Well, that's great, a light for adaptability. If you want to keep the seven lights scheme, you should definitely keep that. However, for the colour wheel system, orange has to disappear as an entity.

In the colour wheel, we have three positions for the primary colours of light (green, red and blue), three for their complementaries (magenta, cyan and yellow) and then there are the intermediate positions for the other colours (the oranges between yellow and red, the pinks between red and magenta, the purples and violets between magenta and blue, and so on). I think that it would help you to fix the combinations and the relations between the lights. For example, as mixing the complementaries produces white light, they may potenciate each other when used together.

What Kind Of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway? I have checked her page, though, and she is a very well balanced character.

WOW, it's a great story, you have advanced a lot!!! Does Tonguestone appear in the story or you don't know yet? It is a great explanation of the origin of the spectral magic. So he was the first to use spectral magic and after him it became available for all Gemkind (sort of like Kaguya in Naruto). But how did Prisms originate?

Yeah, I think so, it would be difficult for them to keep up with their duties. Also, your explanation of the lights seems to explain it as a power external to the existence of Gemkind, while the Goddesses are directly connected with it. Gems with extrasensorial capabilities like Lepidolite or kinesis like Lapis are considered gifted by the Goddesses, and are trained as Bejewel Priestesses in order to learn how to channel and control their powers.

I think that the goddesses are sentient beings, not only sentries of power, directly tied to the nature of Gems themselves. Thus, they'd see the Lights as some kind of invaders, something unconnected and foreign to Gemkind, and they would probably reject it or "refuse" to "collaborate" with it. However, if it helped one of their protegés, they would probably collaborate.

I am actually trying to drift from the colour connection in order to have some variety and flexibility, so I don't think that the colours have a direct connection to their powers. It is just the way they decided to manifest in our universe.

But their other attributes may help to sync Goddesses and Lights, regardless of their colour. For example, the Red Light and the Sun-Forger Goddess (whose colour happens to be red) would sync greatly. The Blue Light and the Wandering Comet Goddess (WIP) would also sync, as they both have power over travels, despite the latter's yellowish hue.
