+__NOTOC__
 A World Shard is a fragment of a World Heart. Some of them are tiny, like the Cloisters of Spira. While others are massive, like the Giza Plains. Generally, for a Shard to have survived the fall of a world to [[Darkness]], it would have to have had meaning to people. It has to have been remembered in their own [[Heart|Hearts]], and matter to them.

-==PROPERTIES==
+==Properties==
 As a piece of a World, a World Shard has unusual properties. Often a Shard will have a resonance of some kind, relating to what it used to be a part of. For example, a Shard of the Agrabah Bazaar may relate to heat, trade, loss, or other facets related to said world. Those who have the needed knowledge can attempt to leverage these resonances in various forms, including advanced [[Sorcery]], manipulation of the [[Dream]], or crafting a device that can make use of those abilities via [[Technology]].
-==SHARD CREATION==
+==Shard Creation==
 Making World Shards are both simple and terrible at the same time. All one has to do is force a world to break apart and be consumed by the Darkness, either slowly in the form of the [[Dark Seas]], or all at once, by guiding the [[Heartless]] towards the World’s Heart, immediately devouring it.

 Those people who do not escape the Darkness lie suspended within the Shard, either sleeping until such time as the world is freed… or perhaps becoming Heartless themselves if they are truly unfortunate.
-==LOCATING A SHARD==
+==Locating A Shard==
 World Shards will then begin to appear, often in the same manner as [[Gummi Blocks]], falling from the Darkness into other worlds. Oftentimes a World Shard will land near something that shares a resonance with it. a Shard of Agrabah might land in a desert or be picked up by a genie... or an evil sorcerer, for example. Other times, it might seem completely random.

 The presence of a Shard can be discovered. As a fragment of a Heart, it can be located through any method that would sense such things. Heartless naturally seek out World Shards to return them to the Darkness, while Sorcery and Technology can be used in various ways to attempt to do the same. Using something related to the Shard can help immensely… But often, locating a Shard is only half the battle. The Heart is a source of power in the worlds, a fragment of a World Heart being just as valid as anything else. Often, things seeking this power will have acquired them… And they will not let them go easily.
-==RESTORATION==
+==Restoration==
 A World Shard can be restored to existence through several means. The simplest is to use a [[Keyblade]], as the Keyblade is a channel towards interacting with the Heart and all it contains. Other methods may be available for those who are willing to find out what the Shard will respond to. Some might require a song. Others, great sacrifice or bravery. What a Shard requires always is related to the world it has come from. If one is not careful, however, they can have destructive consequences on the world around them… or the contents of the Shard itself. One cannot take such efforts lightly.

-{{#set:Information=Theme}}A World Shard is what is left of a world after it has fallen to darkness, or the World Heart has left said world without finding a Princess of Heart. It's either a piece of a world, or a world in itself - out there. Sometimes, these World Shards take the form of a giant world in space, filled with darkness. But yet sometimes, they may be found in other worlds; fallen and attracted to the power of other World Hearts.
+{{#set:Information=Theme}}
-Think of the Winnie The Pooh book for instance - a shard embedded into a book found in Merlin's House. Other examples for us are Figaro, which has fallen under the desert near Agrabah - and the Cloisters of Spira which have been littered along the worlds.

-Some of these World Shards are revived on their own, if enough light remained within that world - but those Shards are rare. Most World Shards are dormant, locked... and they require a special kind of person to Unlock them. A special kind of Key to open that Lock. They need the power of a [[Keyblade Wielders|Keyblade Wielder]].

-So to summarize, a World Shard comes in three varieties. Note that they can come 'broken', meaning that pieces of the same shard need to be collected before they work. The knowledge of their existance, and the need for a Keyblade Wielder to unlock them is public enough for those with a small bit of patience.
-It's also important to note that it's '''impossible to tell''' for the crystalized shards, what type of shard they are, until they are unlocked.
+==SHARD CREATION==
-* '''World Fragment''': A part of a world, broken off from their original and come to life elsewhere. '''Example''': Spira's Cloisters
-* '''World Gate''': A portal to a new world. These can be found locked as a crystallized object or already unlocked. '''Examples''': The portal to New Orleans, or the Winnie The Pooh book.

-* '''True World Shard''': A shard that contains a world. These are created when a world falls to darkness. When unlocked, it will move and place the world within the greater universe again - but its heart must be locked to save it from the heartless. When locked, it's a large crystallized piece that represents the world. '''Example''': The Manhattan Shard.
