He stares at the ring in his lap and then back at the hallucination of Rayner. Touching his forehead he can feel a tiny impression where the ring hit.
"You're fucking me." Eli says that to his Hallucination, not the ring. Rayner crossed his arms and rolled his eyes.
"You heard the ring. You know why we sent you back here. You even insisted upon it." Rayner leaned down so that he was face to face with Eli. "You are our hope. You will survive. You have everything riding on you. Maybe you're not quite the hope that the ring expects. But you've got enough hope drenched all over you that it's attracted to that. So, do me and you a favor."
"What?"
"Pick up the Fucking ring, you dingbat."
Eli picked up the ring, grumbling, "The real Rayner doesn't talk like that to me."
"Sure he does."
