[[Pit]] will start this chapter in the quiet sky, where [[Palutena]] will explain that the [[Reaper]]s did a great job of hiding the entrance to Pandora's lair. The angel becomes puzzled, before witnessing the formation of a dimensional rift that leads to Pandora's labyrinth. During one of the most bizarre flying sequences of the adventure, Pit must travel through a series of vortexes and polygonal hallways, many of which play mind tricks with deceptive walls and illusions. Enemies are everywhere, but also seem disoriented in this space, with some randomly disappearing while others seem to lose control of their flight. This is also the first chapter where different paths can be taken, although most of them lead to dead ends that will only waste the [[Power of Flight]]. Towards the end, Pit will fly through multiple illusions, including a recreation of the [[The Return of Palutena|first chapter]], a short trip through space, a seemingly digitalized area, and a large hall with columns that can deflect aprojectiles. | [[Pit]] will start this chapter in the quiet sky, where [[Palutena]] will explain that the [[Reaper]]s did a great job of hiding the entrance to Pandora's lair.

It is also home to the Mirror of Truth, which is responsible for the creation of Dark Pit. It starts with Pit immediately landing after the confusing flight into the Labyrinth. Pit and Palutena will banter with Pandora all throughout the chapter, mainly commenting about the unique setting. In addition to trampolines, Pit will wander into multiple arenas where [[Exo Tank]]s can be used. He will also have to fight his way through confusing, moving walls and invisible floors to get towards the boss room where Pandora resides. Once he reaches the area, he exchanges some conversation with Pandora before fighting. | ||

The chapter's Intensity Gate is located beneath the trampolines found halfway through the level, and requires a high difficulty setting of 8.0. It contains no traps, but rather a classic room decorated with textures from the original ''[[Kid Icarus]]'', as well as an image of its well-known shop. A single [[Treasure Chest]] can be found here, which contains a weapon. | The chapter's Intensity Gate is located beneath the trampolines found halfway through the level, and requires a high difficulty setting of 8.0.

Pandora serves as the boss of this chapter, and is capable of using teleportation and other deceptive tactics during the fight. One of her main attacks is to spit out bombs that can be hit back at her with melee attacks, as doing so will cause the most damage to her. Halfway through the battle, she will pretend to surrender and trick Pit into breaking the Mirror of Truth, which results in the creation of Dark Pit. Pandora reveals that this was her intention all along--however, to her surprise, Dark Pit turns against her and teams up with Pit. Together, they defeat Pandora. Immediately afterwards, Dark Pit gives his counterpart a mighty kick and mentions of how he dislikes Pit copying his look. | Pandora serves as the boss of this chapter, and is capable of using teleportation and other deceptive tactics during the fight.
