Andoran
Fellow Free Citizen,
Tyranny and slavery are not unique to the Inner Sea, a truth you will surely encounter in your travels through Tian Xia. It is our duty to spread the ideals held dear by the Andoren people across the globe. It is my understanding that many of Goka’s downtrodden follow a philosophy of passivity and nonviolence. We need to challenge this Tian philosophy of passivity and show that sometimes action—and violence—are required to foster change.
According to information available to me, a beast currently terrorizes the villages surrounding the Clouded Path Monastery, where you are headed, yet the people do nothing to defend themselves. I need you to slay this beast and, using its death as a symbol, show these people that they can stand for themselves. I hope that through this we can win some support for the Andoren cause among the local populace.
With my regards,
Major Colson Maldris
Osirion
Honored Subject of the Ruby Prince,
Your forthcoming travels to the Wall of Heaven may be of some use to the Ruby Prince. The ancient Keleshite scholar Akhair developed texts meant to illustrate the ideal training regimens one should follow
in order to best sculpt one’s physical being. According to Akhair, he derived these texts from the teachings of the masters of the Clouded Path Monastery, during his own expedition to the Wall of Heaven. Though
these texts now rest safely in Osirian hands, the validity of Akhair’s claims has come into question. If, on your own travels, you can verify Akhair’s sources—be it that you prove them true or false—you would have done Osirion a favor.
Eternally,
Amenopheus, the Sapphire Sage
Grand Lodge
Loyal Pathfinder,
It is good to see the Pathfinders of the Inner Sea working together with the Pathfinders of Tian Xia. Though the task assigned to you by Venture-Captain Amara Li is, and should be, your primary concern
during this endeavor, I do have an additional request. Our knowledge of the Wall of Heaven is scant at best. On your journey, be observant for items or clues that may be of value to the Society—maps or the locations
of sites of interest would be of the greatest use; be they your own recordings or the recordings of another trusted source.
Respectfully,
Venture-Captain Ambrus Valsin

Cheliax
Her Majestrix’s Most Loyal Servant,
I do not envy the hardships you are due to experience as you toil your way across the Wall of Heaven. Do
not fear though, my dearest, as should you complete a small favor for me during your travels, I shall personally
see to it that every one of your aches receives the proper attention and treatment it deserves upon your return.
We have identified several Tian nobles that, should we win them over, will further our plans within Goka.
The nobles of Tian Xia, however, are notoriously difficult to approach if one does not conform to local customs.
In particular, these nobles have an unnatural love of tea and it is my belief that you will be traveling to an area
that is home to a very specific variety. If you could retrieve a selection of cuttings and leaves from any of the tea
plants of the Clouded Path Monastery, I would be ever so grateful.
Indulgently yours,
Paracountess Zarta Dralneen
Qadira
Loyal Servant of the Satrap,
I have received word that you are scheduled to travel to distant Goka. This is a most fortunate turn of
events, as we have found gaining a foothold within Tian markets to be most difficult. I believe that you
are destined to find an ancient Iroran monastery. It is my understanding that the monks there are famed
mediators—their calming presence, and logical and objective decision-making a boon whenever hostile
parties met. If this is true, the monks must have surely mediated trade and business agreements. Our hope
is for you to discover records of such, where possible, and return them to us. We can even exploit a decadesold
contract to better our standing in Goka.
Yours in service to the Satrap,
Trade Prince Aaqir al’Hakam
Sczarni
Trusted Associate,
Your journey to Tian Xia has fortuitous timing! I need a package delivered to a friend based near your
destination. I have included a small metal ring—an item of no real value to you, but of some importance
to my friend. The delivery method, however, is the interesting part. If my information is to be trusted—and
it always is—you should come across a strange rock formation known as the Two Brothers. You must stand
on the Little Brother an hour after sunset and flash a light three times toward the south. The receiver should
make himself known shortly thereafter. My friend cannot watch for the signal indefinitely, so it would be best
that you attempt contact as soon as possible. My friend and I shall be indebted to you, should the delivery go
as planned. I know my friend well and he always makes sure to return a favor.
Yours in confidence,
Gueril Karela

Silver Crusade
Noble Pathfinder,
Our first attempts at assisting the people of Goka, and its surroundings, have met with resistance from the very
people we attempt to help. Evidently, we cannot employ the same approach with the Tian people as the one used
in the lands surrounding the Inner Sea. There is much that we do not know or understand about Tian Xia.
I have heard that Venture-Captain Amara Li intends to send you to the Wall of Heaven in search of an ancient
relic. I have also heard that many from this area believe in a philosophy of nonviolence and peace and there
exists a site sacred to this philosophy. The site, known as the Two Brothers, lies somewhere along the path to the
Clouded Path Monastery. Explore this site and try to discern some of the core beliefs behind this philosophy.
Through better understanding the people of Tian Xia, we might be better able to help them.
Yours in faith,
Ollysta Zadrian
Taldor
Agent of the Empire,
The Empire once again requires your services. Many of our competitors hope to use the upcoming Ruby
Phoenix Tournament and the events surrounding it to strengthen political and economic ties between
themselves and the Free City of Goka. Naturally, Taldor could also stand to benefit from a strengthened
alliance with Goka. A fellow agent will leave an item of particular value to the Empire somewhere along the
route that Venture-Captain Amara Li will have you follow. You need to remain observant along the entire
journey to ensure that you do not miss the clues pointing to the item’s location. Return this item to me and
both the Empire and I shall be indebted to you.
Sincerely,
Lady Gloriana Morilla

I feel your pain, I have been wanting a Kitsune boon for about a year. Though my reason for not being able to go to cons is I am the sole supporter of my family and cannot afford to take off to go to the events, not my location.

It might be just me...but I have little idea of what's going on, of where anybody is, what round of combat we're on or if we're still following any sort of initiative order. I also assume I'm still climbing up a rope...please prompt me if/when you need another climb check or feel free to make it for me if that will speed things along.

Hope I'm not stealing all the combat from rest of fighters? But wreck only knows combat, climb and swim. And when to be scary...

Hey everyone, Online PBP is getting a little more attention from Paizo. There is a thread over HERE in the Pathfinder Society area of the forums posted by Joseph Caubo, the Venture-Captain for Online Play, but it seems mainly focused on VTT games. However, one of his Venture-Lieutenants for Online Play posted this HERE.
One more thing, online play is getting an official "Game Day" event. Check that out HERE.
