Katie felt uncomfortable under Dál's penetrating gaze. He went on: "How did you really come by it? I don't believe that it is from the Lysamar royal collection. In the time that we've been travelling together you haven't exhibited the selfishness that you would have done had you been wearing it for long enough to be seriously corrupted by it... But I think that I can answer my own question. If you didn't bring it with you from Lysamar, then you must have found it in the dragon's hoard. I should have guessed at once. Take it off and throw it away, before it's too late. There's a nice dense thicket over there, where it's unlikely that anyone would ever find it. For you wouldn't want someone else to come to harm through it."
