Linkstones take the physical forms of precious gemstones which a stoneholder keeps on their person at all times. Every Cycle member has a stone associated with them that represents their personality. The current stoneholder may communicate with a previous stoneholder’s spirit (if their stones match).

A much more negative effect, however, is that the current stoneholder inherits all of the previous stoneholders’ permanent physical injuries — usually to a much lesser extent, but due to the strange nature of Linkstones, there is a chance that such an injury could worsen for the inheritor. Linkstones, as a form of gemstone, bear distinctive cuts; and these aren't so easily forgotten.

Light and Death are two god-like figures in Emarisian lore. The two play a very important role in the World of Emaris series.

• Light
  • The Light is the god of purification. It is represented by healing, warmth, strength, and light. Light balanced out Death when its immense power threatened the safety of the world.
  • Vessels
    • The Light has also been known to use particular humans as "vessels", as foretold in prophecies from the Ivoryfeathers. Due to these tales, some power-hungry gaeans began kidnapping children for use in experiments to try to forcibly create a perfect vessel -- and therefore, capture the Light itself.
    • Only three vessels have been known to exi...
