• Find Shiva outside the ruins and look closely behind him for the nearly transparent ninja bodyguard. The bodyguard carries the ring.
• Kill the bodyguard and collect his drop. If you already spoke to Shiva and they have moved, find both of them at the Blighttown waterwheel support instead.
• This betrays the Forest Hunters and makes Shiva hostile. Make any purchases you want from him first.

Full item route

• Join the Forest Hunters to make Shiva appear.
• Speak to Alvina in the ruined forest building and join her covenant. Shiva appears outside; after you speak to him, he can move to the base of the Blighttown waterwheel.
• Killing Shiva drops the Murakumo. Buy any desired stock first if he has moved to Blighttown. His bodyguard also becomes a threat, and attacking them betrays the covenant.
• Killing Shiva permanently removes his shop for this journey. Farming giant skeletons avoids that consequence.
