## Synopsis

On a shattered far-future Earth, the Gems — crystalline beings, each named for their mineral and ranked by hardness — live under constant threat from the Lunarians, serene figures who descend from the sky to shatter them and carry the shards away as ornaments. Phos is the youngest and most brittle Gem, too fragile to fight, too restless to sit still. Assigned the humiliating job of compiling an encyclopedia, Phos begins a journey of transformations — each change granting new strength and stealing something irreplaceable. What starts as a sparkling adventure becomes one of anime's most quietly devastating meditations on identity and loss.
