This highly secrative and exclusive organization is one of many underground secret societies on Mercer Island.
The origins of this group have been traced to 13th century Scotland, where women of the royal family and other noble ladies of the court founded the Sochai
d' Diamant Dubh (the Gaelic which translates to: Society of the Black Diamond). According to
government documents and papers recovered form the Scottish Ministry of Foreign Commerce, a member of the society moved to American during the late 1800s where she founded a branch of the group. The
Black Diamonds have appeared in small affluent suburbs around
America ever since.
Little is known about the
Black Diamonds (a.k.a. Diamond City,) but the group reportedly consists of senior
girls in the class of 2009. New members are required to undergo a grueling 2 week initiation, but the benefits of the sisterhood are rumored to be enviable. In accordance with the ancient Scottish tradition of the society, the
Black Diamonds are primarily in existance to continue the bonds of
love and friendship amongst the Senior Babes through their University years, and through the rest of their lives.
