In the PS version of ''Rayman 2'', the Sanctuary's doors are hidden in an underwater cave inside [[Whale Bay]], known only to [[Carmen]] the Whale.  Unlike the N64/PC/DC counterparts, the PS version of the sanctuary is intact and indeed features a mixed environment of water and ice, though it is slightly more predominant on the water side.  The PS version of the sanctuary is much more like the later sanctuaries in either version.

===Finding Axel===
==Original version==
====''Rayman 2''/''Rayman DS''/''Revolution''====
===Phase 1===
Upon landing on a small, flat surface, [[Rayman (character)|Rayman]] is met by [[Murfy]]. Murfy explains how to slide.
...


Rayman then runs forward and begins to slip and slide on the steep, slippery, icy floors of the Sanctuary's floating ruins, occasionally passing through giant doors leading into frozen chambers.  Eventually Rayman arrives on level, non-icy flooring.
===Phase 2===


====PS version====
[[Carmen]] brings Rayman to a large grotto and explains that they have arrived at the Sanctuary of Water and Ice.  Rayman thanks Carmen and enters the sanctuary.
After progressing through the small sanctuary, Rayman arrives in a starlit void.
===Battling Axel===
On the other side of a large, water-covered gap, a muscular entity is seen floating in front of a waterfall.  This is [[Axel]], the Guardian of the Sanctuary of Water and Ice.  In the PS version, Axel explains that he was ordered by [[Polokus]] to guard the sanctuary against anybody, even Rayman.  In every other version, however, no conversation occurs between Rayman and Axel and the boss battle begins immediately when Rayman stops sliding.

After battling Axel (''see [[Axel]] for details''), Rayman proceeds across a row of [[Purple Lum|Purple Lums]] to reach the waterfall behind the guardian.  The waterfall curtains a large hallway.  At the end of the hallway is a grassy chamber with a thin staircase.  At the top of the stairs is a strange pillar.  As Rayman approaches the pillar, a beam fires from it and connects with Rayman's body.  The pillar moves backwards, and a [[Four Masks of Polokus|mask]] rises from an altar.  As Rayman picks up the mask he is warped out of the sanctuary and the pillar moves back.

===First Meeting with Polokus===
Rayman arrives on a moonlit cliff.  At the edge of the cliff is a pillar similar to the one in the sanctuary, but atop it sits [[Polokus]], the god of the [[Glade of Dreams]].  Polokus explains that he is away at the moment, but by traveling to the Sanctuaries and acquiring their corresponding masks Rayman can bring Polokus back.  Polokus takes the mask from the sanctuary and places it on his pillar, then warps Rayman back to the [[Hall of Doors]] (the [[Teensie Circle]] in the [[Minisaurus Plains]] in ''Revolution'').
