In the days of ancient legend, when gods roamed the earth and brought with them suffering upon mortals, there was one deity, who possessed the power to annihilate. Athena, the goddess of warfare and wisdom. However, instead of succumbing to the temptation of destruction, she chose to shield us from harm. Brave and valiant knights from all corners of the world pledged their loyalty to her cause, as they learned to harness the celestial energy known as Cosmo. With fists raised high towards the heavens, they engaged in epic battles against those who sought to bring about Athena's demise. As time passed, the gods retreated into the realm of mythos, fading from the forefront of human consciousness. Yet, exactly 18 years ago, Athena was reborn as a benevolent child. A knight adomed in resplendent golden armour sacrificed his life to safeguard and together they descended upon the earth. It was in that moment that humanity discovered her, cradled in the knight's embrace, a mortal girl imbued with the might of a goddess. Since that fateful day, humanity has embarked on a quest to seek out a new generation of knights. These chosen few will assume the mantle of the Knights of the Zodiac, charged with the sacred duty of protecting Athena and the earth itself.
