After Silas dies, the lights turn off and the amulet glows and tells Emily to become the new stonekeeper and accept its power, which she does against Navin's wishes. The robots place Silas in a "sleep chamber" and locate Karen with a computer that shows them where the monster, an Arachnopod, currently is. While en route to Kanalis, Emily worries very much about Karen. Emily appears to sit at her mother's bedside constantly. Morrie tells Emily that he feels a strange presence in the room like it is not just him, Emily, and Karen there. He ends up leaving after Emily claims she can't feel it. The Voice then appears to Emily and tells her that she should've slain Elf Prince Trellis while she had the chance. Her stone warns her that a battle will follow soon and that the elf horde will stop at nothing to kill her. While the Stonekeepers mostly benefit from keeping one, it isn't rare that they may lose control and ultimately become unbalanced. In one particular incident, several Stonekeepers were possessed by their stones and transformed into colossal beasts, which subsequently wreaked havoc on Alledia. In Book Two: The Stonekeeper’s Curse (p. 99), Leon Redbeard and Emily discuss the choices she is facing. Discuss what Leon means when he says, “You must believe that you are here by choice and not by circumstance…You must…take control of your life and the stone will follow.” What might Leon’s implications entail?

As they clean the house, Emily finds a strange amulet in the library where her great-grandfather, Silas Charnon, worked, and puts it on. That night, Karen is kidnapped by a monstrous "arachnopod".
