Saint Seiya: Soul of Gold

The Secret of Yggdrasil Revealed! (1x2)

: 25, 2015

Leaving Aiolia to rest after his battle, Lyfia ventures out to find water or food, eventually falling unconcsious in the snow. As she recovers in an empty village, she meets a young boy who gives her something to drink. Shortly after, Mu arrives and informs her that he arrived a few days ago in the village which seemed like everyone had disappeared. Discussing a God Warrior with a dragon-shaped God Robe known as Nidhogg Fafner, Mu asks Lyfia to remain in the village and recover while he dealt with Fafner. Mu ambushes the God Warrior and is easily defeated by his whip before being taken for experimenting by Fafner who binds him to the roots of Yggdrasil. Realizing that Yggdrasil is the source of evil, Mu easily breaks free from the roots and retaliates against Fafner before regrouping with Aiolia and Lyfia, with Fafner escaping. Meanwhile, at an arena, Aldebaran witness Dohko fighting several Asgardian soldiers for sport. As they rendezvous at a bar, the Gold Saints discuss their revival in Asgard and that someone is playing with their lives. Before they have time for further talk, the God Warrior Tanngrisnir Heracles confronts them and challenge them. Leaving him to Aldebaran due to his previous loss during the last battle between Athena's Saints and Asgard, Dohko watches from the tribune as Aldebaran dons his Taurus Cloth. As Heracles attacks Aldebaran, the Gold Saint does not make a move which infuriates the God Warrior. Launching an attack at the civilians instead, Aldebaran moves in the way and deflects the attack. Remembering that he would usually leave the thinking part to his other comrades, Aldebaran burns his Cosmo and regrows his broken horn much to Dohko's surprise, overpowering Heracles for a brief moment before he retreats. During their battles, both Mu and Aldebaran are affected by the same Einherjar mark as Aioria prievously gained during his battle against Frodi. Finally, they all decide to journey to Yggdrasil and destroy it. In another part of Asgard, Milo tortures an Asgardian soldier for information about the God Warriors. He is surprised as the soldier mentions the sight of a Gold Saint.
