Once, he stood at the pinnacle of Homeworld's might.
Known only as Gem Knight Facet-6F9L Cut-777XB, Y/N was not just another soldier-he was the finest of a rare and secretive caste: a line of Gems who defied tradition, forged in forms that mirrored something... different. Stronger. Sharper. Unyielding. Among them, he rose higher than any before him, entrusted with the ultimate honor: personal bodyguard to Pink Diamond.
He was her shield. Her blade. Her silence.
Until the day everything shattered.
When Pink Diamond fell to the blade of Rose Quartz, the universe as he knew it collapsed. Blame needed a target-and it found him. Branded a failure, punished beyond repair, Y/N was scarred across half his face, the damage made permanent by the will of the remaining Diamonds. A reminder. A mark of disgrace. A living symbol of failure.
Then came the darkness.
Locked away in a windowless void-no light, no sound, no end-he was left to exist... not live. Time dissolved. Identity faded. Only the echo of his failure remained.
Until fate intervened.
Pulled from oblivion by Yellow Diamond herself, Y/N is given a single purpose: travel to Earth and eliminate a traitor-Peridot Facet-2F5L Cut-5XG, a Gem who dared to defy Yellow Diamond's authority. A simple mission. A final chance at redemption.
But Earth is not what he expects.
Because Earth is where Rose Quartz once stood.
And more importantly... it is where Steven Universe lives.
Faced with a world filled with strange compassion, unfamiliar freedom, and a boy who sees something more in him than just a broken weapon, Y/N's mission begins to fracture. As old loyalties clash with new emotions, and buried truths about the Diamonds begin to surface, the once-perfect knight must confront a question he was never meant to ask:
What if he was never meant to obey... but to choose?
