[quote=@Ammokkx] Oh, alright, got me worried there for a sec. Also, uh... idk why you felt the need to specify he stole it off the previous student and that they were dead. He is posing as a teacher, and said he 'confisticated' the ring. [b]It could be speculated he actually asked the student to hand it over, which then verbally confirmed it, thus not making it stealing.[/b] I actually thought that's what happened at first, or that he actually had two rings and won the second one.
