A further note on how this ring affects affinty. When an NPC is "in love" with you, you will hear a chime, see a pink aura, and they will blush. Affinity can continue to be raised beyond this point, and Arisen's Bond only sets them instantly to "in love." Most of the major NPCs have personal quests and also escorts, both of which significantly raise the affinity, so give them Arisen's Bond FIRST, so they will already be "in love" THEN do their quest and escort. Contine to give them gifts in between every quest you do to keep boosting them higher. Following this strategy, you don't need to waste time lowering everyone else's affinity. I had Selene, Madeleine, Reynard, and Maximilian all in love with me, didn't do one thing to reduce affinity on any of them, and still got the one I was trying for, by following the strategy outlined above.
