When singing Purification Song at a gem a Bard is able to remove blemishes and other impurities from the gem, thereby increasing the quality and price of it. Each successful round of purifying a gem increases the price of it by 10%. However, there is a chance of failure each round, increasing in percentage the more the gem is sung to, that can end in damaging or destroying the gem and hurting the singer in the process, causing Hitpoint loss and even stuns.

It is possible to sing to a gem so well that the gem transforms to complete purity and becomes an "orb gem" that is imbeddable or used in recharging.
