It was... unusual for Garnet to send Pearl on missions alone, but she’d assured her that this one was nothing that required assistance. A new group of Gems had landed on Earth but showed no signs of being hostile, or... even particularly active, mostly keeping to themselves in the woods. Nonetheless, the Crystal Gems still wanted to get in contact with them to make sure of their intentions and the consequences of any hostile actions.
Which was why Pearl approached the camp on her own, head held high and pushed aside the branches to look for the Sapphire supposedly in charge.
And instead met the eyes of someone she hadn’t seen in thousands of years.
