A great amount of time has Past since the emeralds emerged from the kindergarten with the extra help in workforce purple diamond was able to begin construction on a spacecraft to leave this did world, however resources were scarce on this planet.
Thankfully, purple diamond was able to get more help from the kindergarten as more gems begin to emerge from it.
Topazes and Quartzes have come out of the kindergarten and was immediately put to work.
Every single one of the gems, under purple diamonds rule, moved with purpose and complete their tasks without fail.
A system of promotion was installed into the Royal court of purple diamond, any gem can rise in status as long as they put in the work that justifies a increase in rank and status.
In the future, any gem within purple diamonds, court, can rises high enough that gem will be able to rule the planet, in purple diamonds name.
This new system simply revolves around achievements and credit, a gem that achieves enough, achievements, or credits, can eventually move up in status from a simple engineer to a elite.
With this new system in place, purple diamond already began to fill his inner court with capable gems.
So far he already has three generals one Topazes and two Quartzes, one of them is a Amethyst and the other one is a Ocean jasper.
Ocean jasper is a toll gem with blue colored skin, with pink stripes around her arms, tall and mean with her signature weapon, a battle ax.
The Amethyst that was naturally dark purple and her signature weapon was a pair of spiked gauntlets.
Topazes Who is big just like the other two, but her signature weapon was a battle staff which she wheeled it with a amazing skill.
These three gems make up the military command of purple diamonds army they were the best of the best they came out of the kindergarten, purple diamond is impressed with them, and knows that they will not fail him.
Two more individuals filled the spot of the inner council. One was an emerald known as XGK23, she was given the title of shipmaster, who is in charge of all the shipbuilding in the future, as well, as commander and chief of the fleet, second only to purple diamond.
The last person of the inner council was indigo Agate That was in charge of the laws regulations and currency. She made sure that the Empire that purple diamond wishes to build stays running economically.
Within his new growing empire, purple diamond only had 7000 Gems under his command, with only three types of gems, Topazes, emeralds and Quartzes was all he can get right now.
However, that is all that he requires at the moment, as well as the construction of many ships have already been underway, but it will be much time before they are completed since most of the time his servants are busy trying to find resources to build them.
the best way to do it is the go with the plan that some of his emeralds presented to him by constructing a space elevator they could send up teams up to into space and mine from the local asteroids if there is some.
They have only one working ship with no FTL, so it should work for asteroid mining to get the rest of their Almada up and running.
Using his power to create purple crystals from physical matter, the construction of the space elevator was slow very very slow however, purple diamond eventually, was able to do it, creating the elevator, which allowed his gems to start sending people up to collect resources from the nearby asteroids which they were lucky enough. There was some around within the system.
However, with no FTL capabilities, the process of mining the materials and bring them back to base would be extremely time-consuming thankfully, purple diamond has been very patient up until now he can wait a little bit longer so that his gems can do the work it thay is need and it would serve no purpose to be inpatient now.
the resource gathering began as each time the resource gathering ship returned, bringing in necessary resources to make more ships until eventually 25 ships were made to speed up the resource gathering of the nearby asteroids.
This went on for a very very very long time as the main capital ship of purple diamond was slowly been built that would be able to house every single one of his gems and all the equipment that they would require.
Slowly, the new starship took shape. It was both crude and marvelous piece of improvised technology.
The vessel itself was completely massive, as well as having a wide variety of weaponry, both of energy and kinetic in nature.
With his patience rewarded purple diamond was eager to get off his dead world finally, leaving only one thing left to do was to collect all the necessary equipment and resources that were left on the planet to make sure nothing was left behind, including the damaged injectors that could be used for recycled parts.
Once this was done every single gem was recalled, and began to fill the new vessel that was named, The Ark.
With everyone on board, purple diamond initiated the launch sequence which results in the ship firing off, it's powerful rockets with tremendous force. It lifted off the ground and shot up through the air as it made its way into space.
Some of the armor plating was getting a little too hot and was slowly melting away. However, this spacecraft has so much armor. It's simply didn't matter what little armor that melted off was irrelevant.
Before long, the arc made its way into space once there the entire crew of the arc celebrate there success and soon started to plot their course out of the system. The only downside is that they still have no FTL however, since none of them age, they can simply travel through space until they find another world.
With a single command, purple diamond, controlled his vessel, and moved it out of the system, leaving behind his birthed world, and hoping for a better future for everyone under his command.
thus the ark sailed towards its new future in the vast void of space for better, or for worse, the universe shell known purple diamond.
