Kratos, part one: 1. Kratos had known that there were other worlds out there. Derris-Kharlan was only the nearest, after all. 2. The first time he fought the Heartless, he wondered if this was what Mithos had been hoping for with his 'Age of Lifeless Beings'. 3. After fighting enough of them, he told himself that they weren't; that these were wild creatures, born of darkness, and nothing like Mithos's goals, all that time ago. He took some small comfort in this. 4. When he first faced a member of Organization XIII, Kratos realized with no small degree of horror that the Nobodies, by contrast, fit Mithos's goals perfectly. Without emotion, without hearts, these were the 'lifeless beings' that Mithos sought to become. 5. The fact that Mithos's killing of his own heart had created a Nobody of the half-elf was just the icing on the cake. 6. Once Kratos realized what the Organization's goals were, and how widely they sought to increase their reach, he approached Mithos's Nobody, introduced himself as a companion of his original, and offered his services. 7. After all, Lloyd was sure to oppose the Organization just as he had opposed Mithos, and Kratos's son would have an easier time of it with someone on the inside.
