   #1 - The Crossroad of Fate! The Enigma of Gemini!

   S1:E3111/4/2012

   Dragon Ryuhou arrives to the Temple of the Twins, being greeted by a strange, peaceful atmosphere and talking animals. Gemini Paradox, the guardian of the temple, gently welcomes the young Saint and exposes to him her motives for her allegiance to Mars, and reminisces about her past. Disagreeing with Paradox's amoral perspective, Ryuhou engages her in battle, managing to overpower the gentle Paradox. Much to his surprise, she emerges full of hate and with no trace of her previous loving personality. Meanwhile, Aquila Yuna arrives to the Cancer Temple.
