When she gets to work, her boss, Commander Root, gives her a hard time for being a few minutes late and threatens to demote her from Recon to Traffic duty. She is an elf who lives underground with the rest of the fairy population, who refer to themselves as the People. In Chapter 3, we meet a new character, Officer Holly Root of the Lower Elements Police. Eventually, he succeeds, and we discover what he wants to get out of the Book: fairy gold, in the hope that it will restore his family name. Artemis is forced to do all of these translations by hand because there is no computer program that will recognize the language. After this success, he also discovers that the book cannot be read from left to right and instead is written in a spiral. He does not get lucky for a long time until he realizes that the characters in the book are very similar to Egyptian hieroglyphics. In his study, Artemis spends several hours translating the book. Artemis can hear her terrified sobs as he walks away from her room. She recognizes him at first, but quickly becomes frantic as she explains to him that she can hear voices. Artemis visits his mother, who has been on bed rest for nearly a year. In Chapter 2, Artemis and Butler arrive back to the Fowl Manor. She agrees, and Butler and Artemis photograph the Book before heading back home. Artemis tells her that he will give her an antidote to the poison, as well as a serum which will return her magical powers to her, if they let her photograph her Book, which contains the secrets of the fairy world. However, the whiskey has been laced with holy water, which is fatal to fairies.
Artemis knows that she has lost her magical powers due to centuries of alcohol dependence. She is an alcoholic, and refuses to do business with Artemis until he hands her a bottle of Irish whiskey. They meet with their contact, Nguyen, who leads them to her hiding spot, where she has been posing as a healer.
In Chapter 1, twelve-year-old criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl and his assistant Julius Butler are in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, looking for a fairy.
