She's more of a threat to the people behind her than in front.

A-Team Firing: Ann, for all her love of guns and cannons, can't shoot straight to save her life.

Despite this, the crew of the Crow's Song is troubled by their deaths since, while they didn't wish for their deaths, they recognize they were complicit in them. And they all end up dead as part of Crow's covert plan to turn her crew deadrunner. They’re also willing to enslave Huck because he’s a talking rat and to drug Tress bccause they believe she actually is a royal inspector.

Asshole Victim: The crew of the Oot's Dream are all covertly smugglers, and their captain is a lech.

Animal Companion: Shortly after leaving, Tress meets a talking rat named Huck who teams up with her for the rest of her journey.Tress of the Emerald Sea is a novel of The Cosmere by Brandon Sanderson, the first of his 'secret projects' written during the Covid-19 pandemic. Her first mission is to leave a home she has never wanted to leave-an island that she is forbidden from ever escaping. This, Tress realizes, means that she'll have to rescue Charlie herself.

It's much easier to just let it be, to let things continue as they always have. No one liked Charlie, who was always boring and never fighting or getting soldiers killed like a real noble should. Months pass, and Tress realizes that truly, no one cares. When his ship disappears, he is immediately declared dead, a more suitable heir is named, and everyone is happy. Unfortunately, the duke catches wind of this, and after the first few failures sends Charlie off to sail the Midnight Sea and woo the sorceress. Charlie (who, lo and behold, turns out to be the duke's son after all) promises Tress that he will do everything in his power to bore every potential suitor to death until his father has no choice but to bring him back to the island to be with Tress. One day, the duke declares that his son must travel the kingdom and be married.

No one else cares for either of them, but they enjoy their time together. She spends her day collecting cups, which she talks about with her very boring friend Charlie the gardener, who is most certainly not secretly the duke's son. Tress is a very boring girl on a very boring island. The girl, however, might be as you imagined-assuming you imagined her as thoughtful, soft-spoken, and overly fond of collecting cups. Nor was the rock like the one you have imagined. This was not an ocean like the one you have imagined. In the middle of the ocean, there was a girl who lived upon a rock.
