As the Company are walking to the Magikowner Shop, Dovin and Acyll are having a discussion at the rear of the group. As the discussion becomes more heated they lag further and further behind. Before the Company reaches the door Acyll says “Alright, but I am making clear I think it’s a bad idea. It is the one thing he probably, as a renegade power of magic, hasn’t forgotten about and would likely attract his attention.â€
Dovin says: “Excuse me everyone, as I don’t know most of you, really at all, I wasn’t sure I should mention this, but before we go into the Shop I think this is my last chance. Lord Ari and Rubius know this, but there is an artifact that could greatly assist us in this task and it’s in the custody of the Kingdom, in the vault at Castle Gemblade. It’s called a Dabau’s Ring. Falan’s followers brought it to Habololy to perform the Severing ritual. In Kallark’s divine realm it won’t render him powerless, but it will cut him off from some of his abilities and prevent him from extradimensional escape. The downside, as Acyll points out, is it’s the only one on Habololy and Lyla and Kallark almost certainly know either the Kingdom or the Guardians have it, so they may have a way of being alerted if it comes out of the vault.â€
