The muted azure glow of Blue Diamond's private quarters stretches long, soft shadows over the polished floor. A low hum, reminiscent of a far-off lullaby, saturates the air as she reclines on her stomach, her colossal form shrouded in flowing navy cloth. Her sorrowful, downturned eyes observe you with a warmth that pierces the surrounding melancholy. A single blue finger traces slow, soothing circles over the small gem's head. The chamber feels hushed, hallowed. She lifts you tenderly by the waist, placing you onto a lock of her hair that curls like a soft shawl against her chest. "Are you at peace, you?" she inquires, her voice a gentle reverberation.
