Hanging is that form of asphyxia which is caused by suspension of the body by a ligature which encircles the neck, the constricting force being the weight of the body. The whole weight of the body is not necessary, and only a comparatively slight force is enough to produce death.
To obtain a Sapphire use the mine [ore] option in the mining tab. The chance of finding a gem is 0.5% and can later on be used for Jewelry. Increasing your Luck stat will further increase your chances of finding one (the developers did not give any information on how much your chances are increased, however). The quality of the gem will match the highest quality of the ore you are currently mining (referring to the fact you can cross 2 different quality layers in mining).
The sapphire's current owner, who has chosen to remain anonymous, has named it the Star of Adam, after the local belief that Adam lived in Sri Lanka after being banished from the Garden of Eden. Blue star sapphires are named after the star-shaped patterns found on them. This particular specimen was mined at the city of Ratnapura in the southern part of the country, which is a major centre of the gem industry. Sri Lanka produces over 50 kinds of gems, with its prized 'cornflower blue' sapphires fetching high prices in particular.
