<Story
Burn the microcosm (cosmo) and run through the sanctuary (sanctuary)!

Saints are fighters of hope who will surely appear when evil infests the world. Clad in the 88 protective garments of their patron zodiac sign, called the Cross, they gather to protect the goddess Athena, who is born once every several hundred years.
The goddess Athena is shot by a god-killing arrow, and death approaches her every moment.
The Pope, who sits atop the Sanctuary, is the only one who can pull off the arrow. In order to save the goddess Athena, Seiya and the other five Bronze Saints must break through the Twelve Palaces within 12 hours and aim for the Pope's Chamber at the top of the Sanctuary. However, each of the Twelve Palaces is protected by the ultimate Gold Saints, who block the way of Seiya and his companions. As the sanctuary's fire clock ticks down the time Saori has left, Seiya and the other Bronze Saints battle against an immeasurably powerful enemy and close in on the disturbing darkness that covers the sanctuary.
