"I was one of the most important Gems on Homeworld before I died during the First Gem War. The Diamond Council took me and fused my Gem with the Gem of a mentally unhinged, cannibalistic general who had also fallen named Apatite. I was the core of this Cluster fusion that became known as White Diamond. Anything Apatite ate, for example, ended up in my stomach. That is how I got Pearl's shards-and, during my imprisonment inside White Diamond, I worked on developing many projects, including Thorium. You must understand that I did not want to be part of White Diamond, and that the truth was kept hidden from everyone, even the other members of the Diamond Authority."
