Story[]
Origin[]
Thirteen years before Kingdom Hearts, Houka was born and came into existance. Growing up within the world of Ai Town, Houka discovered that he was bound for adventure. The town in which he grew up in wasn't big enough for him to journey through everyday and be satisfied and even worse, Houka was doomed to go on his adventures alone. At the age of six, Houka met seven-year-old Heira and the two quickly became the best of friends. Heira and Houka dreamed of exploring far off distant lands and becoming heroes known through the universe. Heira and Houka however could not achieve their dreams because they didn't have a vessel to take them to the different worlds other than the one they lived on.
Houka and Heira continued being friends into their days as teenagers and still held on firmly to their dreams. Finally one day Heira decided to leave Ai Town and within a few hours of him leaving, a strange thunderstorm with dark clouds struck the city and engulfed it. Shortly after the destruction of the town in which he lived, Houka awoke to find that he had survived the destruction of the town and begins his quest to restore his homeworld.
Personality[]

It is easy for Houka to grow attached to things, people, and places and cherishes nothing any more than he does friendship and family. His love for his family and friends is why Houka eagerly began to search for a way to destroy his homeworld once arriving in Traverse Town.
