Turq: Well, all Gems have this extremely powerful energy inside them. But, extracting that energy usually shatters their gem and destroys the energy. But, pearls have a small chance of surviving the process so we'll get the energy before they die. Unfortunately, with the energy depleted from your gem, you'll die. Its a lose, lose situation.
