''The Cloud Searchers'' is a fantasy graphic novel which was written in 2010. It is the third volume in the Amulet series. It was written and drawn by author Kazu Kibuishi.〔(Amulet Wiki - The Cloud Searchers )〕 == Plot == The Elf King, believing that Emily was too dangerous to be left alone, sends an elf to hunt her down. At the same time, bodyguards continue to hunt down Trellis, who is continuing his quest to recruit Emily. Meanwhile, Trellis finds the elf Luger in a cave, who has become weak and crippled due to using the amulet too much in book 2. Trellis, instead of getting revenge and finishing him off instead takes pity on him and they begin to travel together. Trellis notices that Luger was being surprisingly gentle and polite compared to how he was in book 2. As Trellis and Luger continue to travel, Emily, her mother and Navin look for leaves to help the robot Cogsley to cover up their robotic house. Emily, who noticed that the humanoid fox Leon was missing, finds him in her great grandfather Silas's study. He explains to her that they were heading to Cielis, despite the fact that it has been destroyed long ago. Cielis was a city where stonekeepers are trained to control and use their amulet's power. These stonekeepers would be part of the Guardian Council, a group of leaders that would rule Alledia. But ever since The Elf King has broken out of jail, he has been ruling Alledia with unfair rules, and so Leon and his crew's plan would be to seek help from the Guardian Council. Leon mentions that some people have claimed to have seen Cielis in the clouds in the sky. The crew finds a city, in which people say that 2 humanoid cats, Enzo and Rico, have claimed to have seen Cielis in the sky. The crew arrives at a bar to relax, but elves enter the bar demanding their wanted prisoner to show their face. The crew thinks it's Emily and try to hide her, but they find out the prisoner is Trellis and Luger, whom elves from outside of the bar have already found. Emily, remembering events from the first book, remembers how Trellis wanted her to join him to kill the Elf King, decides to save him, and attacks the other elves with her amulet. Meanwhile, Enzo and Rico prepare their ship for Emily and her crew to travel to Cielis. Navin suggests that he should be allowed to fly the ship due to his experience with the robotic house, but Enzo rejects the offer, thinking him to be too young, yet later on in the book he flies it without Enzo's permission. As the ship continues to fly, Leon is currently teaching Emily how to defend with the Amulet rather than attack. Meanwhile, Emily asks Trellis why he wanted to kill the Elf King. He explains that when he was growing up, his father (The Elf King) was dead, so he was raised by his uncle. Once he decided to spy on what happened in his father`s room, and saw his father wearing a mask. In that very moment, he found out that his father was being posessed by someone or something. One day on board, Trellis uses his amulet to wrap energy around Emily's mother. Emily, thinking that he was attacking her, shoots a blast of energy at him, but finds out that he was really protecting her from a wyvern(A type of bird in the ''Amulet'' series). The wyvern damages the ship's wings, but Cogsley and Miskit fix it, but are swept off the ship in doing so, much to Emily's depression. The crew arrives at Cielis, where they have to solve a pattern of stones in midair, which are being held in midair due to the power of an amulet's energy. While doing so, the elf that The Elf King has sent attacks them, but Emily and Trellis work together to defeat him. Three mysterious people appear, one of them a teen stonekeeper named Max Griffin. The book ends with Max telling Emily that she will be tested by the Guardian Council to see if she will be worthy enough to be part of them. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Cloud Searchers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
