Hey Kingdom Hearts fans! Our dedicated site staff have been trying to keep you entertained in the middle of this unfortunate news drought in the form of editorials and such, but today we bring you a truly interactive and mind-stimulating experience, courtesy of Shamdeo!

Say the "Xehanort Saga" has ended, and the Kingdom Hearts series begins totally anew; starting from scratch, if you will. The platform for this game has yet to be determined. Let's also say you've been put on the team as a director, writer, artist, level designer, or whatever you wish to build the new Kingdom Hearts game from the ground up. How would you take an already established concept like this series and start it again? What would you carry along into the new series or leave behind? What I'd like to do is start a series of discussions about what Kingdom Hearts Insider members would do if they had a chance to collaborate as if they were a development team making an entirely new "Kingdom Hearts" title. There are people here of many different talents that can write, draw, or just plain conceptualize things for a good videogame. We're interested in what you'd do!

The discussion is broken down into seven major points with a recap discussion at the end, with about a week or so in between which will give you guys some time to let your ideas stew and share them here.

This week's theme is: Story, Narrative, and Themes Design

For more information on how this will work, step into our forums. So get your creative juices flowing as we kick start this discussion (spanning several weeks). You have a voice? Make sure it's heard!
