50. Entry 50: Bismuth

*Entry #50: Bismuth

I... I don't have much words. It's not that this discovery is lame; it's that it opens a door to a lot of questions. I found out there was a Crystal Gem that was long-lost since before the war ended. Her name is Bismuth, and she was held dear by the Crystal Gems who knew her. But that's not the discovery that was shocking; it's why she was lost in the first place. She was like a blacksmith, building weapons for the Crystal Gems to use against their enemies, but when she secretly showed Rose Quartz a lethal weapon that Rose didn't approve of, they fought and Rose was forced to poof and bubble her. Steven found Bismuth's gem in Lion's mane and freed her. It was a beautiful reunion for the other Crystal Gems as well, but when Bismuth the same weapon she offered Rose, he realized how dangerous the situation was and had no chose but to poof her. This time, he kept her in the chamber where the other bubbled Gems are. I have a feeling that's not Rose's only dark secret though. If Rose kept a dear friend hidden from the others, what else could she have hidden?
