Nestled away in one of the myriad of nooks, crannies, and alleyways that make up the Sultanate of Ul'dah, rests a quaint, cozy jewelry store with a wooden sign depicting an overzealous rabbit pulling a diamond solitaire ring twice his size. This is the Rabbit and the Ring. A store serving all walks of life from the lowliest pauper to the most affluent royals. Whispers even speak of the proprietor's dealing with the Sultana herself.

Blessed Jewelry
Nophica's Binding Leaves
A scintillating pendant blessed with the power to allow the wielder to sense the flows of earth aether around them. When worn around the neck, the pendant will glow a faint green and animals will become calmer when approached by the wearer. If the animal is friendly enough to the bearer, they may even be able to form a psychic connection with the animal and be able to read and understands its language.Bear in mind: You may NOT want to know the thoughts of all animals. Some of them are WEIRD. Especially squirrels. Squirrels are massive jerks. Fair warning.
Menphina's Embrace
At first, this silver bracelet with two clusters of diamonds forming hearts might seem like simply a basic adornment, but once it is equipped, the bearer will feel the ability to sense the emotions of others around them. It is not powerful enough to truly delve into someone, but it will at least allow the wearer an above average empathic sense to any Spoken near them. It does, sadly, not extend to beasts, monsters, or animals. The wearer may also feel a heightened sense of elation whenever they indulge in something they love; whether it be food, drink, or the company of another's presence.Chirurgeon General's Warning: The enhanced sensation of bliss may cause the bearer an unhealthy amount of disappointment in the world around them with prolonged use before removal. Please consult a physickian should the sensations of elation last longer than four bells!
Halone's Shield Ring
This ring depicts the Fury's Shield in all its glory, giving off a faint blue glow once it is wrapped around the finger. The wearer shall feel a faint chill run through them though it's not an unsettling or uncomfortable one: simply a cool, calming sensation that helps them focus in combat. The blessing also helps ward off lighter blows that may generally cause minor harm, deflecting them away before they can come in contact with the bearer.Wearers will also note that, within the Holy See, this ring appears to feel colder than normal. Perhaps it is the proximity to the Fury's most faithful that creates this effect. The wearer will have to figure that out on their own.
Nald'Thal's Trading Rings
Said to be blessed by the Traders Themselves, this pair of rings allows the wearers the miraculous ability to swap objects with one another no matter how far apart they may travel. The wearers need only concentrate on the object they hold and their "twin's" face and soon enough: POOF! The object shall appear several feet away in a harmless location nearest their partner. Please note, the object must be wielded by the bearer so there is a size restriction to the objects that are transferable. Apologies if you were wishing to smuggle an alpaca out of Tural.
Althyk's Rewinding Chronometer
This pocket watch resonates with a strong earthen aether that has the strange ability to rewind time in a localized area around the owner. Not all time, mind you. Just a relative few seconds that might be the difference between life and death.The watch, however, comes with a large caveat. It cannot be charged on its own and must accumulate seconds that it can rewind. It, currently, replenishes one second every cycle of the moon. Still, a few precious extra seconds every year might be all one needs to survive.Just be careful how you spend them...
Nymeia's Weaving Ring
A strange ring that resonates with a strong watery energy when it is slipped upon the finger. The water aether that flows through it and the blessing of Nymeia allows the person wearing it to gain the ability of minor precognition. On one hand, being able to avoid disaster, no matter how minor, is quite nice. On the other hand, it's not as reliable as one might wish it to be.For example, you may have a vision moments before your foot is stepped on due to the ring while it may completely not work when a feral coeurl is rampaging straight for you when you least expect it.Still, it's nice to have that extra level of cushioning. Even if it only activates when you're about to drop a piece of buttered toast.
Llymlaen's Storm Caller
A beautiful pearl bracelet and ring combination: Llymlaen's favorite. While both pieces are worn, the wearer is able to channel wind aether much easier. This is even enhanced while upon a sailing vessel, whether it is at sea or in the air, and allows wind aether to be channeled through it to enhance navigation, still bad weather, and even boost the speed of any vessel the aether touches. Perfect for those who may need to avoid the authorities with an extra little enhancement.Note: wearing this while bathing has a strange effect of causing paranoia. No matter what the wearer does or how far from another they are, they will always feel as though someone is watching them. It is for this reason that it is generally advised to remove the Storm Caller before bathing.
Thaliak's Signet Ring
This ring is blessed to give its wearer a tireless thirst for knowledge. Perfect for Scholars, Researchers, or if you're interested in binge-reading your new favorite fantasy series from the Sharlayan archives.While the wearer is reading, the ring slows the natural fatigue and strain on the eyes and it prevents what many refer to as Limsan Shrimp Posture (LSP) by naturally keeping the body in a comfortable position. It also helps the wearer retain more information they have read by enhancing the mental acuity and synapses that are required of learning.
Azeyama's Sun Pendant
A simple strand of flowers and suns decorate this pendant; each one bearing a pearl at its center. The pendant is naturally warm to the touch and those whose hearts are fondest for Azeyama will feel a faint sense of heat radiating off it more profoundly than those who are not.The pendant has many practical uses besides just keeping the wearer warm though. In times of need, they can call upon its power to illuminate any dark area for as long as they can channel fire aether into it. It is also capable of creating a ward against the cold equal several yalms out from the wearer: enveloping those around them with the sun's radiant heat.
The Virtuosity of the Builder
Beautiful. Perfect. Flawless. This ring has it all. It is crafted to the utmost quality that is difficult, if not impossible, to find an imperfection in. While that alone makes the ring worth more than the entirety of the Sultana's vaults, this ring is more than it seems.Infused with Byregot's power, the Virtuosity of the Builder makes the wearer much more accurate when crafting as well as steadies their hands and focus. This ensures that every strike of the smithing hammer, every chisel of the awl, or shake of the frying pan is much more effective than without it.Just don't get distracted by its perfection.
Oschon's Wanderlust
Not all who wander are lost. And the wearer of this necklace certainly won't be any time soon.Infused with the blessings of the Wanderer, the aether inside this necklace always guides the wearer to a place they hold dear: whether that is their own home, a friend's, a lover's, or simply just a place they find safe. All the bearer of this necklace needs to do is close their eyes and think fondly of that place in their heart and when they open their eyes, they'll be there.The necklace also gives the ability to always sense which direction they are facing, making them a natural compass should a compass not be available.
Rhalgr's Fury
The amethyst set in this stunning necklace resonates with a powerful thunder aether that, from the moment it is equipped, invigorates its wearer. The body will feel limber and supple while the mind will feel a new sense of heightened awareness on account of stimulating bolts of lightning aether running through their muscles and nerves. This extra boost will enhance the reflexes of the wearer as well as speed up their ability to swing a weapon or dodge out of the way out of an incoming attack.Do be mindful that prolonged use of this can cause moderate to severe muscle strain.
Relics
Bells of Clarity
These geomancy bells were forged with the utmost care using precision craftsmanship that allow each one to ring with perfect pitch and clarity.When the noise strikes the ears of an addled mind, they bring about a soothing calm that relaxes and brings peace to the listener. Perfect for those who wish to find inner peace before meditation or prayer. A single ring is enough to still the mind and allow one to achieve inner stability.
Frozen Orb
A delicate orb of translucent crystal that holds back a furious ice storm within. The surface constantly freezes and melts while it is wielded; creating a spectacular visual that dazzles the eye. A lovely ornament to settle next to a writing desk or nightstand.However, the true nature of this relic is one of powerful aether magic. When shattered, the storm contained within will be unleashed, sending bitter cold, ice shards, and catastrophic winds towards the wielder's target. It can also create a pocket of calm around one's self and allies, allowing the orb to be used as a bitterly powerful weapon.Once it has delivered its frigid payload, the orb will reform after some time if the owner gathers up the majority of its frozen shards and keeps them secure in a leather bag.
The Iron Chessman
This curious relic appears to be an ornate knight from a chess set. Its rigid exterior and rough craftsmanship indicate it may be from a long past era. Simple, yet elegant, this object weighs nothing to the hand despite its size and shape.When the wielder of this relic turns the helmet atop the chessman, they will find the object will begin to glow and emit a strong aura about them. This aura will bolster the defenses of the owner, tightening up any holes in their armor they wear and reinforcing the durability of it considerably. Wear and tear will become minimal and common weapons might simply bounce off where they once might find a gap in the owner's defenses.
Serpent's Guile
Hailing from the Far East, this ornate object appears to be rather simple: a coiled up snake with its tongue hanging out. The ivory it is carved from is polished to a fine luster and the scales of the snake are almost pleasant to brush one's fingers across even if for a moment.This relic, however, is fairly potent. Upon brushing between the snake's eyes, the relic will glow a faint greenish-brown and become filled with earth aether. Any toxins that have entered the owner's system will find themselves purged and stored inside the trinket. Should the owner choose, they can either expel the poison harmlessly into another vessel or dilution, or wield it against another at their will. A wonderful device for clumsy poisoners and assassins alike.
Bottomless Teapot
Do you love tea? Like a lot? To the point your blood is currently at least a quarter tea?Then look no further than this pot. Any tea steeped inside this teapot will remain fresh, potent, and even enhanced in flavor and aroma so long as the lid stays secure and water is poured back into it through a stopper in the body of the vessel.Perfect for any Ishgardian, Doman, or Gridanian who can't get enough of their leaf water.
Scent Bottles
These two bottles are linked together through a small latch that can be removed to separate them. Any scent stored in one bottle will be able to be smelled through the other bottle and vice-a-versa.All the owner needs to do is capture a scent within the one of the bottles using their aether. So long as the bottle's top is not fully unscrewed, the scent will remain inside of this relic forever and both will be able to permeate the odor. If the cap is left out, the smell inside will linger indefinitely: filling the atmosphere around the bottle with an extremely potent fragrence that is captured within.Want to remember the scent of a lover? Need to bait a monster with the scent of another? Want to remotely fill a room with the scent of chocobo dung? This can do it all. A wonderful gag gift as well as a sentimental one.
Nymian Spectacles
A Scholar's Best, and Worst, friend. These glasses come in an ornate, black lacquered case decorated with a mother-of-pearl floral inlay. A small clip allows the case to be attached to a belt, perfect for the person who is always losing their glasses.That goes double given for the Nymian Spectacles, for should the glasses remain unseated from a pair of ears or stray too far from the case for too long, they will magically reappear within the case within a half a bell.The glasses are simple in design yet have the added ability to allow the wearer to detect and see fae creatures regardless of one's ability to handle or speak to fae. This may be a great boon to some but, anyone who knows fae, knows this is anything but. You've been warned!
Floral Brooch
A silver locket etched with beautiful ivy and flowers, this relic is a sight to behold as a lovely adornment.When opened, there is space to put a portrait of a loved one, as most curios do. If the owner of the portrait gives consent, the wearer of this brooch may, at will, create a bouquet of flowers of their chosen type for them no matter how distant they may be.Perfect for those who may be parted, whether willingly or unwillingly, for large parts of the season. Let that special someone know you're thinking of them by creating a stunning arrangement of flowers for them.
Gems
Small Arms
Duelist's Rapier
A remarkable rapier with a gold hilt and razor-sharp blade. The pommel contains a single, radiant ruby that sparkles like the flames of a fire when light strikes it.This is a Red Mage's dream: lightweight, able to channel aether just like a focus, and the innate ability to always return to its user's hand even if disarmed.When paired with a focus, this sword becomes even more powerful as both can act as a conduit for channeling.
Wayfarer's Dagger
This dagger is easily concealable on the form, whether in a boot, up a sleeve, or attached to a garter. Despite being made of metal, the dagger feels soft and cloth-like to the touch, perfect for avoiding unceremonious pat-downs or frisks.It is also extremely light and perfectly balanced, allowing it to be thrown with unerring accuracy and precision. If the dagger is ever confiscated or removed from the owner's possession, the dagger and sheath can be returned with a simple incantation to Oschon.
The "Letter" Opener
This fanciful knife, in all its beauty, is a simple letter opener at first glance. The blade is dull, far too beautiful to cut anything, and it feels all too weighty or unwieldy to use.However, should the owner twist a knob on the pommel, the blade turns vorpal and its weight dissipates into that of a feather, allowing it to be wielded lethally in even an untrained fighter's hands.Perfect for infiltration, protection, and also just opening letters if your heart so desires.
The Tear of the East
A wakizashi forged with an impeccable eye for quality, this eastern sword's singular edge cuts like no other. Equal parts beauty and lethality, one need not look any further if they are looking for a perfect marriage of the two aesthetics.Much like our other weapons at the Rabbit and the Ring, this blade is imbued with the blessings of the auspice, Seiryu. A miko to a shrine dedicated to Seiryu has blessed each one with the spirit of the Azure Dragon. The weapon resonates with a faint water aether and, when drawn, spring dew forms upon the blade. This weapon can, however, only be drawn in defense of one's self as the miko who blessed it is firmly against violence unless absolutely necessary.But fear not. While this weapon is sheathed, it helps inspire creativity in its owner, often aiding in the musical arts. It can also be used to summon a small, localized rain that can put out fires or cool down an area.
Conductor's Baton
At first glance, this long baton could pass as a walking staff with fanciful gold ornamentation and a red lacquered body that stands out amongst the crowd. It's stylish, sleek, lightweight, and extravagant enough to be the highlight of any ball or masquerade the owner attends.It also contains a powerful relic within that allows the owner to create melodies using wind aether on a whim. Any song they have in their head can be brought forth from the baton so that others may hear it. When flourished at a target, it also imbues them with the ability to play an instrument despite not having any proficiency in it. Not to a maestro level, perhaps, but above-average talent unless they already have a capacity for music.In combat, it's even more frightening. When struck with the baton, the target's mind is muddled with an unmistakably horrible melody that is akin to scraping a knife against a bottle or fingernails against a chalkboard. This can thwart spellcasters and fighters alike, causing them to be painfully distracted by the awful cacophony of noise in their head.
