Castle Bleck Entry

The Castle Bleck Entry is the entrance to Castle Bleck in Super Paper Mario. It is the setting of both Chapter 8-1 and of Princess Peach's and Luigi's chapter interlude escape attempts, during which they are playable. At the end of Chapter 8-1, O'Chunks and Bowser engage in battle, with the latter emerging victorious. However, there is little chance for celebration, as The Void begins to affect the structural integrity of the castle. The entire structure rumbles, and the ceiling begins to collapse. Bowser at first struggles to bear the weight of the ceiling alone, but O'Chunks soon aids him. Mario and the others then feel another tremor and are unable to return to the previous room (having advanced forward before the confrontation), forced to continue on their trek through the castle without knowing the fate of either Bowser or O'Chunks.
