Amber balked at Tourmaline's question. [color=f7941d]"I-I was raised above my peers at the Amber Farm, because of my rarity. I was told I would become a regional governor...of sorts..."[/color] Amber shrank, realizing that any authority she was supposed to have couldn't be validated with the Diamond Authority absent. [color=f7941d]"I got in here by touching a panel outside and the door opened. And there were traps."[/color] Amber confirmed Serendibite's suspicions.

Then the Ruby entered, putting Tourmaline on edge, but Serendibite seemed to be diplomatically trying to defuse the situation. [color=f7941d]"You're not with the Authority, or the Rebellion?"[/color] She asked quizzically, [color=f7941d]"You know what? I don't really care anymore. I've been wandering alone for so long, I'm just happy to see other gems."[/color] Amber kept an eye on Tourmaline, who seemed to be with the Authority, and who seemed to actually hold knowledge and considerable rank.
