Zidane watched Dagger run after beatrix, and then turned his attention to the two objects still sitting on the floor in hte middle of the room. He picked up the stone first, turning it this way and that, holding it up to the light, trying to make sense of it. If it was special, beyond the fact that it was an interesting stone, the thief couldn't tell.
And then he turned his attention to the ring. Now this was a problem. He held it between two fingers as he looked through it at the window, then flipped it in the air several times, catching it smoothly each time. He was tempted to just throw it away, flick it out the window and watch it bounce into the lake, just like that. Dagger would be furious, but...she'd get over it. Eventually.
Was it worth the temporary anguish? Well...he honestly wasn't sure. He tucked it into the front pocket of his vest. He could always claim later he was holding it for safe keeping...
