Xion, pondering all these new events and putting them together with what she already knows, has come up with a solution. She went to the wild places and stood there until they changed her, and is now decked out appropriately for the occasion. The horns and wings appear quite real, under close inspection, and the latter actually move a bit.

Her Keyblade has changed, too, to match her new colors. To those who have only seen her hooded, the mask covers her whole face. It's like this that she finally meets no resistance, venturing into the Hollow.
