[[File:Hot_Springs.png|right|140px|thumb|A Hot Spring in ''Kid Icarus''.]]
Hot springs first appeared in this adventure, resembling pools of glowing water that replenish Pit's health. These are particularly desired in [[Fortress]]es; not only are the enemy forces stronger, but the room can be re-entered at any point, making this location something to be remembered once discovered. Hot Springs will only recover health, it does not cure Pit of the dreaded [[Eggplant Wizard|Eggplant Curse]]; that's what the friendly [[Nurse]] at the [[Hospital]] does.

In this adventure, a mysterious cloaked figure named [[Crow]] appears in unguarded Hot Spring Chambers. At other times, these chambers may be guarded by [[Totem]]s. Pit's health recovers much faster here.

Hot Spring Chambers return in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' and serve the same function as in the original adventures. Here, the springs also recover any status effects on Pit, however they do not replenish his [[Powers]]. A hot spring is first encountered in [[Gaol's Castle]], where [[Magnus]] openly expresses confusion about what it does. Later on in Chapter 18, ''[[The Ring of Chaos]]'', it is revealed that only angels are healed by the springs; humans are granted no effect. However, if the soul of an angel is in the body of a human, then the latter receives this temporary gift.
Hot springs return in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' and serve the same function as in the original adventures, however, a single spring will eventually lose its healing abilities if Pit exploits it too much (this is shown by the water no longer glowing yellow). This time around, the springs also recover any [[Status Ailments|status effects]] on the angel, but they do not replenish his [[Powers]]. A hot spring is first encountered in [[Gaol's Castle]], where [[Magnus]] openly expresses confusion about what it does. Later on in Chapter 18: ''[[The Ring of Chaos]]'', it is revealed that only angels are healed by the springs; humans are granted no effect. However, if the soul of an angel is in the body of a human, then the latter receives this temporary gift.
