So far we know Tess, in prison, was investigating about the Pilgrims because she had a Pilgrim ancestor called Mary Goodwin. Mary was tried and burned at the stake for witchcraft, but what really happened is the Crimson Order ordered her to be killed because she was digging in their secrets. Tess continued investigating about the topic and she could attract the Crimson Order's attention.
