Halcandra

throughout the game. Its terrain is generally volcanic with many mechanical facilities and very few plants. The plants it does have look almost mechanical.Kirby and company come to Halcandra after collecting the five parts of the Lor Starcutter due to Magolor taking Kirby and the crew in the Lor Starcutter. While Halcandra exists in another dimension, the repaired Lor Starcutter is able to cross dimensional tunnels and reach it instantly.This planet contains two world levels: Egg Engines and Dangerous Dinner. The boss of Egg Engines is Metal General. However, if the game is played on Extra Mode, the second boss, HR-D3, is fought right after Metal General EX. The final boss of Halcandra is Landia, a four-headed dragon that shot the Lor Starcutter down twice, once in the beginning, and once in the end.The civilization that existed on Halcandra are known only as "The Ancients." Magolor told Kirby that they are said to have created many legendary treasures and left Landia to protect their valuables. They not only created the original Lor Starcutter and Master Crown, but are also implied to have had a hand in Nova, the Star Rods, HR-D3, and numerous other artifacts.Six enemies have their overall appearances changed on Halcandra, including Waddle Dee and Bronto Burt. Although they look different, they behave like they would on Planet Popstar.
