At some point the Ohmsfords decided to return the stones to those who could use them, and eventually they passed to the Ellenroh Elessedil, the grandmother of Wren Elessedil. Wil uses the Elfstones Heritage of Shannara Īfter centuries, almost all the Elven blood was bred out of the Ohmsfords, making it impossible to use the Elfstones. Wil succeeded, but the effect of his thin Elven blood resulted in Elfstone's magic becoming a part of him physically, and then getting inherited by his descendants. The Elfstones were later given to Shea's grandson Wil Ohmsford, who used them to aid the Chosen Amberle in the search for the Bloodfire. Shea used them several times, though he lost them temporarily twice: once to a patrol of Gnomes and the thief Panamon Creel, and next to the Northland while he fled Skull Mountain, but he recovered them again both times. They were meant as a last resort, for when the magic was activated beings of magical power could sense their use and location. The Elfstones were given to Shea Ohmsford by the Druid Allanon for guidance and protection when all else failed. History of Usage During the Time of Allanon
