It's a fantasy role-playing game.

DM: You are Vex Vex'ahlia, a half-elf ranger . You are the member of the famous group of adventurers. Previously, However, the other members of Vox Machina interject and say that he is not free to go just yet; they still need him to testify in front of Sovereign Uriel Tal'Dorei III to prove that their earlier actions at the feast held for Lord and Lady Briarwood were justified (see:
 The Feast/
 Crimson Diplomacy). Rejoining the party, you wonders aloud why Desmond is still in the cell.
DM: The bag of gems, it's a few semi-precious stones, but then there are a couple of well-carved sapphires, emeralds, couple of nice gems. The overall worth of that bag probably comes to about 1,200 gold.
Player: Awesome! And then the jewelry box?
DM: The jewelry box has largely gold rings, a few gold earrings, the overall worth of the jewelry in there from what you can ascertain given the time that you were spending with it and your experience with having to hock and pawn things that you've acquired over your travels, you could probably sell everything in the jewelry box for about 150 gold.
Player: Is any of it, you know, magical?
DM: No, there are no magical implements of it. It is purely just a jewelry box for Tylieri's own collection.
Player: I'm keeping the jewelry box, 'cause I want it.
DM: Okay. It is a nice jewelry box.
