The ring can be found in various chests, or purchased in the [[Super Secret Faerie Village]] – but only if the party uses the [[Mod Rod]] to change shape first.

They can also be dropped by [[Abracadabrer]]s and [[Imp]]s. The ring will restore 10~34 {{MP}} in all versions, and it is '''strongly''' recommended to stockpile them in advance of the final leg of the journey.

Flavor text A much-revered ring that answers its wearer's prayers.[9]

In this game, the Prayer ring will completely restore the wearer's HP or MP when they reach max Tension, determined at random, and it does not break when the effect occurs. It can be useful as there are limited means to restoring HP and MP during battles, especially for characters who are able to build Tension easily like Alena. The quick recipe for the Prayer ring can be received from King Flaminio in exchange for 2 Mini medals on the Stonecloud, while the classic and luxury recipes can be dropped rarely by Golems.

Dragon Quest Heroes II: Twin Kings and the Prophecy's End
