The Crown of Midnight Tone and Mood

The tone and mood of the Crown of Midnight is heavy. The reason for this is that Celeana is barganing and saving lives from being killed by the king insted of killing them outright like she is told. An example is shown here " She had embarked on the first mission intending to quickly dispatch the target. She'd prepared herself for the kill, told herself that Sir Carlin was nothing but a stranger and his life ment nothing to her. But when she got to his esstate and witnessed the unusual kindness with which he treated his servents, when she saw him playing the lyre with a traveling minstrel he sheltered in his hall, hwen she realised whos agenda she was aiding... she couldn't do it" ( maas 14).
