Buddy did... but a lot of people probably took his books to be a bunch of harmless fairy tales. It's just as well. Imagine if a cache of Gem weapons fell into the hands of organized crime. Or worse, some fanatical human attempted to hunt and kill the Gems, believing them to be threats to humanity. I have suggested before that some of the legends of creatures like Bigfoot, vampires, and werewolves could actually be people encountering rogue or corrupted Gems. Perhaps there is some validity to that theory....
