Universe with a standalone adventure that will appeal to fans of The Princess Bride. The only

stories told by her friend Charlie. But when his father takes him on a voyage to find a bride
and disaster strikes Tress must stow away on a ship and seek the Sorceress of the deadly
Midnight Sea. Amid the spore oceans where pirates abound can Tress leave her simple life
