Talk:The Cluster/@comment-30063602-20180708220207

I like that the Cluster had so many individual gem shards that the millions of shattered pieces of different personalities, in tne end, were enough to combine into one single full mind. Like, obviously, the smaller clusters had different gem shards forced together, so even if they were bigger  that a normal gem they still weren't whole, just random connected pieces, but the Cluster was so big that there were surely enough shards to make at least some whole gems, piece together at least a couple of personalities in the Cluster to take over the whole hivemind. It's said(I think) that it was made out of every single gem shard the Homeworld managed to collect in thousands, if not millions of years of rule, so at least some of them would be pieces of the same gem, if not coincidentally force togetner back into whole gems inside the Cluster. At least some of it is whole, it's not really a chaotic hivemind thingy.
