Emily, Navin, and Mom take over the home of long-missing great-grandfather Silas; there Emily finds a strange amulet. They pass into a strange and dangerous world where the mother is seized by a weird beast. Guided by the amulet, which she does not fully trust, Emily finds Silas, who passes the amulet and its power to her even as he dies, making her a Stonekeeper. Aided by Silas's robotic followers, they rescue the comatose mother. To do so Emily uses her amulet to blast a hostile Stonekeeper, the Elf Prince. They set out to find aid for Mom, using Silas's mobile house.
