SAINT is the Star Army of Yamatai's division for intelligence gathering and analysis.
In YE 30 following the rise of the Motoyoshi Clan, Motoyoshi Misato was appointed Director of SAINT by Ketsurui Yui. Having several years of honored service at the head of the intelligence authority of the Motoyoshi Bakufu, Misato has promised to increased operational efficiency and effectiveness of SAINT, by increasing its influence in both internal and external operations. Misato was captured and assumed killed by the SMX while commanding the YSS Yuurei and was not restored until YE 32 at the request of Taisho Ketsurui-Motoyoshi Katsuko in the Seventh Fleet.
In YE 32 Tamahagane Mai a member of the Tamahagane Clan was appointed Director of SAINT by Ketsurui Yui. Mia's appointment came after a series of SAINT sponsored missions appeared to have been compromised.
Late YE 34 Tamahagane Mai chose to leave SAINT and the Star Army of Yamatai. Nakaide Shida was appointed as her replacement.
