Silver Raven (3,800 gp): This silver figurine turns into a raven on command (but it retains its metallic consistency, which gives it hardness 10). Another command sends it off into the air, bearing a message just like a creature affected by an animal messenger spell. If not commanded to carry a message, the raven obeys the commands of its owner, although it has no special powers or telepathic abilities. It can maintain its nonfigurine status for only 24 hours per week, but the duration need not be continuous. Moderate enchantment and transmutation; CL 6th; Craft Wondrous Item, animal messenger, animate objects.
A caster with access to lesser planar binding or lesser planar ally could call a small creature that will teleport there and carry the message and bring a reply back.

Lantern Archons spring to mind, but there are others.
If it's a low-magic world, there's no faster means of communication than a letter cartied by a rider on a fast horse, especially if there are points where the rider can switch horses. IOW the Pony Express.

What level are you? And how far away is it? If youre a high enough monk then you may be the fastest courier around lol.
Can anyone in your party cast Teleport? It's range is 100 miles/caster level. Or there's always Greater Teleport which has no range restrictions but it's a 7th level spell. If you happen to be in a city yourself of a decent size you could buy a scroll that one of your party casters could read for you: 1125gp for scroll of Teleport or 2275gp for Greater Teleport; by far the cheapest option.
