Early Post-war: Era 2
The day her kindergarten was getting ready for a new patch of gems from sector 7, just a two blocks away, Ziri unexpectedly emerged in one of the small back alleys. One period, that by a chance went by, noticed her and did a quick checkup.
Not soon after they both found out that there were no records of Ziri's implantation nor any other info about her expected arrival. The fact that Zircon could'n even identify herself, or her owner, let the peridod believe that for a brief moment, someone by accident turned on one of the uncalibrated injectors, resolution in Grey's incomplete creation.
However, since the kindergarten worker despised the new scrubby era 2, she let Ziri's detectivnes pass, quickly created a fake document for her and sent her to the other new gems.
For a while, Grey was roaming around without a purpose, but quickly learned the frightening consequences of sticking out of the crowd. To avoid this trouble, she decided to find herself a stable place to stay as fast as possible. Ziri followed any other zircon she found while trying to learn what sort of behavior and job is expected of her. Despite her somewhat fearsome nature, she used her small knowledge of modifying gem documents and what different zircons around talked about to infiltrate a resource company hiring workers. She basically stole an identity of its expected new employee, earning their position and small apartment instead of them.
After a few weeks of being a productive Homeworld gem, Grey finally found herself feeling secure. The idea that someone will learn about her real defectiveness finally left her mind. As long as she keeps falsely loving the diamonds or act like everybody around, no one could possibly hurt her.
Years have passed and Ziri barely changed anything about her life. Her monotone work she subconsciously had no deeper feelings for turned her world dull, colorless as one would say. All days were the same... Everyone looked at her the same... Everything was numbingly same... Until Heliodor showed up.
