(OOC: For the sake of their current conversation, Riku can't have been to LoD or else he wouldn't have this conversation at all. We'll say that to continue to keep the land safe, Aqua didn't transform it back or it was Sora who woke Ven and neglected to tell Riku it'd been changed back. We'll also retcon and say he hadn't arrived yet.)

Riku focused on the world heart he had in mind, speaking as he did so. "Ven sacrificed himself to defeat Vanitas, and Aqua used Castle Oblivion as a place to keep his--"

And he appeared, blinking as he stood amongst a world of light. He looked around a moment before looking to Eraqus. "...Body safe." He looked around again, deciding to venture a few steps off. "This isn't... So this is what it looked like. It's beautiful."
