The '''Underworld''' (冥府界 ''Meifukai'', lit. "Hades World") is a natural vertical maze, ultimately opening to the [[Overworld]]. It's a dank, dark area filled with evil monsters. Of course, the twisted creatures that inhabit the Underworld only provided a sympathetic ear and allies to [[Medusa]], who was banished here by [[Palutena]]. Staging a coup from here, Medusa started her ultimately successful invasion of [[Angel Land]] and installed herself as ruler of the [[Palace in the Sky]]. | The '''Underworld''' (冥府界 ''Meifukai'', lit.

Here's where Pit's daring escape from the dungeons begin, and it's not an easy trip. Though this area begins with long, flat platforms, it quickly becomes a tricky jumping gauntlet and Pit's foes are uncompromising. | Here's where Pit's daring escape from the dungeons begin, and it's not an easy trip.

The level starts out as the previous level, which long platforms. However, climbing is a bigger focus here. The ice platforms are introduced early here and are located throughout the level. If Pit has been vigilant about slaying monsters, he'll likely get his first [[Arrow of Strength]] here. | The level starts out as the previous level, which long platforms.
