| Here is a character
that's seldom acknowledged, if acknowledged at all. In fact, this is
the first page ever to feature her, as far as I've seen.
The Cauldron Guardian appeared to Sailor Moon after the destruction of Chaos in the manga vol 18. Usagi and the others (yes, all the "killed" senshi are here and free!) were still at Zero Star Sagitarrious, still inside the Galaxy Cauldron. About as big as the fairy version of Queen Serernity, the Guardian sprite called herself the Guardian Cosmos, protector and holy spirit of the Cosmos Seed, and said she too had once had a starseed as brilliant as Sailor Moon's. She thanked Sailor Moon for freeing her and all the other seeds, and offered to let Usagi and the other free as their true star forms, beings of light. Usagi politely refused, wanting to stay with her friends, in her own body- "However hard it may be, we want to live these lives!"- and with a startling blast the Guardian sent them all back to Earth safely. Before she was fully gone though, Usagi noticed something about the Cauldron's blast- "The Guardian...is Chaos?!" she cried. If that's so, then all the villains the senshi have faced, from Queen Beryl to Galaxia, were caused merely by the corruption of this one little Guardian sprite! Usagi awoke in bed with Mamoru, the day before their wedding. Chaos, Galaxia, the Guardian, all faded away into memories on this most important day ^_^..... |
