When [[Medusa]] took over [[Angel Land]], the three Treasures were stolen from Palutena's army and placed into the clutches of the [[Fortress]] Gatekeepers. [[Pit]] needs the power from these artifacts to defeat Medusa, and thus invades the gloomy labyrinths to reclaim them. The treasures cannot be equipped until Pit has obtained them all. | When [[Medusa]] took over [[Angel Land]], the three Treasures were stolen from Palutena's army and placed into the clutches of the [[Fortress]] Gatekeepers.

The Three Sacred Treasures make a return, and Pit must obtain them in order to defeat Medusa once more. These powerful items were being kept inside the constellations within the [[Galactic Sea]], and as a result, the [[Space Pirate]]s managed to get a hold of them. In [[Chapter 8]], Pit battles both the extraterrestrial and [[Underworld Forces]] to get the Three Sacred Treasures back. After Pit defeats the [[Galactic Fiend Kraken]], he retrieves the artifacts to use them in his fight against Medusa in [[Chapter 9]]. Pit later attempts to use them against [[Hades]] in [[Chapter 23]], but they have little effect and are quickly destroyed (likely due to the weapons growing old and brittle over the past 25 years). However, [[Pit]] and [[Palutena]] venture off to meet the [[Dyntos|creator]] of the artifacts in [[Chapter 24]] and get him to build the [[Great Sacred Treasure]] to use against [[Hades]]. | The Three Sacred Treasures make a return, and Pit must obtain them in order to defeat Medusa once more.

Pit is confirmed to have the Three Sacred Treasures as his new [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]] in this upcoming instalment. He dons the weapons and armor, then begins attacking with a flurry of arrows combined by three beams of light fired from the Mirror Shield, then finishes off with a hail of arrows that rain down as wide pillars of light, somewhat resembling the [[Bow]]'s special attack from''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. | |||
