[Rails] Unicode parsing

Anyone out there find a way to parse a string with unicode characters
into a regular utf8 string?

So input: "%u041c%u0438%u0445" etc.
output: a ruby string that displays in foreign characters

I've seen lots of posts online but none of them has worked, and it
seems like there should be a quick shortcut for this kind of thing.

Thanks!

Jack
