The Gem World is a place in the Astral that I've been attempting to reconnect with from my childhood. I used to travel there a lot when i would "day dream" or "Zone out" as my family liked to refer to it. The Gem World is, to me, a personal Safe Haven where I can retreat from the troubles of Daily Life.
Being that it is in the Astral it has its own Court that rules over this part of the land known as The Jeweled Court. You may be familiar with other known courts that reside in the Astral, The Seelie and Unseelie courts of the Fae. They are similar, but the Jeweled Court are not Fae. The would technically exist in the same realm, but on different planes, like two parallel worlds.
The Jeweled Court are their own beings and are closely linked to the elements. They are Immortal and each of them rules over a different aspect of The Heart (what they call their magic.) They teach that everything has A Heart within it and by drawing on certain things you can obtain threads of that type of Magic to work with. The Emerald God is the Keeper of The Heart; he ultimately took it within himself and used it to shape The Gem World when it was first created.
The Gem World is very large and very temperate, large lush forests cover vast expanses of the landscape with few mountains and volcanoes. Its oceans are home to hundreds of thousands of fish and species unknown to us. The Emerald God is known to reside at the Heart of the Forest, where he first encountered The Heart before the Gem World was created.

The Heart is what The Jeweled Court refers to as Magic. It runs through everything in The Gem World as "Everything has A Heart." The only way to really describe what The Heart looks like when not being used would be like a web of slow moving tendrils of glitter slowly snaking along the ground. The Heart can be channeled and depending on what type of Magic you're using the color will change. The Heart is channeled through the hands and out of the palms, a physical manifestation of the can be seen in the castors Aura. Aura colors depend on the type of magic being used.
