Gameplay

Instant

Choose an opponent. They look at the top four cards of your library and separate them into a face-down pile and a face-up pile. Put one pile into your hand and the other into your graveyard. The Ring tempts you.

"He was dear to you, I see. And now he shall endure the slow torment of years."
