Between referencing Wikipedia (thanks for the link, btw) and grabbing my "Inner Sea campaign guide," I actually found a prime candidate for making use of such a system:

Grand Duchy of Alkenstar.

As a place within Golarian that is devoid of any functional magic, having a system like that would be very beneficial, until or unless they develop actual technologies like the electric telegraph, or the light-based signal system with powerful light sources and shutters, or even wireless radio, they would need something like this, since magic simply isn't an option.

Of course, most of your standard post would still make more economical sense by horse or carriage relay, but in those emergencies where a message needs to go from one side of the region to the other, this one could do in minutes, what a rider might need days for.

feel free to move if in the wrong section...

Ok, been thinking on this for a few hours and it hit me, has anyone ever thought of doing a write-up or book on basically Fantasy Herbology? Things that natural herbs, plants, roots and fungi can do in this fantasy world.

This question came about due to my pondering a random table in the "Curse of the Kobold King" starter adventure, where one of the items you can find is a natural growing moss that will bio-luminesce, and if cut and bottled will last for up to 3 days. a simple vial's worth will shed light equal to a torch. was this ever listed or displayed elsewhere?

So what other plants show possible utility like these? Does anyone else think there might be a book or booklet in on this subject?
