They're interesting. Not only have our very being has been destroyed and condensed into these gems, but they are able to manifest solid light and change the very essence of existence. Gems moving plants and the earth, dominion over the seas, able to change their shape... it's truly fascinating. I used to be very attuned to ether, so to find that energy gone and replaced with gems only for certain individuals draws me to them.
