In [[ | In [[Chapter 7]], Poseidon opens the sea after speaking with [[Palutena]] in hopes of being rid of [[Thanatos]] and his invasive force. Palutena soon takes credit for this feat in front of Pit, but Poseidon soon appears to correct her and is tempted to close it back up, but chooses not to until [[Pit]] reaches the [[Seafloor Palace]] where Thanatos's headquarters are. Along the way, he tells Pit of how troublesome the Underworld has been as of late and upon reaching the palace, he closes the sea once more to finish off the remaining enemies left. Once Pit is inside, he wishes the angel good luck and disappears. | ||
