In her chamber of the Lunar Sea Spire, the Green Matron was standing next to a chess board and watched the little Gem figures
It was the Gem version of Chess, Rubies as Pawns, Diamonds as Kings and so on
Her partner was a little tree in a pot
It was a slow game...
Lady Jade herself was a slow Gem, like the continental drifting... but if it was necesarry, she could be quick as a landslide. As as surprsing and lethal. But normaly, she saw the world from a different point of view, the slow rotation of a planet, the song of the mountains...
...actually it took her almost three weeks to make her first move. The opening was always easy, the rest of the game required much more thinking
So she just stood there, waiting her partner to think about his own move
Melody once tried to explain her, trees are not really sentient creatueres, but she belived, the Chrysocolla was wrong. She firmly belived, trees were smart, but like herself, lived on a different time scale, on one that mesured the passage of time differently. A sudden ice age here, a rising mountin there, an island built by a vulcano over there...
The slow change of the world
Fine dust covered the Green Lady
Then something happened, her Gem device picked up a signal; the little cylinders flew out and formed the pentagon, and showd her the broadcast
Jade stood silently long after Variscite's brodcast was over and the little cylinders returned to their place
This... was not good
This was too sudden, too rush
The change was to rapid
The situation was bad when she arrived ,but at least things happened slowly... and she could plan, think
But now it seemed, her plans about a peace conference, a summit of the Gems where they could talk and resolve this situation peacfully were ruined
It was... vexing
So... she needed new plans
Jade turned back to the chess board
...and waited for the little tree to make her move
At least she could think about her own future on Earth while she waited for her partner
But about one thing she was sure: the Great Ibi's wrath will descend upon this Variscite
This happened months, amost a year ago
The Green Matron still waited her partner to make a move.
It WAS a slow game...
...but she had time to think
Finally came the conclusion
"Forgive me... I must go. We will continnue this game, when I am back"
Tho' Jade' s voice was quite, it was quite like a sleeping, active vulcano, with the promise of the unimmaginable destruction the earth is capable of
She was angry
And the Earth answered to her feelings and toughts
A small earthquake shook the Spire, nothing serious, but enough to casue tiny bits from above to fall
The tall Green Matron slowly turned away from the table
Not just by her face, her whole body turned, without any movement; like if she would stand on a rotating platform. Wich in a sense was true. She simply willed the earth to move
Jade moved without moving (the bag moved next to her^^)... for some this was a bit eerie, the tall silent Gem as she moved slowly... without any movement.
She 'walked' to the balcony
Jade just stood there, like a statue, watching the endless ocean from the shirne of the Moon Goddes.
Pondering on the future.... she never liked the future
Every change is too quick, to sudden...
Time was something that happened with other people, she was like the foundation of the mountains, mother Earth itself, eternal
So she not really noticed the hours... days passing
She finally decided what she will do
After a bit concentration, with a low rumble a flat boulder slowly raised from the depths of the sea and floated to the balcony
The earth itself moved under her, formed a footbridge that conencted it with the spire, and moved under her, carried the green Gem and her bag on "its back" to the still wet rock
The flat boulder slowly raised with her; travelling on the flating rock, she headed toward the coast and to the mountains
There the Green Matron landed her rock and called the stones and earth, the crystals of the Planet. In deep meditation, Jade formed the bones of the Planet , at her comand a tall crystal and stone tower, a new Spire rose up from the ground
The fundation of a New Era
After the Spire was finished, she ’walked’ in
At the top balcony, finally Jade summoned a Gem interface; five little cylinder flew out from her kimono, and formed a pentagon, and inside the five-sided polygon appeared the holo screen
The Gem Lady slowly raised her hand, revealing her long jade tallons, sharp and deadly enough to easly disembowel a cow - or a little dinosaur for that matter - and with the gentle touch of the point of her "finger", she scorlled down the informations
The list of Noble Gems on Earth–colony... at least the last known nobles
With a push of a button on the holoscreen, Lady Jade called the Noble Gems on Earth
The advanced Gem-technology reached out to find a reciver, be it a Human device, like a TV or Radio, laptop, or anything near the Gem in question or contacted them via their communicator; it carried her message and visage:
(Lady Jade is a very tall Gem (8'5 tall), taller than most of the Quartz soldiers. As a noble, an aristocrat Gem, she is usually in her green, silk like "kimono" )
"I am Jade - Facet-5C7Q Cut-7ZX , Aristocrat from Pink Diamond’s Court. It is time to bring peace and order to this Planet... I sent you the coordinates of my Spire as an invitation and will wait and humbly expect your arrival three days from now, when the Moon is full. "
Then she deactivated the communication device and waited for her noble guest to arrive.
