Gems take on a new look, Part II

Players helpfully pointed out that there were some additional gems that, while less troublesome, have the same "missing adjective" problem corrected for emeralds, rubies, and moonstones. To fix this problem, the Department of Redundancy Department has issued the following additional changes:

"a piece of,,onyx" -> "a piece of,black,onyx"
"a piece of,,amber" -> "a piece of,golden,amber"
"a piece of,,obsidian" -> "a piece of,jet black,obsidian"
"an,,amethyst" -> "a,deep purple,amethyst"

I do not anticipate any further changes in names of current gems.

Cheers,
GM Bernt
