Quick notes

Palutena enables Pit’s flight. Pit cannot sustain ordinary flight on his own.
Dark Pit has his own agenda. The rival is not simply a permanent duplicate teammate.
Viridi leads a different faction. The Goddess of Nature commands forces separate from Hades’s Underworld Army.
Medusa is not the final story endpoint. Her chapter-nine fight closes the first major arc.

Palutena enables Pit’s flight
