The gems need all the help that they can get fighting off the final boss (The Cluster) so after Malachite is fought off in the Abbysal Maw and Lapis becomes a party member they pass through two more islands of the now broken Earth, as the gravity is still somewhat keeping the earth together, biding their time and training until the Cluster decends back towards Earth to finish destroying all life. They find a ravine with lots of runes etched into the sides on  the first of the remaining islands and find Peridot having a mental breakdown there. After a bit of looking around and testing the runes, the Gems manage to fight off several Clusterspawn using said runes, which act as this area's boss and a training battle for using Runic Mode.
