Can I straighten a Ring while in a battle with Sisters of the Sun with the follower ability. There has been a disagreement about this as some people say that a Ring is not in a battle or at the battlefield thus cannot be targeted.

Battle/Open: Straighten a target Ring.

Sisters of the Sun

Battle/Open: Straighten a target Ring.

The first part of the Rule of Location, that restricts targeting of Battle actions to cards at the current battlefield, only applies to cards IN UNITS (see here).

A Ring is a legal target for that Follower's ability, provided the Follower is at the current battlefield (per the second part of the Rule of Location).
