[Diarmuid is absolutely right there. Just the thought of those is enough to get him to shift a bit uncomfortably where he's standing, a flicker of a grimace crossing his features for a split second. There's other options, though, and he makes up his mind there that if he can avoid using the fairy rings, he will, even if it does take him longer to get there.]

Aye, well...might just stick to the horses for now. So long as I can find one, that is.

[The locket gets his attention, though. He'd mostly dismissed it earlier, so hearing that you can talk to people on it is a bit of a surprise.]

Hold on, ye mean that's what that's for? I thought...well, never mind what I thought. People actually use those rather than the rings or horses?
