Talk:Koveras's Ring of Protection/@comment-2601:245:8103:BFC0:8492:2D8A:2FDD:A525-20200113030152/@comment-185.113.97.119-20200113214047

I'm at this very part myself. If you accepted or pickpocketed the ring, the dialogue changes from Ulraunt explaining that Koveras just saw you fleeing the scene to Koveras having found this assassin ring and amnish gold in your possession and seeing you flee the scene, which in Ulraunt's eye's is more than enough evidence to link you to the case. If Brunos or Reiltar even goes hostile, a Watcher guard will approach you on the above floor, indeed speaking about a ring being found belonging to you on the crime scene, regardless if you accepted the ring or not. But unless you actually have the ring in your possession, Ulraunt will not bring that up.

Furthermore if you accept the ring in Koveras dialogue options you can explain to Reiltar that Koveras gave you the idea to murder them now when they're vulnerable. To this Reiltar goes

"Koveras! Who is Kove... of course. It seems that I thaught my son all too well. Well, my young pups, you've been set up to be used as dupes. Koveras does not want what's best for you, but rather what's best for him. Hmmm... well, you should stop this foolish prattle about doing battle and get out of our conference room!"

Which makes one wonder if Reiltar and his companion are content with getting murdered by their ally, or are just oblivious to the fact that Koveras will murder them later anyway if you don't.

I also wonder if the ring, which CAN be imported into bg2 and bgee2, will hold any value in future dialouges, perhaps with Sarevok in the Throne of Bhaal expansion, but I can only speculate (and I'd rather bring the helm of balduran).
