Jacob Hughes is a professional explorer sent to document the ruins of Sweden but when he went in he did not realize what he would find.
Jacob feels the ring calling to him so he put it on at first nothing happens but then it starts burning his skin he scream but no one can hear him, he looks down at his finger and you see the area around the ring is black and hard like a piece of bark he touches it and feel the bumpy black wood that once was his skin and again he screams.
The wood on his finger covers his whole finger in seconds as your nail disappears then the changes spread and transform his other fingers he can't move them the changes now start on his toes and his other hand as he collapse onto the ground his feet and hands are completely made of wood then up the wood go's turning his wrists and toes brown as his clothes disappear leaving him naked.
He watches horrified of his arms and legs turning to wood they start to shrink. He experiences the most horrible feeling when his organs starting to wood when it gets to his chest he realizes he can not breathe and is heart is not beating while that happens his arms and legs shrink into his brown excuse for a body.
Finally the last part of his change the head the wood moves up his neck preventing movement then his chin turns to wood as his mouth seals itself never to be used again his nose shrinks into his skin or should i say wood and he experiences a blinding pain in his eyes and then all he can see is brown his hair falls out and the rest of his head is turned to wood as his head starts shrinking into his body and his body starts to thin all thats left of him is a stick with a ring on it .
But when the changes first started Jacob let off an emergency signal and his crew come to find him who realizes what happens.
