I've wondered if it depends on how one wears the ring?  Remember when Windham
Earle goes into Owl Cave and sees "the symbols" at the end of rod projecting
out of the wall, then looks up at the cave ceiling and sees "the symbol
inverted" (he then turns the rod so that symbol is inverted too).

Maybe if you put the ring on and the symbol is right-side up, it protects you,
but if it is upside down it dooms you.

Otherwise, I can't explain why Coop warns Laura not to take the ring, but
ultimately the ring seems to protect her soul (unless that was the evil Cooper,
but I don't buy that).
