The ring in question is a Daedric artifact called the Ring of Hircine. He resides in an elaborate cell and claims he never meant to kill the girl, with his sole defense being he lost control due to a cursed ring. Initially, he seemed a decent man, but the people of Falkreath have yet to decide his fate after he ripped a young girl to shreds. The suspect, Sinding, had come into town as a laborer. This conversation reveals that the suspect is currently in Falkreath’s jail – and subsequently kicks off the quest, 'Ill Met by Moonlight.'
Visiting the Falkreath graveyard, the player can speak with the girl’s parents who are holding her funeral. When the Dragonborn arrives in Falkreath to the west of Helgen, rumors of the brutal murder of a little girl can be heard.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has a series of quests pertaining to Daedric Princes and their artifacts.
