The Hundred Acre Wood

Back aboard the gummi ship, we received a call from Chip and Dale. They said the wizard Merlin wanted to speak with Sora for some reason. We headed to Twilight Town, where we suspected he he might be having a spot tea.

Sure enough, we found Merlin at Little Chef's bistro. The wizard produced a picture book: the very book containing the world of Winnie the Pooh and his friends. Sora should have been a familiar face in the Hundred Acre Wood, but for some reason his picture had vanished form the book's cover. Sora decided to pay the wood a visit and figure out what exactly might be going on.

"You're home," said Pooh as he and all his friends welcome Sora back. Everyone seemed to be safe and happy as they gathered at Rabbit's house, and so Sora was all but ready to go. But before he could, he was roped into helping Rabbit with the garden work.

Once the last harvest was in, Rabbit presented an overjoyed Pooh Bear with potful of honey. But Pooh's next remarks troubled Sora greatly. Sora realized that Pooh had forgotten him briefly, and that meant their connection had weakened somehow--or been weakened.

Since the last time he'd seen Pooh, Sora had nearly become Xehanort's vessel. What other connections had been broken in the process? Merlin reminded him with a smile that what is lost can always be found again.
