Chapter 4: "The End of Eternity"
by Jason Nelson
Hidden amid the tattered parchment and mundane ink of a mysterious map hides the fabulous paradise of Kakishon. A realm of mystical wonders, mythical beasts, and legendary treasures, this long-lost creation of one of history’s greatest wizards once again inspires the bold to seek its wonders. Yet time, ancient magic, and bitter rivalries work to corrupt the incredible realm, turning it into both paradise and prison. Can they tame the powers of Kakishon’s magical islands and best the masters of the wondrous land? Or will they forever be prisoners of paradise?

[adventure only] Lots of room and some work for a GM

This is a very loose framework into which a GM may insert quite a lot of additional adventuring.
Potential issues (heavy spoilers):
Spoiler:
- sphinx riddle (can make the sand really blind eyes see? why would you use this riddle in a middle of sandy terrain?)
- assumption on sentient beings keeping Kakishon together is only so-so (unless one rules all intelligent semi-natives to be non-sentient)
- breaking Kakishon may not sit well with Good characters (quite a lot of deaths will be involved)
- main antagonist ambition to just rule over several colleagues in prison is so-so
- nigh-epic guy unable to squash low level opposition for several centuries is so-so
GMs are strongly advised to work around these... especially if the players like to ask questions.
The issues are unlikely to affect the flow of adventure for most parties, so they do not impact the rating. However, if your players are wont to ask questions, do some work on your own before running this scenario.

Personally, my favorite issue of LoF pathfinders so far. I wasn't super fond of the genie article, but proteans were excellent, kakishon was awesome, the bestiary was quite good, and the adventure hit upon all of the things I like in an adventure. All in all, very good. Actually, all of Legacy of Fire so far has benn of very high quality.
It's awesome!
