THE
HEALING
RING
OF
JAMLISO |
A ring of healing created by the mage
Jamliso that remains even today an
intriguing enigma. This ring has remained of interest
simply because no one knows the truth surrounding it.
Appearance. This
ring is single band a mixture of silver and mithral that is highly polished. It
is etched with a parallel band circling the ring at each edge. It is endowed
with magic to size to any finger by whoever wears it; also it heals the wearer
after they are injured. Like all the enchanted items created by
Jamliso, it is believed to have been
crafted by the dwarven metal smith Demtak.
Myth/Lore. This ring has
drawn interest almost from the day it was made. The reason for this interest is
the simple fact that the mage Jamliso kept
this ring out of all the enchanted items he crafted. That he kept this ring
should not have brought much attention as most mages have some kind of
enchanted item, if not several. What probably heightened interest may have been
due to the fact he never sold a single enchanted item out of several hundred
varying kinds he is purported to have crafted, simply giving them away, except
this ring. It was known Jamliso
could use powerful binding magic but then he would use minor
enchantments to bind to an object. There were many who said he could not
combine the two and only achieved this feat with this ring of healing. Others
say he chose not to combine the two preferring the minor enchantments and this
ring was no different. Whichever the case, he was certainly killed by someone
wishing to possess this ring. Over the years it has
occasionally surfaced when someone claimed they had the ring or rumors stated a
certain person owned it. In each case the supposed owner was soon found dead
and no ring could be found among their possessions. This has caused many to say
the ring is cursed. They believe Jamliso,
upon his dying breath, cursed this ring and any who would wear it. Others say
it is only the greed of man that causes these deaths. In any case the mystery
surrounding the ring may never be unraveled until or if it comes into the
possession of another mage.
