Plot/Theme:
Ever since the battle to retake Midgar, Aldrich had been getting strange dreams that he couldn't quite explain. Though he'd been brushing it off as his lack of rest and physical exertion as a side effect of fatigue which followed the stress of a battle, the things he'd been seeing and hearing felt all too real to simply discount what he's been having is an ordinary dream. While he'd managed talk about it to the WRO medical team in hopes of getting some psychiatric analysis, the only thing he got in return were some sleeping pills. However, in his heart, he can't help but feel the dreams he's been having will play a significant part in the current life that he lives.
Deep within his heart, the darkness that which lingers still rouses from its slumber as it begins to manifest itself, and take shape to an answer for his desire to be punished for his past sins. However, within the maelstrom of negative emotions, the light and teachings that Himari had once left him with still shines through, even if Aldrich faces the shadows of his past made real.

Justification for Keyblade application:
- Though Aldrich may be a heavily conflicted person, he has shown the strength of heart to stay his path without straying from it despite all hardships he's faced. Though he considered it once, he has never backed out from being SOLDIER simply because of the trauamatic events he'd gone through in his life. Whether it's stubbornness, dedication or both, it certainly shows a great deal of inner strength where others might have gone astray.
- Though he conducts himself professionally and puts missions first before his own desires, he's shown selflessness and decisive actions in several high stress situations. This has been shown when Sephiroth initiated his first direct attack against Shinra. When his superiors ordered for him to put his entire team to hold the line, he has divided half of his team, including himself, to serve as a distraction while the other half evacuated the non-combatants to a safer area to prioritize in the lives of the civillians.
- Aldrich has shown to break the limits he'd deliberately put on himself to not hold a spear two times when someone he truly cared about was in grave danger, going as far as to show that he is willing to break his own principle and have the courage to stand up to protect those that are close to him even if it does stems from his own fears. However, he acknowledges that his fear of loss is there, and transforms it into courage and will power to drive himself forward.
- Though he may not be able to wield a keyblade right away after facing his own darkness, but as he grows as a person, his heart will forge the blade of its own and bestow him with the weapon he needs.
