The triggered ability will resolve before Twisted Riddlekeeper does. If Twisted Riddlekeeper is countered or otherwise leaves the stack in response to its triggered ability, the triggered ability will still resolve as normal.

The triggered ability may target permanents that are already tapped. It will still put a stun counter on them.

The mana value of a creature spell with emerge isn’t affected by whether its emerge cost is paid. For example, if you cast Decimator of the Provinces for its emerge cost and sacrifice a creature whose mana value is 3, Decimator of the Provinces’s mana value remains 10.

The creature chosen to be sacrificed is still on the battlefield as the cost of the emerge spell is determined and as you activate mana abilities to cast the emerge spell. Its abilities may affect the spell’s cost, be activated to generate mana, and so on. However, if it has an ability that triggers when a spell is cast, it will have been sacrificed before that ability can trigger.
