Did You Know

 Did you know legend has it that diamonds sprang from thunderbolts? Another diamond legend is that they fell from the sky after a fight between dragons.

I've not heard of either of these, but since diamonds are my gem (April), it would be nice if either were true. Too much blood has been shed over diamonds in the past, which sadly is not legend, but legendary.
