Question

After throwing one of these objects named Sviagriss on the ground, King Hrolfr declares Eadgil no better than a pig for bending over to pick it up. One of these objects wrapped in wolf’s hair warns a Burgundian king about the treachery of Atli the Hun. A cursed one of these objects is found alongside the Helm of Terror and Hrotti in a treasure hoard. Loki completes a wergild that he owes (15[1])to Hreidmar by placing one of these objects upon an exposed whisker of an (*) otter’s pelt. That one of these objects named Andvaranaut turns one owner into a creature whose blood grants the ability to understand the language of birds. Odin owns one of these objects that creates eight copies (10[1])of itself (10[1])each night, named Draupnir. For 10 points, name these objects, one of which turns Fafnir into a dragon and titles an operatic cycle by Richard Wagner. ■END■

ANSWER: rings [accept Andvaranaut until read; accept Draupnir until read; accept gold rings] (The cursed ring is Andvaranaut.)
