** If we were to take what Medusa said in Chapter 9 literally, that she would "sever him from the heavens" by [[spoiler: stripping him of his wings]], then it's possible that [[spoiler: Palutena really ''can't'' restore his wings because he's been cut off from her, and the Rewind Spring is the only way to save him because it reestablishes his link to Palutena.]]

*** The way I read that scene was that [[spoiler: Pyrrhon was dead, and the force propelling the Aurum out of the system was his body burning/combusting for however long a god of fire burns for, basically acting as a rocket propulsion system. He's "finally doing something useful", but only in death.]]

*** Viridi was completely offscreen throughout chapter 13; the only order she gave to the sanctum ''was'' to remain defensive, and I highly doubt simply hiding it in deep space would have been a viable option for Mother "Earth" anyway. Besides, making news of the Chaos Kin public would've only increased the chances of Palutena and Hades targeting Arlon (likely to apprehend the Chaos Kin herself and to utilize the creature for his own plans, respectively), whereas the only reason the former suddenly decided to attack it was to force checkmate on the Forces of Nature.
*** I doubt Palutena would have tried to apprehend the Chaos Kin herself. It doesn't seem in character for her to have a pissing contest with such a dangerous entity.

*** [[spoiler: Or stop the [[MemeticMolester Chaos Kin]] from taking her, period.]]
*** I agree with the above. [[spoiler: When the Chaos Kin took Pit's body, he rampaged for three years and probably killed hundreds of people, without his soul though, Pit's body was blank and empty. If the Chaos Kin had taken Palutena's body, it probably would have access to God-like power.]]

Where does Pit get his weapon for the air section of chapter 18? I mean, if you have either a Magnus Club, Some sort of palm or a darkness bow equipped, I get where the weapon would have come from. (Magnus for the club, the tattoos for the palms just might not have been removed during Pit's time spent in that ring and the darkness bow could have just been looted from Pit's body as that's the weapon Pit's body was using. Anything else = WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GET THAT?!?!?!?

** There may be a power vacuum in the Underworld now, but given that Hades was using the souls to create armies for himself, it may be that Palutena and the rest of the pantheon simply figured that a power vacuum would be less harmful to the universe as a whole than having Hades there actively breaking the system. I'm sure there are other gods and goddesses out there who could help pick up the slack. Sure, the souls might be milling around aimlessly at the moment, but it's better than getting eaten by Hades or turned into monsters.

** Because, like it or not, she's a fairly complex character. Yes, she hates humans, but remember that she follows a BlueAndOrangeMorality. The Reset Bombs are essentially [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_succession secondary succession]] fastforwarded by a factor of several thousand; in her eyes, she's just speeding up what was going to happen anyway, which she thinks is completely different from humans killing each other with conventional weapons and explosives. Without Reset Bombs, her only option is outright violence against humans, which, by her aforementioned morality (although not any morality common to humans) is entirely different and wrong: thus, she becomes harmless. As for still hating humans at the end of the game, of course she isn't going to turn her opinion around 180 degrees so quickly; that's just not how people work, godly or otherwise. But it's obvious that she has grown attached to Pit (why else would she have helped him fly and set up an entire area for him to prepare for battle instead of sending Phosphora and a few more of her commanders to find and kill the Chaos Kin?), so even if/when she gets her Reset Bomb factory back up and running, she may find Pit and Palutena to be too important to her to risk their odd friendship. I can see her eventually being convinced to try to teach humans to act the way she desires them to instead of killing them... but this is veering into WMG territory, so I'll stop here.
