When I was scrolling on Tumblr and looking at the many posts about the KH4 Teaser Trailer, I noticed something I had never had before on the coat of the hooded girl in the beginning.

The buttons…there’s a symbol on them.

Due to it being hard to make out, and from an educated guess, I thought it was a fleur de lis. It was a symbol that has appeared often in this franchise, especially in Khux. It made the most sense to me but for some reason, I wasn’t convinced I was right. So, I decided to go back to the teaser trailer and take a closer look myself.

I got a screenshot and traced the shape the best I could and got this:

While it is a very crude attempt, it proved me right. This isn’t a fleur-de-lis, yet it looks similar to one. Why is that?

In my “quest” to figure out what this actually is, I went to Google and searched for cross symbols to see if I could find a match. After comparing several I’ve narrowed it down to none other than a Cross Fleury.

Now what exactly is a Cross Fleury?

According to Gallery Byzantium, it’s this:

Quite interesting, right? However, that’s not all, after viewing an article from Ecclesiastical Sewing, I’ve discovered this:

French Kings who saw themselves as the principal defenders of faith…hmm, doesn’t this remind anyone of the Master of Masters?

I never realized it before, but we’ve seen this symbol clearly before on the Master’s own coat in KH3.

I asked a good friend of mine, @teaandfics (they’re amazing <3) what they think, and this is what they had to say, “I could definitely see it since the coats are meant to ward off darkness…Being imbedded with subtle elements of light (so to speak) would be fitting.”

The real star of today's trailer(Joking)
