So, since Into the Darklands, we haven't really heard much from the mysterious world under the world. It's got a place in the Inner Sea World Guide, but that's the last I've really seen of it.

Are there are other modules/paths/companion books that have touched on it more? It's a place I fell in love with back when I first was introduced into Pathfinder (Into the Darklands was the first PF book I had purchased), but have been disappointed by how little it's been touched.
Paizo has taken us to some fantastic places in Golarion, don't get me wrong. I recently bought Distant Worlds and couldn't put it down until I'd read it cover to cover.

So this is more or less an open discussion/request: will we see more about the Darklands in the near future?

Yes, there is an Adventure Path having to deal with the Darklands called "Second Darkness." You can look it up in the Adventure Paths section of Paizo. Hope that helps.

Woah. Don't know how I missed that. Awesome!

May try and run it on the side at some point. I've always been fascinated by the setting.

Thanks!

I am still curious if anything new will come out for it in the near future, though.


The Dragon Empires Gazetter has a small section discussing the Darklands which occur under Tian Xia.

Lost Cities of Golarion details the city of Ilvarandin, which is in the Vaults of Orv.

Dungeons of Golarion provides partial workups for several dungeons which lead into the Darklands, but not much directly related.

I'm currently running a LONG plot arc where the party has to make it to Ilvarandin to rescue a compatriot. They chose the Candlestone Caverns as their route once they found out it led to the Endless Gulf (they really want to jump into the Endless Gulf to reach the Midnight Mountains below, I really don't think they have any idea of what's in store for them in that case, though *devious GM laughter*).

There doesn't appear to be too much forthcoming, but I'm hoping for at least some unique Darklands monsters in the Inner Sea Bestiary.

Into the Darklands is a fantastic supplement. I would love to see an AP that was completely within the Darklands. Or perhaps some modules.

Seconded. There are plenty of quick references to Darklands culture and religion in Book of the Damned Volume II, in which many of the demon lords are worshipped by/are responsible for several prominent darklands races.
