He didn't like this.
The World That Never Was should have been swallowed up into nothingness just like the Nobodies who inhabited it. In fact, Riku specifically remembered seeing it broken not long after he'd left the islands with Sora for a routine check on several of the worlds in case Heartless were cropping up again. They were, but that was nothing new. They had yet to address the core of the problem as far as those were concerned, but Riku hadn't seen any Nobodies until he'd reached this place again.
Getting in hadn't been easy, either. There was a shroud over the place that made it difficult to navigate by Gummi, and when he automatically tried a portal (forgetting, of course--he always pulled something like that when he was late to class), he got a malicious backlash of darkness just from the thought. Something wasn't right here, and when he touched down to investigate what, he found the world just as empty of life and full of Heartless as before.
It was an idiot's job to check out the Castle That Never Was when the world looked like this. Sora probably wouldn't set foot in there without Donald and Goofy, and without the King or even his cloak, Riku was dangerously detectable.
He regarded the white gleam with narrowed aquamarine eyes, tapping Way against his shoulder and considering his options, and then stuck his other hand in his pocket and moved for the castle like a casual shopper heading to a mall.
