“He insinuated that the Moon Gem didn’t belong to Lila,” he told me. “As we found out, the purpose of the

of the gem was to lock away Lila’s birth powers because it was too much for an infant to handle. It was supposed to be given to her when she came of age… her blood would activate the gem and her powers would be restored.
