Snow muffled the world as Steven knelt by the ancient palanquin, Lion watching silently. Ice cracked, revealing a hidden glimmer. With a touch, pink energy surged, melting frost to free a pale blue gem. Steven’s joy was instant. “A gem! Let’s take it to the others!” He vanished in a swirl of mane-light. Inside the Crystal Temple, the mood shifted sharply. Pearl stared, trembling. “A Blue Court gem,” she breathed. Garnet’s gauntlets formed, tension spiking. “Put it down.” Steven stood firm, defending his find. Before Garnet could act, the gem pulsed, bathing the room in soft, ethereal blue-white light.
