The ruby eye of the golden ring
 
 
  The ring is heavy, the legend says. It is hard to hold onto and will sink to the bottom of any sea, but will always resurface somewhere, appearing to those looking for it… or to the unlucky casual wanderer.
  The eye, the stone looks like ruby, but is not ruby. It looks like blood, but is not blood. People ask themselves what it is, but no answer is forthcoming. The very sight of it makes a chill colder than any ice hammer down their spine, but they do not know why.
