Or, alternatively, Desert Glass is an old veteran survivor of the Gem War, an ally that made themselves into a power source for a device that could build fortifications and defenses for the Crystal Gems. Or, maybe Desert Glass was punished by the Diamond Authority for some offense and was made into a power source for said device.

It could also be that Rose was aware of Desert Glass' location and such, and sent Lion to guard it because she knew the Crystal Gems, and, by extension, Steven, would come for it. Lion meets Steven and it looks like happenstance. Therefore, Rose KNEW of Desert Glass, but didn't KNOW her. Get me?
