Once there were four kingdoms: the White Kingdom, the Pink Kingdom, the Yellow Kingdom, and the Blue Kingdom. Together they all stood side by side and made up the land of Diamonthia.

The most powerful of these kingdoms was the Yellow Kingdom, but in spite of its power, it couldn't compare to the Blue Kingdom. Even if it wasn't the most powerful kingdom, the Blue Kingdom was a beautiful place. The gems who lived there were kind, graceful, and cheerful.

The Yellow Kingdom and the Blue Kingdom had never been the best neighbors. The Yellow Kingdom, taken over with greed, had always wanted to claim the beautiful Blue Kingdom for their own. They had been at war for many years.

The Blue Kingdom was ruled by its beloved queen, Blue Diamond. She had two lovely daughters. Her youngest daughter was a small gem named Peridot. She had blonde hair that she always kept up in the peculiar shape of a diamond. There was a triangular, green peridot gem on her forehead. Her skin was of a green shade slightly lighter than her eyes.

Blue Diamond's eldest daughter was a beautiful gem named Lapis. Lapis kept her dark-blue hair at a short length but was still long enough to flow in the gentle breeze. Her skin was of a light blue, and her eyes were a royal blue that shined like the stars above. There was a lapis lazuli gem in the shape of a teardrop on her back.

With Lapis being the eldest child of Blue Diamond, she would be the one to take the throne when she would come of age. Lapis, however, was never to thrilled to take the throne some day. She felt like there would be something more to her life than being an over-glorified royal.

Lapis and Peridot were the best of sisters. They never fought and they told each other everything.

Life was pretty good for the royal family and all the inhabitants of the Blue Kingdom. That is until something or rather someone created an interference with the plans for peace. And that is where our story begins.
