The Gemstone Hegemony is a faction referred to by [[Sorkis]] as the origin for a purple beam weapon employed in the battle of the [[Capital Temple]]. Little else is known of the hegemony, its society or its citizens, however their technology appears to be largely crystalline in nature. [[The First World]] has had contact with them across a period of approximately 800 years, in which the beam weapon was stolen from the hegemony. The Gemstone Hegemony is known to span a vast region of the multiverse on parallel Earths, where the dominant lifeforms are crystalline in nature.
Due to the effects of [[The Crushing Fist]], the Gemstone Hegemony has evacuated to the [[Orthogonal Reality]]. The Gemstone Hegemony determined the location of the [[Orthogonal Reality]] through trade with the [[Regret Demon]], which had determined the location of it through the use of one of [[Cristina Thompson]]'s shoes, which contained dirt from the reality.
