The world is burning, and it needs its Diamonds.

On the world of Akoi, everyone has a gem they call their own. Every set of crystalline eyes glimmers with the light of destiny. Everyone has a story; everyone is on the path to make a difference.

But what happens when destiny turns to ash? A plague is spreading and changing the world for the worse, stealing away the stories, stealing away the light of life itself. And the only gem that can resist the Ashen Plague—the only gem that can [i]stop[/i] it—has been lost to the world for a thousand years. 

With no other options in sight, the first precious gems in a century have been trained for all of their lives to undergo the Pressure and become something more, but the procedure is incomplete and they are running out of time to fix it—so they must race against the clock to find the final components of the Pressure before the Ashen Plague burns away their last hope…

Themselves.
