Ring of Bone
On his first hand he wore rings of stone,
Iron, Amber, Wood and Bone.
There were rings unseen on his second hand,
One blood in a flowing band,
One was air all whisper thin,
And the ring of ice had a flaw within.
Full faintly shone the ring of flame,
And the final ring was without name.
- The Wise Man's Fear.
I rediscovered a ring that I brought back as a souvenir from a mammoth and prehistoric europe exhibition that my family and I went to when I was ten. It's not that pretty, but because of my obsession with the Kingkiller Chronicle trilogy I'm wearing it anyway.
Nobody gets the significance because it's not really a fandom item, but I know. I'm also on the lookout for an iron, amber and wood ring, though I suppose wearing the latter does send the wrong signal. The various rings and their meanings as well as their subtle introduction is one of my favourite parts of Rothfussian world-building.
