Order Rings - The Last Order

Very appropiately, the last ring we talk about is the Last Order's one. I haven't been able to find my missing collection, but I was quite lucky in a brief visit to Sadel Noctus, and found him selling the Vortex Ring I need to post here.
So here it goes. Enjoy a brief look at what people-killing warlocks like to wear!

>look vortex ring

A steel ring, grey as the knife-blade, has been used as a base for this ominous design. Around it have been woven silver and gold wires, creating a lattice through which the enclosed steel can barely be made out. A flat disc of octiron has been fastened to the top of the ring, and a single star ruby protrudes from its centre. Spokes of diamond dust stretch from ruby to rim, and between each pair of spokes lies a bone-white letter.
Written in octarine fire: "Finis"
It appears to have something written on it.
It is in excellent condition.

Order Rings - The Circles

Strange... I can't seem to find the box in which I had all 8 order rings. I'll have to check in all my vaults for it, but I imagine it might have got lost somewhere...
Only two to go. Luckily, I have a deluded ring of my own order to check and describe here for you.

>look sectioned ring

This golden ring has a setting that has been divided into four equal sections. Each segment has been covered by a slice of highly polished precious stone, symbolising four elements of Discworld: ruby for fire, sapphire for water, diamond for air, and tiger's eye for earth. At the joining point of the four wedges, an inverted cone of octiron rises, topped by a flashing Ankh stone: the fifth element, surprise.

Order Rings - The Hoodwinkers

>look elusive ring

A brilliant-cut diamond, apparently flawless. Upon closer inspection, however, it is apparent that a design has been etched into the top surface, but not coloured in any way. The design is elusive in the extreme, flashing into and out of perception at the slightest motion of the wearer's hand. It is mounted on a plain silver band, to be worn as a ring.

Order Rings - Mrs. Widgery's Lodgers

>look tower ring

An elegant gold ring, surmounted by an intricate setting based on a platform of gold. Seven silver spokes lead in from the rim of the platform, joining to the corners of a heptagon in the centre. In the middle of the ring, surrounded by the polygon, a small house has been picked out in octarines. Underneath the whole design is a depiction of the Tower of Art.

Order Rings - The Order of Midnight

> look macabre ring

A plain wooden ring, topped by an elaborate setting. The base of the setting is a slice of tiger's eye. It has been inlaid with a pattern of bones, wrought from diamond. Femora line the circumference, while a detailed skull sits in the centre. The eye sockets of the skull have been filled by tiny sapphires. Deep green lettering runs between the two.

Order Rings - The Brothers of the Silver Star

>look anvil ring in case

A plain silver ring has been augmented by a miniature representation of an anvil, flawlessly crafted from flint. Lying crossed on the anvil are a golden hammer and an octiron staff, while the sides of the anvil have been stippled with golden spots which seem to form words.

Order Rings - Sages of the Unknown Shadow

'Gotta have them all'. I've just bought, right now, the last of the rings I was searching for (by an ironic twist, it was my own Order's, and the first one I ever bought; I even had it deluded, but I must have lost it in some remote robe, cloak, backpack or pothole...). I've even bought them a nice-looking lacquered box in which to lie, and which would also do as I nice piece of decoration if I start renting a property one of these days...

>look case

This is a beautifully engraved small lacquered case. It has the picture on it of two fine steel daggers with delicately jewelled handles.
It is in excellent condition.

As for this entry's ring, it will be the daemonologist's piece, which at a short glance responds quite appropiately as a 'black ring'.

>look black ring

This ring has been cast from octiron, and features a disturbing setting. Its main feature is a blackened, flat disc, with an elegantly faceted ruby at its centre. Around the rim of the disc, blood red letters have been marked into the metal. Between the stone and the letters is an intricate network of silver wires, bulging upward from the face of the disc. The impression is of enormous forces struggling to burst through a barrier, and only the ruby at the centre seems to be holding them back.

Order Rings - The Venerable Council of Seers

At a little, crowded shop in Genua, complete with stuffed Crocodile and wolf skull, a little known Shadows Wizard, Sadel Noctus, has set up a magic trading business:

>look

An old-style wizard's workroom, cloaked in shadow and gloom, with vague rattling sounds and occasional scrabblings emerging from obscured crevices. What meagre light there is emanates from the flickering flames of the regulation dribbly candles, wax as black as an overcast midnight. Various liquids bubble through an impressive amount of twisty glass tubing, and spell books are strewn carefully over the available surfaces. While Hexing students can perform amazing feats of thaumic prowess, somehow they lack the aura present in this room.

There is one obvious exit: north.

Sadel Noctus is standing here.

A stuffed alligator and a wolf skull are hanging from the ceiling.

>l alligator, skull

The traditional stuffed alligator. What wizardly workshop would be complete without one?

This is a fresh skull of a wolf.

Among the things he sells, one at a time, are nice jewelled rings, 8 of which are highly symbolic of the different orders of Wizardry.

I am trying to get my greedy hands on the eight rings, like a cheap discworld Sauron. Up to now, I only have two of them: my own Order's, and the Seer's ring, which looks like this:

> look scholar's ring

A ring of octiron has been surmounted by a thin slice of emerald, over which have been layered strips of ivory, to create the impression of a weighty, green-covered tome. Inset into the ivory are thin traceries of silver, crawling like writing in an unknown language. Over the writing, golden letters have been set in a recognisable pattern.

Etched in lines of glowing octarine: "Addverendus Haruspex"
