There is something familiar about this.

WV isn't familiar with Bec's symbol, so it's something else about this situation that's jogging his memory.

Perhaps it's the decapitation of the Frog Temple, which is becoming something of a pattern in the Sburb sessions we've seen. Could it have a deeper meaning?

You have not inspected your treasure in years. You have spent ages guarding it without understanding its purpose.

You saw it in action, though!

Are you saying that you don't know what it does, or that you don't know what it's for?

Its only purpose you have understood has been to remind you of things you have taken care to forget.

I can think of two ways to read this.

WV genuinely doesn't understand how the Ring works. As far as he's concerned, it's a dangerous weapon that slaughtered his allies, and nothing more. He's never used it, because he has no interest in weapons of mass destruction - and therefore, its true abilities are unknown to him.

WV knows exactly how the Ring works, but still refuses to use it, even to save his own life. Sure, it can turn him into a demigod - but doing so would turn him into the same monster that ruined everything on the Battlefield. His refusal to use or even acknowledge the Ring is a principled stance against a device he perceives as evil.

Jade's final kernel is turning the chessboard into a fractal.

The game is probably trying to stack four or more dimensions into 3D space, so it make sense that we'd get something screwy.
