Sacred Casket

Sacred Caskets hold the Three Sacred Treasures and have appeared in all three main games to date. Though the treasures vary slightly from the original to its sequels, the caskets themselves serve the same general purpose throughout the series.

Appearances

Kid Icarus

The three Sacred Caskets first appeared in this game, each one containing the Arrow of Light, Mirror Shield, and the Wings of Pegasus. All three caskets must obtained before they can be opened, allowing Pit access to their contents. They are all won by defeating a boss in a Fortress. By the time all the caskets are achieved, the final battle is straight ahead.

Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters

The three Sacred Caskets return in this game and are also found in Fortresses, although this time one of them contains the Silver Armor rather than the Mirror Shield. Otherwise, they serve the same purpose as in the previous game, although they were intentionally given to the game's bosses by Palutena this time in order to test Pit's strength.

Kid Icarus: Uprising

This time around, only a singular Sacred Casket is featured possibly carrying all three of the Sacred Treasures. The casket along with its contents were stolen by the Space Pirates during the eighth chapter of the storyline, prompting Pit to go after them. In order to get it back, the angel will have to fight the dangerous Space Kraken at the end of the chapter.

Physical Appearance

The three Sacred Caskets all resemble a typical treasure chest or Treasure Chest, but they are quite tall and thin in terms of appearance. Every casket has a lock on it that keeps it shut until the three of them are brought together. Although they are red in color during the game, the official artwork shows that the caskets are actually yellow.
