Durga was an Isu who was later revered in Hinduism as a Devi. A statue of Durga was located amongst Isu ruins deep in the caverns beneath the summer palace of Ranjit Singh. The statue was decorated with at least two Pieces of Eden, namely an Apple and a Staff of Eden, accompanied by its centerpiece, the Koh-i-Noor.[1]
Biography[]
In 1839, as Pyara Kaur was set upon by the British Templar Francis Cotton, the princess somehow activated the Koh-i-Noor diamond. Possessing Kaur, Durga gave a statement referring to humanity as "splintered", but that the race was guided through messages left behind by her own across time. Horrified at Durga's appearance, Cotton fired multiple shots at her with his pistol, though the diamond shattered after a bullet hit it, severing Pyara's connection to the Isu and seemingly destroying the artifact.[2]
