The Deck of Many Things (round 4)

I found the deck again today. This time it was hiding in Cursed Lands. I pulled the card again using my back up vamp. This time I was prepared with heals, tank potions and springs. Here is what followed:
Small Hut
These are the living quarters of these villagers.  Very simple looking, it is circular in shape with pots and pans along one side, an outhouse along another and miscellaneous items scattered about.  These people live a very simple life with no luxury.  You wonder how they entertain themselves.
Exits:
The Deck of Many Things lies in wait for a brave soul.
The Deck of Many Things says 'If you can find a card within me, you might be lucky enough to draw something of value. However, once you submit to chance, you put yourself at the mercy of the cards.
The Deck of Many Things winks suggestively.

>g key deck
You get the Key to the Deck of Many Things from the Deck of Many Things.
The Key to the Deck shudders menacingly.
You drop the Key to the Deck of Many Things.
Vl'aresch gives you one gold coin for your sacrifice of the Key to the Deck of Many Things. Be Forewarned : You could lose all that you own.
Viledri has been given the chance to draw from the Deck of Many Things.

>g card deck
You get a card from the Deck of Many Things.
A mystical being appears and points at you. Your senses reel as you are flung through the void to another place. The card twists and wriggles in your hands.
A great flash of light envelopes the room, blinding you momentarily.
When your vision returns, you see that the Deck of Many Things lies before you once more. It is highly recommended that you examine the deck before drawing from it. When  you are ready, simply take the card.

>g card deck

Whispering voices fill the room and a faint breeze blows from somewhere...
You somehow find the inner strength to resist the baleful influence of this card.

Romani says 'One piece of armor please'

You stop using Set's ring of Power.

Small Hut
Exits:
The Deck of Many Things that lay in wait for Viledri rests here.
I chose to hand over the Set ring since if I got something good added to it then it would be useful for pretty much any evil/neutral aligned character. Getting Affects resistant:magic by -5%. added on to an item is a bit weird and not something I'd heard of before. Usually the bad pulls like that would result in having susceptible to magic added instead of a negative resist. I guess I just had an unlucky pull - at least there are plenty more Set Rings in Blasted Lands.
