.
Explanation as to where the main cast of the Power of Memories saga fit into their original timeline and how they are now placed in the new one.
How all these characters end up where they are in the main third installment of Chains of Light.
A brief addition to 'Through Oblivion I Will Find What's Mine' and introduction of a new character.
A summary of how KH3 ended before the PoM timeline.Series

Empty Light/Empty Darkness by the_protector_of_light

Summary
"Lucidia had nothing but her name. Lucidia, for her heart of clear light…now a heart of emptiness, no chains tying her to the light. No connections…nothing. Just Lucidia, the heart of empty light.
Empty light…that was all she was. Empty light. Nothing but light…a tiny, flickering flame, with no way out.
The silent castle seemed to breathe. She had stopped crying long ago."Long ago, a kingdom fell to the Heartless and into the Realm of Darkness-the only survivor was the queen--a Princess of Heart named Lucidia. Her name meant emptiness, and that was all she knew--stuck in the Realm of Darkness with no living connection to the light, she watched over her empty kingdom.
Post Through Oblivion I Will Find What's Mine, Vanitas gets trapped within the Realm of Darkness and happens upon the fallen kingdom, and Lucidia within. When Lucidia says his name, it feels right--like he will be okay, and that together, they can get back to the light. Right?Series
