Riku chuckles and snorts; true, Promenade had certainly be weird, but...
"This one is just as weird. ...If not more so."
Probably more so, really.
He glances between Aqua and Terra, frowning confused at Terra's random seeming 'No kidding'-comment, then apologetic about jumping to conclusion.
He presses his lips together, then nods. The best way to prevent anything from happening is to have an idea of what happened back home. Still, he has to warn them...
"I doubt I know everything-" Very likely, far from. "-but I'll tell you what I do know for sure."
Taking a deep breath, he gathers his thoughts, all that he's found out since Promenade... all that DiZ or Mickey had hinted at, that he had read in the reports Sora had gathered during his journey.
"Sometimes over eleven years ago an amnesiac man named Xehanort arrived in Radiant Garden and became apprentice to Di- Ansem, the Wise.
He and the other apprentices started to experiment with the Darkness and its effects on the Heart... eventually causing the Heartless to invade the Realm of Light... and all of them to lose their Hearts, leaving behind their shells... Nobodies.
Over the following ten years Xehanort's Heartless manipulated Maleficent to capture all Princesses of Heart and his Nobody gathered others like him and created the Organization XIII. Sora managed to put a stop to both their plans, but recently, we found out their true purpose."
He halts for a second, hands clenching into fists.
"It was to collect and shape the pieces needed to create the key to the true Kingdom Hearts."
