One of the most important subplots in “Mermaid Princess Amelia and the Lost Symphony,” is the one of nine artifacts.
The artifacts are first mentioned by Captain Jet Mir Thakur. He resorts to a smart trick, to convince her to sign a contract with him, and bring him the precious objects that he’s seeking.
Jet Mir needs artifacts to open one of the seventeen guardian plates described in the Universal Legend. Each guardian plate found is said to give power to “change everything,” “shake people’s spirits” and create “brand new worlds.” Several merpeople believe, it will also give power to “change history.” This doesn’t mean ability to go back in time, though, but rather making an ancient discovery which will affect the present moment.
The artifacts are mostly decorative objects with shells and pearls. It looks like they’re are used to active some mechanism on the guardian plate, which will later open it and reveal treasure.
Below, you can find the table with all countries and information about artifacts.
| Mermaid country | Owner | Object | Location | Fate |
| The Hospitable Sea | Edith Dvali | Hairpins made with pearls | Edith’s glasses | Given freely to Jet Mir |
| Thai Pearl Empire | Niran Thani | Conch brought by his father from the Gulf of Carpentaria | Niran’s apartment in Portugal | Stolen by Lumina |
| Scottish Sea | Garabel Haldane | Brooch with a cowry shell | Garabel’s clothing | Stolen by Amelia for Jet Mir |
| East China Sea | Greene Grant | A golden salt bowl encrusted with jade and shells | The emperor’s palace in East China Sea | Stolen by Lumina |
| South China Sea | Huang Yan | An ancient sword | Unknown, but probably South China Sea | Stolen by Lumina |
| The Lotus State | Nubia Khaled | Unknown | Amphora with the Horus eye in Blue Nile | Given freely to Jet Mir |
| The Kara Sea | Irene Orlova | Unknown | Unknown | Stolen by Lumina |
| The Kingdom of One Thousand Jewels | Kamadia De Lisle | Unknown | Unknown | Stolen by Lumina |
| The Argolic Gulf | Poseyda Eos | Unknown | Unknown | Stolen by Lumina |
Technically speaking, Amelia’s mission failed, because, she only managed to get one artifact, and the other two were freely given to Jet Mir. Meanwhile, Lumina Mond stole six other artifacts, and later, also the ones collected with such effort from Jet Mir.
When Jet Mir met her, he was very upset, and didn’t even try to hide it. Edith and Kamadia laughed at his anger, but Amelia reminded Lumina that karma goes around. Lumina said she would return them to owners and write apology letters. Edith expressed the wish to paint all artifacts on postcards for her friends, as she’s an artist.
The artifacts (and other ways) led protagonists to the Mausoleum of Lost Symphonies, where they could listen to the forgotten Fiery Symphonies.
