Palutena and Medusa originally co-ruled Angel Land together. However, Medusa's hatred and destructive treatment towards the humans caused the light goddess to turn her into a hideous monster, and banish her to the depths of the [[Underworld]]. The dark goddess would then respond by creating an allegiance with the Underworld beasts and take over the rest of Angel Land. Palutena's Army fell to the Underworld forces, and the light goddess herself became imprisoned within the Palace in the Sky. As a last resort, Palutena used her remaining strength to send a magical [[Bow]] to her young, loyal angel servant, named Pit, who was trapped beneath the Underworld. Armed with the sacred weapon of the goddess, Pit went forward on to his quest to gather the [[Three Sacred Treasures]] to destroy Medusa and rescue Palutena. | Palutena and Medusa originally co-ruled Angel Land together.

This time around, Palutena has a much more active role as the story's deuteragonist. The goddess of light discovers that Medusa has returned after 25 years, and is attempting to dispose the humans once more while seeking vengeance from her and Pit. In order to protect the people, Palutena calls Pit forth to help her defeat Medusa. The light goddess grants the angel the [[Power of Flight]], which allows him to fly for five minutes before his wings burn up. Also this time around, Palutena will entrust Pit with the [[Blade|First Blade]] instead of the traditional [[Bow]] as the introductory weapon. Throughout the game, Palutena will continuously guide the young angel via telepathy. | This time around, Palutena has a much more active role as the story's deuteragonist.
