![]() ![]() ![]() It is a cosmere novel set on a new world, with the "craziest worldbuilding" of the four secret projects. This was followed by a standard publishing release on April 4, 2023. It was released in January of that year as part of a Kickstarter Campaign. Tress of the Emerald Sea was the first of the secret projects released in 2023. Unlike other Hoid stories which tend towards more fanciful, Tress' adventures reflect real-world cosmere events that occurred, though the tale still includes artistic liberties added by Hoid as part of his storytelling style. It chronicles the journey of Tress as she travels the world of Lumar to rescue her beloved, Charlie, after he is kidnapped by the Sorceress. Tress of the Emerald Sea is a stand alone cosmere novel, told as an in-world story by Hoid.
