The Stonekeeper - Wikipedia

I may not be as clever as Max, or as skilled as Ronin, but don't ask me if I'm ready. Because no matter what happens, I'll have to be." — Emily to Vigo Light, while doing a tribute at the end of The Last Council The adventure continues across the next books in the series. The Hayes family attempts to get home, whilst learning more about Emily’s amulet and the extent of its powers. They cross paths with a cast of interesting characters, from a bipedal fox to a robotic chef. The art style skillfully combines fantasy and science fiction elements, with tiny details tying each panel into the next with the grace of a weaving spider. Max Griffin makes his debut in the third book to take Emily to Cielis after she activates a beacon. In the fourth book, he, Emily and two other young Stong the mother stone. He steals it, revealing his true loyalty to the nation of the Elves. The fifth book shows his tense relationship with his father, and friendship with a young elf called Layra, whose family was persecuted against because they were elves, despite their help in building Cielis. When he destroys a city airship in anger for shooting down Layra's family, he's sentenced to fifty years in prison. His partially successful escape and subsequent death results in the stone taking over. His last appearance was in the sixth book, when he spies on the resistance by hiding in an illusion of clouds while Navin is learning in the colossus program. He sends a servant to request the Guardian Council's help, when he talks to them asking them to help him fight off the voice. Then they all enter the void and talk to the voice where it promptly undoes all that it has done, killing him. His final words were to Trellis that were important: "Forgive your people. They did not know... That you are the king." This meant that Max had been a false prince of the elves for his life and Trellis is the true king.Key ideas and details: Reading closely to determine what the texts says explicitly and making logical inferences from it; citing specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text; determining central ideas or themes and analyzing their development; summarizing the key supporting details and ideas; analyzing how and why individuals, events, or ideas develop and interact over the course of the text.

Amulet: the stonekeeper: Stonekeeper: Volume 1 : Kibuishi

Transformation sequence of Emily unconsolably morphing into a phoenix when she loses control of her amulet. Knowing that Max has stolen the Mother Stone and taken it to the Elf King to forge new Amulets, Vigo and Emily face growing dangers as they try to stop the Elf King. The Cielis Guard (what’s left of the Cielis army) prepares to fight the elf army, but the enemy is getting stronger and the Elf King has begun to use the shard of the Mother Stone to create his own Guardian Council. As both sides prepare for war, Trellis and Emily (with the help of Vigo and others) discover that the stone allows them to go into the past. Emily, while always wary of the voice in the stone, is finding new evidence to support her misgivings. She and Trellis go into the past and find that Max is not exactly what he seems to be and that he has been controlled by the Voice of his Amulet. Emily also discovers that the Voice of her Amulet is more sinister than she originally feared. As soon as the trio arrives in Charnon House, the figure takes his disguise and reveals himself as Miskit, a small pink rabbit robot. Miskit goes on to explain Emily's reason for having been brought to Alledia while passing by the other household robots. They introduce Emily to Silas, where she gets to speak to him for the first and last time before he passes away after explaining the decision that Emily must make; discard the stone that she had found or gained its great power that can help save her mother, but with a great price. After Silas passes the house and the robots shut down after urging her to make the right choice. While Navin remains apprehensive about the stone, Emily is ultimately convinced by the Voice to choose the stone, reactivating the house and the visibly relieved robots. note: this guide covers volumes 1-6, although many of the activities will apply to any of the books in the entire series. Table of ContentsAs with most stonekeepers, however, Emily does not always have complete jurisdiction over her actions, due to the stone's Voice having a will of its own and occasionally overpowering Emily, such as during the battle against Luger at Demon's Head Mountain. Fortunately, Emily manages to overcome the urge to let the entity possess her completely. For this, the Voice can act as a necessary guide on Emily's journey, but just as equally a malevolent and pervasive threat to her being.
