The town for people who have no home to return to——

It was always night time in Traverse Town. It had sparkling neon lights, so it was still pretty bright in town. You could still see stars in the night sky and they were still pretty. But everyone who lived in this town, they all seemed so sad. I guess it makes sense, though, since everyone who arrived in Traverse Town had lost their home worlds to disasters. That just means this town exists in the Realm Between. When we defeated Ansem, this town disappeared and all the people who lived here were returned to their original worlds. But where did Traverse Town end up after it disappeared? Sometimes I would dream about visiting, but it would feel so nostalgic. I wonder if that’s because the town was filled with the thoughts and feelings of so many people.

It’s where I met Donald and Goofy. It’s where I met Leon and the others. But now I can never go back to visit. That makes it feel so lonely. I mean, it was the first world I ever visited outside of Destiny Islands, you know?

I visited it again as a Dream World. Joshua said it was a world he’d built from his dreams. In that case, then I guess it was a different town than the one I first visited. But even so, in some ways, it still felt so familiar.

I really wish I could go back there with everyone.
