This is probably the most curious episode out of all of Dark Road story, as it depicts events connecting all of Xehanort's life, moments that we never saw in a proper order. It mixes scenes from both Dark Road and Birth by Sleep, giving us a glimpse of the future heroes of the saga and how the friendship between Xehanort and Eraqus fell apart. Watching this after their relationship in Dark Road is much more painful, after all their promises to respectively watch their backs. Eraqus changed a lot, but he always tried to overlook Xehanort's actions in the past, leading to nothing.

As for the KH3 flashbacks of the chess scenes where Eraqus wins, this is how I envisioned them. Those scenes and dialogues in KH3 are just a "poetic way" to announce Sora's victory, thanks to the light of the past. I like to think that they didn't really happen during Dark Road, but they're just a medium for giving us a preview of the future events (Ephemer helping Sora and the Lost Master arc).

Some of the next episodes related to Birth by Sleep will be re-uploaded, as they need to catch up with the episodes numbering order. Master Xehanort's reports will be remade following this new format. There's one more reference to Luxu that will be included as well.

The new episodes will be added to the playlist as soon as they're uploaded. The old episodes that do not need to be updated, story or content wise, will be added there as well.

I’ll leave some basic Q&A down here related to the future of the Timeline:


1)
Q: Will you be uploading all of the episodes from the scratch?
A: No. I’ll just reupload the episodes containing flashbacks/callbacks that we got to see after the release of KH3. For instance, the beginning of Birth by Sleep will be reuploaded since I’ll have to add the dialogue between Master Xehanort and Vanitas at the Land of Departure, occurring in Dark Road.

2)
Q: Will the old episodes be deleted?
A: No. All of the episodes will stay, but the new ones will have the text “NEW” in the thumbnail and in the video title. The new episodes will replace the old ones in the Timeline playlist in my channel.

3)
Q: Will you be making KH3 as well?
A: Yes, but my main goal was completing both KHUX and Dark Road. I do have some plans for KH3 but I’m considering of using the PC version of it, so I can disable the music through mods and do some…special stuff. If you are a KH3 modder/you know someone who could help me, please message me on Twitter!

4)
Q: So all of the 123 episodes list will be messed up?
A: No. KHUX will still finish on Episode 11 like I planned years ago. Dark Road will start on Episode 12. Only the beginning of Birth by Sleep might have a small change of numbers in the playlist.

5)
Q: Why did you put Missing-Link in the intro alongside the other titles?
A: Because...never say never. There's no way I can put the whole story of Missing-Link in the Timeline, not in the near future. That game's story might last some years, like it happened with KHUX. However, I did want to include it in the panels titles screen, so we finally have a complete timeline screen, for once.

If you're more curious or you have more questions, please ask!
