The Sanctuary Temple is a room in Sanctuary Fortress in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.

Description

Like all the temples on Aether, the temple is enormous. Very well structured with nice architecture in the distance, you can also see the stone above the temple walls that the Fortress is made of. It contains many ledges that Samus can use to make her way to the Energy Controller or any of the other ways out of the room. There are also two Dark Quad units in the room the first time Samus comes in. In later visits, they are replaced by 3 Mekenobites in later visits. There are also several posts of a giant mechanoid, later revealed to be a Quadraxis drone, but wasn't completed.

Importance

The temple was used for worship purposes like all temples, but during the War the Sanctuary Temple was used by O-Lir to build numerous mechanoids to aid the Luminoth in battle. After building countless Quads, O-Lir decided to build a massive robot to guard the temple, this would become known as Quadraxis. Two were supposed to be built, but only one was completed. The completed parts of the second are in the temple.

Trivia

  • Only the legs of the second Quadraxis, but the body and head module are nowhere to be found. This suggests that the Luminoth must have been defeated there before they could finish.
