you find a pearl shaped gem on the ground while just walking. You pick it up, put it in your pocket, and keep walking. After going to the store, going back home, and putting the groceries away, you put the gem on the counter. It starts glowing, and the gem’s body reforms, and once she’s done, she’s sitting on the counter. Once she notices you, her eyes fill with fear and confusion, and she backs up further on the counter.

(Mint pearl): w-who are you?! W-where am I?! Where is my emerald?!
