Is it possible to use Rout on one of your own personalities that has been afflicted with a rock token from Earth Becomes Sky to take off the rock token and then bring the personality back into the battle using Ring of Water's action? This came up as a hypothetical during a game and, as much as we searched, we couldn't seem to find a definitive answer. Sorry if this has been addressed before. Thanks for any help you can give.

No, sorry.

Rout destroys an attachment.

Attachments are "cards that enter play by being attached to Personalities" (Citation).

Tokens are not cards (Citation).
