Gems are a high-risk, high-profit item intended for traders. Every capital island buys a different type of gem, depending on which archipelago in which it is located: emeralds would be bought by the Epsilon market, diamonds would be bought by the Alpha market, and so forth. Various times a day, some gems will spawn randomly at one colonized capital island. The sell price depends on how far you must sail them to their capital island; for instance, emeralds would cost less at Eta Island than at Alpha Island.
Traders may buy the gems and sail them to the capital island, but there are risks. If you abandon your ship for over fifteen minutes, with gems in the hold, they are stolen by mysterious forces, never to be seen again. The sea holds its risks as well, for twice the normal amount of gems are pillaged if you lose a sea battle.
Gems may not be sold to shoppes.
