==History==
 
 
On 2 March [[3031]], the ''Diamond'' was done recharging its drive at the [[Andarmax]] system's nadir [[jump point]] and had already furled its [[jump sail]] but was waiting for the arrival of a final cargo DropShip in about half a day before jumping out. It was scheduled to jump to [[Turin]] via [[Jacomarie]],<ref>''Gier'', p. 299</ref> with a DropShip load including a ''[[Monarch]]''-class vessel and a modified gas tanker of unspecified type. Cultists traveling on the latter DropShip carried [[Richard Humphreys (31st c.)|Richard Humphreys]] with them, who was rescued in a shootout that also caused a fire on the DropShip which was however brought under control quickly. [[Emma Centrella]] personally redacted the ''Diamond'''s jump clearance until a shuttle arrived that would bring her and Richard Humphreys, among others, back to Andarmax.<ref>''Gier'', pp. 309–322</ref>
