Lunar Sanctum

The Lunar Sanctum is a gigantic mechanical moon created by the Lunar God, Arlon and orbits the skies above Angel Land. It is the main setting of Chapter 13 which is named after it.

It was originally created by Arlon for the purpose of imprisoning the Chaos Kin, a vicious soul-eating creature that upset the balance of life. However it was later remade into a powerful weapon upon request by the Goddess of Nature, Viridi for it to be used by her army, the Forces of Nature to destroy humanity for their hubris. Upon discovering this truth, Palutena sent forth Pit to destroy the Lunar Sanctum and defeat Arlon before any humans suffered the weapon's wrath. He luckily succeeded, however in its destruction the Chaos Kin was released from its prison and wrecked havoc upon the world for three years.

Trivia

• When Pit first saw the Lunar Sanctum orbiting the world alongside the real moon, he was quite shocked and claimed to have never seen it before. Implying that the Lunar Sanctum was either built recently or that it had always remained out of sight from the planet before the chapter's events.
