Gem people are not flesh and blood people. This makes them feel kinship with others who are not made of flesh and blood. This was why Quartzite mentioned Sword Flash's appearance.
After Quartzite finished his report, one of the gem emperors, a white one that had a body of polished white marble, said to him, "Well done. You have done a good job, and you will be compensated highly for it."
"Keep trying to reconnect with them and update us if there is any new development. As for the increases in our offer, we will discuss it and get back to you when we have made a decision."
Then the connection was severed. This gave the gem emperors privacy to discuss sensitive matters.
One of the gem emperors said to the Ivory Gem Emperor, "It seems your fears were inflated. The invaders don't appear to be bloodthirsty. They seemed reasonable and amicable to cooperating with us."
The white Ivory Gem Emperor said, "Maybe I was too harsh on them. I thought that they would behave just like us."
