This will not end well.

…What? It’s Europe! They had a war one time over somebody’s ear. You don’t think that they won’t throw down over St. Joan’s Ring? …Well, probably not; but if you can’t run an adventure around this hook then there’s no help for you as a GM.
Buh… why would Britain have a claim on a Joan of Arc artifact?
They burned St. Joan Of Arc at the stake fair and square. They see The Maid’s ring as rightfully theirs.
.
You also have to take into account that the British do not like Catholics in general (November 5th is all about burning a Catholic man in effigy). Anything to stick a thumb in the eye of a Catholic Saint is God’s work for an Englishman.
Just read the article. Obviously I was unaware of the history. Yeah, that ring ain’t coming back without skulduggery.
Ludicrous.
Yeah, that’s never going back to England.
Nor should it.
(And I say that as a card-carrying Anglophile.)

Also, aren’t UK voters about to tell the EU to go to Hell, anyway?
