Talk:Corrupted Gems/@comment-13381121-20160803001106

I think I have a better explanation for corruption: Imagine a glass of water. Now imagine that the glass is broken. The water that was inside the glass is still water, it's just that the receptacle can no longer maintain the intended shape. Now imagine the glass of water again, however this time artificial flavoring is added. The receptacle is still the same, but the contents inside are changed. The only way to return it to its original state is through purification.
