(Back at White Diamond's Palace, White is reviewing earths report when the Corrupt Vanguard appears.)
White Diamond: Corrupt Vanguard, you took quite sometime in completing your task. Did you find something of interest on Yellow and Blue Diamond?
Corrupt Vanguard: I did. Quite alot in fact. (She shows a recording of Blue and Yellow Talking to each other)
Blue Diamond: Lets talk to White and let us choose our own paths, our own hue.
Yellow Diamond: You suggest that we become... flawed?
Blue Diamond: No, not flawed. Something different, something unique, something I can't put into words.
Yellow: We already are unique. We stand apart from our lesser subjects. None would dare question us nor object. Those that do will face severe consequences, like shattering. That would be entertaining. Blue...we are what we are. And we only have purpose for our existence. There is nothing wrong with what we do. Why can't you understand that.
(Recording ends)
White Diamond: Well, well. This is something I could use for my plans.
Corrupt Vanguard: Plans, my Diamond?
White Diamond: What do you know about Homeworlds history?
Corrupt Vanguard: Well according to the first Holo Scripts, You arrived from the Unknown through the Infinite Corridor. This world was desolate and bare. Your will brought forth life from The Great Technology. From The Great Technology, you created Blue and Yellow Diamond. You shared your knowledge with them and taught them how to create gems. From there you began to build the Great Gem Empire, The Diamond Authority. We were created to serve you and your perfection, your will, your dominion. We expand your might by conquering entire worlds and any planetary system that pleases you.
White Diamond: Those words are like music to my ears. However, everything that you know, that all gems know, including Yellow and Blue, is a lie.
Corrupt Vanguard: A...lie?
White Diamond: A lie that serves its purpose. Would you like to know the truth?
(Corrupt Vanguard is unsure how to react. But curiosity draws to her)
Corrupt Vanguard: What do I get from knowing the truth, my Diamond?
White Diamond: Well for starters, I can return you to your former self. The mind link that bond us together, through me, shall be removed. All this I give if you serve me willingly as you were designed to.
Corrupt Vanguard: Very well. I accept.
White Diamond: Follow me. I have something to show you. (Corrupt Vanguard reluctantly follows White Diamond. They reach the lower levels of her Palace.) Consider yourself honored, Corrupt Vanguard. You are the only one who will pass through these doors. Not even Blue and Yellow has had that privilege.
(She places her hand onto a reader. The doors open. They walk inside. White Diamond activates a great machine. All the lights turn on. We see a Great Ship, The same one in the Steven Universe and the Great Diamond Conspiracy fanfic.)
White Diamond: Behold the Great Vessel. This is how I arrived from the Infinite Corridor. Now let me show you something else. (She commands the Ship) Activate Elysium. (A great hologram fills the room) I've only told everyone that I was the first to exist. This was not so. In the beginning there were the Ethereals, a race of illuminating beings that would later be known as the Diamonds. And it wasn't a mere handful of these beings, there were thousands of them. At the center of the Diamonds was the most powerful of all, Nova Diamond. I wanted to be as powerful as Nova Diamond. No, I wanted to be greater. But no matter how many times I challenged her, she would always win. She said that I was already strong and powerful in my own way. That challenging her was a waste of time and space. Those words would haunt me. I wanted to rule over the Ethereals, the Diamonds. It took sometime but I formulated a way to overthrow her. I began to sow discord amongst my fellow Diamonds. Planting rumors against each other. Slowly the discord began to grow into anger, jealousy and hate. I had achieved half of the plan. The Diamonds began to choose sides, something that Nova Diamond did not expect. I created a war. The battle lasted for countless millenniums. With every Diamond that fell, I absorbed their essence and added their strength as my own. It was now the two of us left. I was to take her power next. I was ready to become the new NOVA Diamond. Nova Diamond and I faced each other in a battle greater than those before us. I was almost defeated yet again. Nova Diamond was ready to finish me off. But something stopped Nova Diamond from shattering me. It was her virtues. She decided to show mercy upon me, her enemy. She left herself wide open. With one final attack, I shattered her gemstone. Now, I would be able to steal her powers. As I approached, Nova open the Infinite Corridor, divided her strength into three energies. One yellow, one blue and one pink. She told me that I wouldn't succeed and cast her powers into the void. With the last of her strength, she tole me that she forgave me for my actions. She warned me not to pursue my fate. Of course I couldn't care less. I took the Great Ship and began my search of the cosmos to see which planet concealed Nova's power. It took some time but I finally found this planet that harbored those 3 energies. However, despite my luck, I could only absorb a Diamonds power when a Diamond attains a physical form. Nova played a nasty joke on me, even after death. All I have to do now is wait until I could create a new Diamond for my Diamond Authority. Once that is done, I will take their power and become Nova Diamond. Eventually I created Blue and Yellow. All that is left is to create Pink Diamond. Now, with your help, I can make that possible.
Corrupt Vanguard: What do you mean?
White Diamond: You brought me valuable information regarding Blue Diamond. She wants to do things differently than Yellow. Yellow blindly follows my whim. This conflict is the seed of my plan. When enough energy is gathered from my colonies, I shall create Pink Diamond. But I will make her flawed.
Corrupt Vanguard: Why make a diamond flawed, my Diamond?
White Diamond: Why? To ensure that my plan succeeds. By being different will cause a sense of division. This division will be a distraction. Then that will be the moment of my true glory. Well, now you know the truth. Now the question is will you keep this knowledge to yourself or will you try and tell others what you have discovered?
Corrupt Vanguard: I couldn't say anything anyway, my Diamond. Our minds are linked after all. Anything I would think of you would know. But I am curious how this will all play out.
White Diamond: Well said. But for now we need to make plans for my victory celebration of Nexus Centuri.
Corrupt Vanguard: As you wish, I will assemble the best gems in design and fashion for this event.
White Diamond: Make sure that Blue and Yellow Diamond participate in this. Now go.
Corrupt Vanguard: As you wish, My Diamond. (White Diamond exits the vault with the Corrupt Vanguard. They go their separate ways) Well things just got a whole lot interesting.
(Back on Earth)
Chieftain Myung: Can you really travel to this broken world? How?
Ha-Nuel: A spell, a very ancient spell. One from first generation of magic spells created from the first mages over 700 years ago. I was lucky to stumble across it.
Tajeo-Jun: How does it work?
Ha Nuel: This travel spell works from the memory of the wielder, or those around them. I already prepared the things necessary to preform the spell. But there is one thing I still require.
Chieftain Myung: What would that be?
Ha-Nuel: The spell can only be used once, forward and back. But I must be protected. That is where you come in, Tajeo. You are one of the very few legendary warriors left in existence. Would you accompany me as a body guard on our journey?
Tajeo-Jun: Sure. I wouldn't mind seeing whats out there. But for a journey to a mysterious world we have never been to, I may not be enough to protect you. My lord chieftain, we should hire Gwang and his men as an escort for this mission.
Chieftain Myung: Gwang and his men have plagued travelers, those who earned their wealth, with raids and pillaging. I plan to execute them.
Tajeo-Jun: May I advice an alternative to...execution.
Chieftain Myung: Do tell.
Tajeo-Jun: Let us employ him into our service. When the mission is complete we give him and his men their freedom. I am not saying this because he is a legendary warrior like myself, but people like him are bound to a code of honor. The warrior way. A fair price. What say you my lord?
Chieftain Myung: Go then. If he is willing to assist us..., I will grant him and his men full pardon.
Tajeo-Jun: Thank you my lord.
Ha-Nuel: I will begin the incantation for the ritual. I suggest that you hurry.
(Tajeo Jun nods at her and leaves. She places four stones, four candles, incense sticks, one small bottle of Sophick Mercury, which she uses to make a circle. She sprinkles ground up Jade dust and volcanic obsidian. Tajeo arrives at the prison.)
Gwang: Well look who it is.
Tajeo-Jun: My lord, Chieftain Myung, gives you a choice for you and your men. Serve us for a mission to an unknown world beyond the stars.
Gwang: We know all about that. We saw it from our prison cell.
Tajeo-Jun: You can stay in here and rot, let the world forget you, or earn a clean slate a new beginning and return to your families. There's not much time to decide.
(Gwang thinks for a moment)
Gwang: Men, what do you think?
Bandit 1: Well, were constantly away from our families.
Bandit 2: I haven't seen my newborn son or my daughter yet.
(The bandits all agree)
Gwang: We serve for our freedom.
Tajeo-Jun: A noble decision. Guards, remove their chains. (The guards do so) Come.
Gwang: Before we go, how do I know that you are not lying?
Tajeo-Jun: I give you my word. One Legendary Warrior to another. That should rest any doubt.
(They enter the Great Hall.)
Tajeo-Jun: My lord, they have accepted.
Chieftain Myung: Gwang, you will not regret this. Ha-Nuel, you may begin.
(She speaks the portal incantation in the old tongue.)
Ha-Nuel: Oh Ancient spell of times past, heed our call. Grant us passage from our memory wall. From our memory reveal the way. To this broken world that appears in dissary. Let nothing prevent us from entering in that place. Reveal the Corridor through time and space.
(A portal starts growing in the Great Hall, the Infinite Corridor is open.)
