He approached the counter, his gaze laser-focused. He blurted out the details of the ring, the memories associated with it—his grandmother's hand, the way the light caught the facets of the stones. He felt a surge of…well, he just knew, absolutely knew, it was meant to be here.

The ring sat in the palm of the shopkeeper, the emeralds glinting under the dim lights. A feeling of triumph, pure and potent, washed over him.
