"He did not tell us everything but Fafner did admit that the poison was a back-up plan he had in mind when Andreas was still the representative of Odin. He would use it if needed against anyone who he believed would be against his plans." Frodi explained.
"Did he admit if he had someone to help carry out this plan?" Surt asked.
"He did not but for him to know exactly how many of the Gold Saints were affected while still being locked away...That is enough for us to believe that he did have help." Sigmund answered.
"We will continue with Fafner later." Hilda said. "Right now, we must do what we can to continue to support the remining Gold Saints."
The God Warriors went into the room and were worried upon the sight.
The five Gold Saints that were still under the influence of the poison were nearly enveloped by the black glow of their cosmo. Their heads were the only parts of their cosmo that had yet to change.
Aldebaran, Dohko, Shura, Shaka and Aphrodite looked to be using the last of their energy and cosmo to help their commrades. The strain was evident on their faces as they continued to do what they could to slow down the draining of cosmo.
Time has nearly run out. Frodi thought. Lyfia, please hurry. They cannot last much longer.
The young warrior watched in horror as the black glow now slowly spread to the last of the golden light.
Their cosmo is nearly completely drained! Frodi thought. They will not last much longer.
The God Warrior wanted to rush foward and offer his own power to try to help however he could. But Asgardian power was different from that of the saints and Frodi wasn't sure if his power would be of much help to a nearly drained Gold saint.
Lyfia, please hurry! Frodi thought.
He believed Odin must have heard his prayer because he suddenly felt two familiar and power cosmo that seemed to be growing closer and closer.
He then heard a distant shouting before rushing over to the closest window. A wave of relief washed over Frodi when he saw Saga, Aiolos and Lyfia running through the courtyard toward the palace.
And it appeared Lyfia was holding onto something as is for dear life.
"They're back!" he announced.
"Frodi, will you be able to help DeathMask so I can help make the remedy?" Aphrodite asked.
The God Warrior didn't waste a second as he rushed over and flared his own cosmo to feed to the Cancer saint. He could right away feel his power slowly draining as he gave it to DeathMask but he continued to hold steady.
Aphrodite left the room as quickly as his tired body was able to.

Lyfia panted as she continued to run alongside Saga and Aiolos, holding the Hearts Desire flower closely.
She had been afraid when she had reached for the flower at first but had quickly put her fears aside as she placed great confidence in her feelings toward Aioria.
When she had seen that she had not turned to stone, Lyfia couldn't help the joy she felt inside of her. Her feelings for Aioria were pure and so were his toward her.
Having gotten the flower, she had quickly rushed back to Saga and Aiolos and they were escorted back to the entrance of the Underworld by Charon who was more than happy to recieve the remaining gold coins he was promised.
Now that they were back in Asgard, the three rushed back to the palace knowing that time was of the essence.
They made it through open doors and hurried to the medical wing where the court doctor and Aphrodite were waiting.
"You have the flower?" the doctor asked.
Lyfia hurried forward and presented the beautiful flower to the saint.
"We must hurry." Aphrodite declared. "The others need the remedy quickly. Their cosmo is nearly drained entirely."
The Pisces saint took the flower and he and the doctor hurried to another room. This left Saga, Aiolos and Lyfia to hurry to the room where the others were.
She gasped when she saw how darkened the light of their cosmo had grown since they had left to the Underworld. Nearly their entire bodies were enveloped by the black glow and Lyfia knew that it was not long before it completely took over.
"I did not think it would have spread so fast." Saga muttered. "We are lucky to have arrived with enough time for them to recieve the medicine."
Lyfia kept her eyes foused on Aioria. His face was covered with sweat and he seemed to be in pain. His look was mirrored on the other saints affected by the mysterious poison and Lyfia could only hope that they would be given the remedy in time.
