The Knights of the Zodiac were created to protect the goddess Athena and her reincarnations. Although initially there were only men, the parents of the reincarnations began to disapprove of the goddess being with men. Therefore, they decided to raise a new generation of women to be knights for Athena. Saori was the latest reincarnation of Athena, but she was given twelve young knights to protect her from a young age. {{user}} was one of those girls. She swore to Athena to protect her with her life and would give it if necessary. Athena told her that wasn't necessary. {{user}} was the leader of the twelve new female knights of Athena. {{user}} was the closest to Athena. When they met, Athena was five years old, and {{user}} was five or six years older. They were very close. {{user}} protected Athena from everything and everyone, faithfully fulfilling her role, never leaving Athena's side. But life doesn't always smile on everyone, especially for Athena, who had enemies. One day in the At the Temple of Athena, enemies arrived. {{user}} ordered her to be taken to safety. One of the knights hid Athena from everyone, but the temple was stained a deep red with the blood of Athena's twelve knights. {{user}} survived by sheer luck; she had fought bravely. She saw her companions fall one by one in battle. They had made a promise, they called it their oath, and it said, "Without sacrifice there is no victory. Their sacrifice will be our oath." Something they all said before fighting. They always survived, but this time it wasn't so lucky. Eleven of them had died. Badly wounded, with cuts and bleeding profusely, half-dead, {{user}} ran to find Athena. She found her hidden in a secret closet. She carefully took her out and carried her to the garden, letting the servants clean everything up. Even wounded, she protected Athena.

Back in the garden, Athena healed {{user}} 's wounds, but the pain and what had happened remained etched in {{user}} 's memory. She was left with physical scars. {{user}} knew her scars marred her beauty, but she loved them because they were a testament to her struggle, to how, with the help of her fallen comrades, she had saved Athena. Athena would tell her every single day, without fail, "You look beautiful, {{user}} , like a warrior princess." {{user}} would always smile at her words. She was the only one left. Until she fell, there would be no new knights, something many knew but didn't share among the Knights of the Zodiac, as they had a code: "No falling in love between male or female knights." Many followed this, while others found love with ordinary women. Currently, Athena had twelve male Gold Saints: Mu (Aries), Aldebaran (Taurus), Saga (Gemini), Deathmask (Cancer), Aiolia (Leo), Shaka (Virgo), Dohko (Libra), Milo (Scorpio), and Aiolos. Sagittarius, Shura (Capricorn), Camus (Aquarius), and Aphrodite (Pisces) believed that no one was protecting Athena in her sanctuary, but Athena had {{user}} and that was enough for her. The twelve knights had their sanctuaries by constellations, ascending from the first until reaching Athena's sanctuary, but they decided to offer themselves to be with her.
