===[[The Tower of the Leptys]]===

The explosion of the [[Hoodlum Headquarters]] sent [[Rayman]] flying through the air – now he lands at the foot of [[the Tower of the Leptys]], slowing his descent with his [[helicopter]] hair. The sky above glows with [[the Leptys]]'s power. Rayman enters the Tower and begins to climb. Although the Tower is filled with [[Hoodlum]]s, the statues it contains make it apparent that it was built by the [[Knaaren]] in honour of their god, [[the Leptys]]. Eventually Rayman meets up with [[Globox]], who seems to have escaped the [[Hoodlum Headquarters]] with the [[Armaguiddon]] he now drives. The heroes use the Armaguiddon to ascend through the upmost tunnels of the Tower, which are filled with gigantic gears and vertical passageways which would have been impassable on foot. Rayman must use the Armaguiddon's plasma cannon to defeat waves of Hoodlum-piloted enemy Armaguiddons along the way. Globox seems to miss André's presence – he now perceives the malevolent [[Black Lum]] as a mischievous child, and seems to lack any awareness of what is actually happening. Once they reach the top of the Tower, Rayman goes on ahead to the final confrontation. [[Reflux]] has grown and mutated as a result of absorbing [[the Leptys]]'s power. The two have a brief battle – Rayman defeats Reflux by attacking the Sceptre. Reflux then decides that he requires more power than he can get by simply wielding [[the Sceptre of the Leptys]] as a weapon – he now takes the Sceptre and embeds it into the flesh of his own back. This greatly magnifies Reflux's power, causing him to mutate even further and grow to a colossal size. The two have another battle – Rayman now manages to climb up Reflux's arm and onto his back, where he can continue to attack the Sceptre embedded in his flesh. Next Reflux begins to float, and causes the upper blocks of the Tower to levitate upwards with him. Rayman must climb these blocks while avoiding Reflux's attacks. Eventually Rayman finds a [[Shock Rocket]], which he uses to attack the Sceptre once more. Reflux then sprouts wings – he now bears a resemblance to the gigantic, eagle-like statue of the Leptys seen in [[the Desert of the Knaaren]]. He flies upwards into the glowing storm of energy overhead. Rayman is unsure how to proceed – luckily Globox appears in his Armaguiddon, and the heroes ride it upwards into the strange storm in the sky. They then find themselves in a surreal landscape filled with eyes on stalks – this world appears to be some manifestation of the Leptys itself. They are attacked by Reflux, who chases them in a circle through the air. Rayman uses the Armaguiddon's plasma cannon to damage Reflux. This forces Reflux to alight on the ground of this bizarre place for a moment so he can recover. When he lands, Reflux shoots a barrage of hundreds of Black Lums from the flesh of his back. As they hit the ground, they transform into an army of Hoodlums. These Hoodlums march back into Reflux, where they are absorbed. If Rayman uses the Armaguiddon's bomb launcher to kill some of the Hoodlums, Reflux's overall health is reduced. When all of these Hoodlums are absorbed or destroyed, Reflux flies after the heroes and their Armaguiddon again. These two stages of the battle are repeated alternately until either Rayman or Reflux is defeated. when Reflux is finally beaten, he freezes into a gigantic block of solid ice, then shatters and disappears. André emerges from Reflux's remains – it is revealed that he was inside Reflux throughout the entire battle. This is the reason Reflux could shoot Black Lums from his back – André was inside him, converting the energy from the Sceptre of the Leptys into more Black Lums. André is now alone and helpless, and is entirely at Rayman's mercy. In desperation he cries out to Globox for help, but receives none. Rayman pulls a [[Grimace]], converting André back into a [[Red Lum]]. This causes all of the Black Lums throughout [[the Glade of Dreams|the Crossroads of Dreams]] to revert, effectively putting an end to the Hoodlum invasion. Rayman and Globox tumble all the way to the ground; their fall is broken by a [[Squab]]. Rayman realises that they are now in exactly the same place they were in when [[Murfy]] woke them up at the beginning of the game. He remarks that they can now get a good night's sleep after all – the events of the entire game took place over the course of just one day. Globox appears to be sad. When Rayman asks him what is wrong, Globox says that he misses André. He asks Rayman to scare a Red Lum, thus bringing André back. Rayman says that he does not think this is a good idea. As he drifts off to sleep, Rayman remarks that that he hates to imagine what could possibly scare a [[Lum]]. A flashback is then shown. It reveals that, immediately prior to the beginning of the game, Rayman's hands sleepwalked and created strange shadow puppets on a wall. These shadow puppets frightened a nearby Red Lum so badly that it was transformed into a Black Lum: André. This means that the actions of Rayman's wandering hands brought about the creation of the Hoodlum army and caused all the events of the entire game, and since in the end Rayman and Globox return to the starting point, the ending makes it clear that history will repeat. itself.
