The Birth of the Saints!
Many of the well known land warriors were
defeated by Poseidon's fierce attack. It seems then, on the
battlefield, young
boys(youths) appeared.
Because Athena hates weapons, the youths fought
with their own bodies as weapons. Saddened by those youths getting
injured, Athena gave to those youths the protection called Cloths.
The youths who wore them were then called Saints.

The Cloths
The Cloths that the Saints wore were made by
the alchemists on the Mu Continent, with Athena's
instructions. The
materials used was Orichalcum, Gammanium and Star Dust Sand.
Because of these materials, a certain amount of damage can

be repaired by itself. And, the Cloth Boxes that stores the Cloths
are like preservers for the life of the Cloths. Each Cloth has
its own exclusive Box made and the boxes hastens each Cloth's self
restoration ability.
The Constellations are Design Plans for the Cloths!?
The shining 88 constellations, in the night
sky, showed up by Athena's wish and were the design plans for the
Cloths. It
seems because of this, the wearer can't wear a Cloth that is not
his/hers protective constellation.
Poseidon's Defeat
With the birth of the Saints, the disadvantage
Athena was able to reverse the situation and try to persuade
Poseidon to give
up his ambition and return to the Oceans. But, Poseidon ignored
Athena's request, and with his Marinas entrenched himself
inside Atlantis and caused floods and earthquakes which took many
lives.
Angered by this, Athena dispatched 8 Saints to
Atlantis. At the end of an intense fight, the 8 Saints destroyed
Atlantis and
sunk it to the bottom of the ocean.
Warriors of Justice and Hope, the Saints are Finally Born.
The Roots of the Blue Warriors are Saints?
With Poseidon's defeat, Athena contained his
spirit in the Arctic Regions. To keep an eye on Poseidon's Spirit,
few Saints
went to the Arctic and made a settlement there and they built a
country. After, they became the Blue Warriors.

The Birth of Sanctuary
After 7 generations from the first Holy War, a
temple dedicated to Athena near the present city of Athens was
erected.
Soon after, with the Athena Temple as the center, the 12
Temples and others were built. The whole area of all this was
eventually called, "Sanctuary."

Sanctuary is established!
