The Underworld Key, guarded by Thanatos, is an important relic that opens up a now closed pathway to the Underworld. The god of death safe-keeps it inside his belly, an important task only the second-in-command is given. Unlike past games where entering the Underworld was possible by anyone who survived, a key is now needed.
Appearances
Kid Icarus: Uprising
The Key first appears in the boss battle of Chapter 7, The Seafloor Palace. Once Pit defeats the god of death, he will explode and release the Underworld Key he kept inside him. The angel takes it and is then returned to Palutena. Once the Three Sacred Treasures are re-equipped, Pit descends into the portal using the key in Chapter 9, Medusa's Final Battle. Once the key opens up a path to the dimension, it is unknown what became of it after. In the key's more detailed Idol appearances, it is shown that the diamond has an Underworld Army logo imprinted on it.
