"In the lowest part of the ancient Cloud Arena, a hooded figure watched a sequence of encrusted mosaics on the walls of the building. The images featured Quartz Soldiers capturing and poofing dozens of Gems, who fled and screamed in terror. At the end of the mural, one could see the figure of the Moon Goddess, surrounded by several aggressors.
"Quiet, she accepted everything that came after her."
"On the floor, a ceremony of judgment and execution was described, where along with her followers, the Goddess was shattered by the terrifying hammer of an executioner in the presence of Three Diamonds. At this moment, the observer crouches and touches with turquoise-colored hands the figure of her tutor.
"Suddenly, tears of pain and sadness began to wet the floor of that place."
-"Mylady, it's about time ..." - from the doorway of the dome, another hooded being, of short stature and dark as night sky, called what she considered to be the most important creature in her life.
"Turquoise, the favorite student of the Moon Goddess, wipes her tears away, and alongside her official bodyguard, immediately heads for the Great Diamond Hall, a meeting center under the tutelage of the third sister, Blue Diamond.
Elegant and graceful, the Royal Pearls of Blue Diamond and Yellow Diamond receive their guest."
-"You shall not come in!" - With an air of superiority, the harsh Pearl of Yellow Diamond prevents the entry of Obsidian by considering her unworthy to be in the presence of the Homeworld Matriarchs. Turquoise then asks her protector to wait for her right there.
Tension rises as Obsidian starts looking directly into the eyes of the two Pearls, making them uncomfortable.
"Upon entering the Great Diamond Hall, Turquoise removes her hood and reveals an ethnic beauty, with large blue eyes like the sea, and long, flowing hair. She also removes the bandana that symbolizes her status as heiress to the Moon Goddess and the Gem in charge of the Lunar Sea Spire, in addition to the earrings she wore in her ears.
-"... My Diamond ... My purpose is to serve you ... What do you wish from this servant?"- As the law says, Turquoise introduces herself first to her matriarch, Blue Diamond. Extremely nervous, the Gem trembled in fear.
So then Blue Diamond proceeded:
"My Turquoise, you know that the rebel threat hinders the progress of our race, and that there are not many Gems suitable for important missions these days.
For your actions in favor of the stability of the empire, I decided to decorate you to the rank of "Knight of Diamond" with full support of the Court.
Your skills in aircraft piloting make you perfectly apt to share the rank of Air Force Commander alongside Amber."
-"But ... ma'am ... I'm not prepared for such responsibility ... I cannot do that!" - surprised by the revelation, Turquoise despairs.
-"...What did you say? How dare you reject such a noble task? How dare you deny my orders?" - Blue Diamond reacts very badly to the words of her subordinate, who has nothing to say in her defense except for suffering quiet.
-''Your Gems have the propensity to insolence.'' - says Yellow Diamond in the form of a hologram (*), which boasted in pride for never witnessing the desertion of even one of her servants.
-''You still seem not to understand whom you should obey. Pink Diamond's mercy is the only reason you're still alive, and that's how you thank her?
I could shatter you right now, just like I did with the damn traitor you called Master!" - More irritated by her sister's remark than anything else, Blue Diamond takes everything on Turquoise, which was weeping in desperation.
-''You are so annoying... Your hellish whining was the only reason I ordered the Inquisitors to stop torturing you that day.'' - Yellow Diamond recalls the worst moment of Turquoise's life - the day she was severely tortured while watching the execution of Moonstone, the Moon Goddess.
-''That's enough! Don't you think she had suffered already too much? Blue, she seems clearly sorry for her actions, stop that nonsense!'' - Still offended by a fact occurred hundreds of years ago, Pink Diamond complained about the attitude of her sisters.
-"Pink is right. Enough with the macabre show, I've got more important things to deal with.'' - The imposing voice of White Diamond ends the discussion.
-''... All right, I'll give you another chance. Now wipe away these tears and fulfill your duty!'' - Under the condition of unquestioning loyalty, Blue Diamond saves her Turquoise.
"Standing, the four Diamonds lay their hands on Turquoise's head, blessing it and forever binding her to the Order of the Knights of Diamond, something that could never be fled."
-''... My Honor... Is called Loyalty.'' - Still very shaken and awkward, Turquoise proclaims on her knees and bowing head the motto of the Knights of Diamond, while with her hands representing the symbol of the Great Diamond Authority, proof of commitment to the interests of Homeworld and its colonies.
-''A ship under my jurisdiction is waiting on the upper platform. Go..."- Pink Diamond is the first to bid farewell to Turquoise, who goes out in silence.
-''Tsc Tsc ... If we continue to accept this kind of behavior, rebellion will only grow bigger and bigger'' - pragmatic, Yellow Diamond saw it all as a big mistake.
-''Turquoise will not betray me.'' - responds Blue Diamond, serene.
-''You said the same about that Sapphire...'' - provokes the second sister as she disappears next to White and Pink Diamond.
"Upon leaving, Turquoise gives a strong and emotional hug to Obsidian, who has her face blushed out of small embarrassment, for not understanding her owner's sudden attitude."
