Upon their meeting, the Apsect of Hircine considers removing the curse if he complied with his favor to kill Sinding. The Dragonborn excepts the ring and says he will return it to Hircine. Sinding explains that the death of Lavinia was the fault of the ring (the cursed ring) and reveals that the Ring of Hircine was no longer the Daedric Artifact it had been since Hircine cast his curse upon it. Thinking this amusing, Hircine gave the Ring to him as a gift. Sinding was trying to return the ring when he murdered Lavinia and was thrown into Falkreath jail.Īlthough the Dragonborn was tasked to kill Sinding, they returned to Hircine to report that they spared him and killed the hunters. However Hircine discovered the theft and planted a curse on the ring, causing it to have the opposite effect on him and cause him to transform into a werewolf at random. A ring that belonged to the Lord of the Hunt, Hircine’s ring was stolen from him by the werewolf Sinding, who had hoped to use it’s powers to control his lyncanthropic transformations.
