| It is used to hold tournaments and fights to determine the wearer of the Clothes and a place for practice. This place is located very near to the foot of the Gold Zodiac.

The Fire Clock is a colossal clock tower with four dials that can be seen from anywhere in the Sanctuary. On each dial of the Clock, twelve fires are lit. Each flame represents an hour of each sign, from Aries to Pisces. The first flame will burn out in the first hour, and the second in the next and so on. In total, it takes twelve hours for before the last fire burn out.
The dials are only lit to mark or time important battles or events.

They align themselves over high peaks, ridges and slopes of the mountains, from the first sign to the last; namely, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces Temple. However, through wars and the passage of time, many Temples have fallen into decay.
All the Temples are connected by a single long flight of steps connecting the first Temple to the next and so on. These Temples also serve as forts, as they all have Gold Saints of the corresponding signs assigned to them. In addition to the Gold Saints manning the fort, the path and all around the Zodiac are blessed by Athena’s Cosmo, serving as holy barriers preventing lesser evils and teleportation between Temples. Thus, all those who desire to pass through them must only thread this path afoot. And due to such severe defense, no enemy without Athena’s blessing has ever reached the topmost part of the Sanctuary which they protect since the ancient time. Temple of the White Ram, Temple of the Golden Bull, Temple of the Twins, Temple of the Giant Crab, Temple of the Lion, Temple of the Maiden, Temple of the Scales, Temple of the Celestial Scorpion, Centaur Temple, Temple of the Mountain Goat, Temple of the Treasured Urn, Temple of the Twin Fish | 1 | 11 | Training Session... Thu Sep 29, 2011 9:03 pm Virgo Solomon | | Located almost at the top of the Sanctuary, just right below Athena’s Colossus, and above the Gold Zodiac. The audience chamber is located here. It is also the residence of the Pope and Athena, and therefore, the most protected part of the Sanctuary.
Aside from the protection provided by the Gold Zodiac, Pisces Saint also places Royal Demon Rose garden on the steps connecting Pisces Temple to the Pope’s Chamber to prevent intrusion. Unwitting enemies can end up dead here if they don’t realize the lethality of Royal Demon Roses’ fragrance.
In addition, there seems to be a means to bypass all the defense of the Gold Zodiac and reach this place. However, very few know of its existence.

At first glance, the Colossus itself does not seem to have any significance but for decoration and symbolizing Athena. However, it holds many secrets that only few alive now know of.
It is revealed later that the shield in the left hand of the statue is the Aegis Shield that can dispel any evil. And Nike in the right hand of the statue is, in fact, the Golden Staff that Athena herself caries at all times, calling forth miracles and bringing victories to her Saints. And all of them, including the body of the statue, are one large Cloth. It is Cloth of Athena itself sealed there since the ancient time. With her holy blood, the Cloth can be reawakened and reverted into its true form.
Furthermore, the placement of the statue has its significant meaning. It purposefully marks the Chamber of the Seal right underneath.

Only the Pope of each era is granted access to Star Hill. The passage to this place is ridden with lethal traps and mechanisms. From here, in Athena’s place, the Pope reads and interprets movements of the stars, predicting the future of the world.
| 0 | 0 | | | A watery prison overlooking from a wall of the tall cliff at Cape Sunion, used to imprison the captives of the war of the gods. It is said to be so strong that it needs someone of divine power to break free.
The barred window of the prison overlooks the sea, and is placed just above water level when the tide is low. When the tide is high, sea water can flow through the bars and overflow the confinement. Although this does not kill the prisoners, it is a very gruesome torture.
| 0 | 0 | | | The eternal resting place of the fallen Saints located somewhere in the lower parts of the Sanctuary, adjacent to the Gold Zodiac, and is also one of many ways through which one can reach the foot of the stairs to the Aries Temple.
