[ he nods gravely, lifting his uninjured arm to pull his glove off. yes, it's done with his teeth but that's all he has now that one of his arms is busted.
he settles the hand with the ring on his knee, for gilgamesh to see. ]
The ring that I have...it's, how do I explain, the connection to the power that I had in my previous life. And it's a lot of power. Because of that I didn't want to tell the Foundation this...or anyone, really. I don't want this to fall into the wrong hands, King Gilgamesh. If it did... it would be a disaster. So, I lied. And I'm sorry.
[ he pauses for a moment, looking down at his hand...and then at gilgamesh. ]
King Gilgamesh. With my injury, I'll now be little more than a sitting duck. I'll be the perfect target. And if that's the case...and I do show up dead this next week...I need you to take this ring. Destroy it, protect it, I don't care what happens, as long as this ring doesn't fall into anyone else's hands.
