I don't have the answers to all of your questions—only what they gave me in the scenario, however, there are some answers to other things that you may wish to know about also.
What is your hunch?
“I’m afraid that if I had more information than a nagging instinct, I would have already told you.”
Why did you stare at us when we were introducing ourselves?
Petulengro shrugs. “People are not always who they claim to be.”
Was Armeline involved in espionage?
“In Galt, guilt and innocence are too often tried at the court of public opinion. Whether or not her actions truly constituted espionage had little bearing on her purported crimes, much less the intentions behind what she was doing.”
Can you tell us more about Rosehaven?
“It’s a village along the Sellen River, home to several hundred people. Its isolation shields it from the cycle of revolution, for the most part. Its people make their living primarily through farming and fishing.”
Why are your servants dressed that way?
Eliza sighs. “The ribbons represent the guillotine. Each of my servants has lost someone dear to them at the hands of the revolution. Here in my lodge, I can provide them some manner of protection from the outside world. They wear the masks so that their association with their relatives and confidants does not doom them to the same fate.”
What is the revolution?
“Galt has long been home to brilliant artists and philosophers, whose independent spirits produce a hotbed for new ideas. However, the recent history of Galt is a story of blood and turmoil. Ever since House Thrune came to power in Cheliax, Galt has been trapped in a churning cycle of revolution. Quite a few past governments have fallen, and their leaders and supporters have met the guillotine’s blade. Each new government promises to rectify the ills of the last and bring peace and prosperity.” Eliza flashes a knowingly wry smile. “As a citizen of Galt,” she announces with a veneer of patriotism, “I say that our current government will surely succeed at its goals.”
A PC can ascertain that Eliza doesn’t believe the current regime is any better than the last dozen, but she’s watching her words to avoid being considered an enemy of the state.
The Festival?
"It's a small, 3 day autumn fest dedicated to Shelyn. I heard that villagers hollow gourds, carve them with fanciful and even frightful designs, and then place lit candles within to ward off evil."
Do we have a formal letter?
"There is no formal letter. You will need to earn her trust to convince her to forgive the Society." Using diplomacy.
When you finish asking Petulengro your questions, the venture-captain invites you to enjoy the rest of the evening at Woodsedge Lodge. You have time to purchase any items you would like in Woodsedge before departing. It's a 10 day journey up the Sellen River to Rosehaven.

It is, thanks! I'm working as a cook/chef in a senior living community. I work in the Assisted living & Memory Care kitchens. When I'm done cooking & serving the 20 ppl in Memory Care, I run up to the 3rd floor to do the same in Assisted Living for about 35 residents. Both lunch & dinner.
Brat steps towards the cavern wall and lobs a magical glob of acid at Amber...
acid splash:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 for acid:1d3 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3(+1 force damage)
The rat scurries behind undead and bites the green foe. Nava herself reloads her stonebow.
[Dice=bite, flank]1d20+1+2
[Dice=damage]1d4
The rat may get an AoO from the undead. Maybe both. Going up steps is considered difficult terrain. You didn't mark on the map the movement the rat took. On my update, which I'm going to do soon, I'll go ahead and make the opportunity attack, just let me know if the rat's movement was enough to avoid the AoO.
Initially I planned the rat taking route indicated by arrows I drew. I'm not sure if 40 feet is enough in difficult terrain so I moved it two squares down where it would take AoO only from mint undead.
Since the rat has an intelligence of 2, I'm going to rule that the rat would attack the closest threatening creature. I do not think it has the mental capacity to make tactically advantageous decisions like moving all the way around a combat just to get to a creature and position itself in a flank. It would most likely attempt to make a direct route, scampering under creatures legs.

The link is in my profile for my 6th level feat.
Frequency: once per day.
Prerequisites: Unexpected Sharpshooter Dedication
Trigger: A creature targets you with an attack, even if you aren't aware of it.
Your enemy lies in wait, lines up the perfect shot, and pulls the trigger... then at just the right moment you duck down to notice something scrawled on the cobblestone in chalk, a shiny coin, or some other coincidental distraction, creating an opportunity for the attack to miss. The attacker must roll the attack twice and use the worse result.
It's been a long time, guys, more than two months. I apologize for such a disappearance. I've always said that this can't happen to me. And every time I've said "never" in my life, life itself "taps me on the nose" and shows me that "never say never".
** spoiler omitted **
I'm sorry for leaving you like that... I will appear on this forum for two weeks, and then I will leave again for a month on a yoga and meditation retreat. So there's probably no point in joining to this game, but in any case, I want to apologize again for disappearing like this. Life can be hard sometimes.

So sorry to hear. I'm helping to take care of 2 feral kittens and the mom that live behind my house. Been feeding the mom for weeks and the kittens look sickly, but, from what I've seen of feral kittens here in my yard in the past, they most likely will pull through.

Piotr steps forward to address the Captain.
“Captain, your words cut deep—and true. I’ve seen what you speak of: nobles shedding titles like snakeskins only to coil themselves tighter around power. I've walked halls where liberty is preached, yet behind the doors deals are struck no different from those in the Taldan Senate.
But I do not believe we must abandon all thrones to free the people. Milani fights for those who rise up and for those who tear rot from within. She does not demand we forsake every banner, only that we refuse to be blinded by them.
I am a baron by Taldan decree, but my hands are calloused from labor and bloodied in revolution. I do not wield my title to rule—I wield it to protect. And if I can cleanse my own homeland of corruption from within its courts, then I must believe the same is possible here. Not easy, not clean—but possible.
You take a daring road, and I do not fault you. The world needs firebrands willing to carry the flame where governments cannot. But as you march into the dark, know there are still those of us who remain in the halls and chambers, holding the line, fighting to ensure liberty isn't just a dream we export—but a truth we defend at home.”
Piotr sits back down, realizing he, too, has given a sermon.

"Great Baekho, Lord of the Seasons, White Tiger of the West,
I bow before your fierce wisdom and tempered strength.
As autumn’s winds strip the leaves from the trees, so too do you reveal the truth beneath the veil.
Grant me your courage to face the storms of life,
Your clarity to see the path before me,
And your fierce protection to defend the sacred.
May I honor the balance of nature and stand with strength and grace,
As you stand eternal, guardian of the western winds.
In your name, I pledge my vigilance."

As Kazuki's prayer echoed across the sacred bridge, the wind stilled, and a crisp, autumn breeze swept over him. For a heartbeat, a mist rose from the forest below, shaping into the ghostly outline of a great white tiger. Its piercing eyes met his, and a surge of warmth flooded Kazuki's chest — a fierce, steady courage settling within him.
Then the mist faded, and the forest stirred once more. But Kazuki felt stronger, his spirit bolstered. Baekho had heard his prayer.
Piotr accidentally smacks himself in the mouth with the table as he throws it aside when making a dash to rush after Halmont.
"Ouch!... Halth, Halmonth! You can'th geth far. We've barricaded all of the exiths! Come peathfully, or we'll need to yooth lethal forth!"

"Dear gods!!!" Kazuki exclaims as Lan's neck starts spouting blood like a fountain after being bit by a giant snake.
With an arrow nocked and the string drawn, he steps back to put more distance between himself and the giant snake. But as he does, his foot catches on an exposed tree root, causing him to stumble.
“Gah!” he yelps as the arrow is loosed unexpectedly. It hurtles straight toward Vekka—only to ricochet off his shield and at the snake instead!

For those interested, here's my inspire courage sea shanty that Corey was singing. I was going to post it on my next turn. But, luckily, the battle has ended.
Stormlash and Thunder:
A sea shanty for sand-weary souls in ancient Osirion halls...
"Oh the waves did roar and the sky did crack,
With a flash of white and the stars turned black,
Far from this dust and deathly gloom,
We sang through storms, not ancient tombs!
Heave ho, friends, let the desert fry,
We’ve braved worse under a wilder sky!
Raise your steel and raise your song,
We brave the storm and right the wrong!
With wind-split sails and spirits high,
We stared down gods and did not die,
Now stone walls echo phantom wails,
But we’ve seen worse—just different tales
Heave ho, friends, let the curses fly,
Let the jeweled dead give us their try!
Raise your steel and raise your song,
We brave the storm and march along!
So dream of sea spray, cold and free,
Not the sweat and ash of Osir'i,
Let the rhythm roll like breakers’ beat,
And feel that chill beneath your feet.
Heave ho, friends, to the fight we go,
Through wind or sand or deathly woe!
Sing it loud and sing it long,
We brave the storm and stand strong!

With the magical heart clutched tightly in one hand, Kazuki summons every last ounce of strength to reach the top. His limbs tremble, his vision swims, and exhaustion claws at him like a weight trying to drag him down. He isn’t sure he can make it.
Kugaptee’s massive hand coils around him like a vice.
Panic flares. Desperation kicks in.
With a grunt of defiance, Kazuki twists and writhes, trying to slip through the nightmare god’s grasp.

Bloodied and battered, he scrapes and scrabbles upward. His free hand finds the smallest cracks in the stone, while his toes dig into the wall for purchase. Every inch is a battle. But Kazuki climbs—because he must.
10 hp dmg knocks Kaz down to 14 hp. I will accept Auntie's healing (29 hp) if it's still on the table (putting him at 39 hp). I'm assuming the 2d6 in the dice expression is damage and not a typo for a Fortitude save. That's what had me confused. Also, I don't see anything abouthow much damage is taken from persistent void.
Didn't realize Kazuki gets +4 to saves from holding the heart. Fort save earlier (20 total) turns out to be a success (+4, DC 22), so, only 5 (half) damage. 48 hp total so far.
Would anyone mind reminding/updating me what the most cost-efficient way is for Wizards/Witches/Alchemists/niche-Vigilantes to learn new spells between adventures? I got some very good advice to that effect a while back, but IIRC it was long enough ago that it's possible something's changed since.
What I remember is that if the scroll is on the chronicle, or a player at the table has a spell you want, you do the rolls in front of the GM to learn the spell. You cross the scroll with the spell off the chronicle after the attempt, successful or not.
Get yourself a Wizard's Tower Vanity from PFS Field Guide.
Wizard's tower (8 PP):
You have your own wizard's tower, alchemical laboratory, or other secluded workshop where you can research new spells and formulae.
When scribing a spell or formula into a spellbook or fomula book from a scroll or another character, you can reduce the cost of materials involved by 10% (Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook 219).
This price reduction doesn't affect the cost of gaining access to the spell or formula to be copied.

Botting Ashtoret...
Ashtoret snaps out of her stupor, blinking away the lingering haze. Her eyes dart around the room, quickly taking in the chaos.
Then she spots Corey—locked in a desperate struggle with the ghostly Sage, barely holding his ground.
Without hesitation, she tears herself away from the shambling horde of undead and steps back a few feet (5' step).
"You there, undead Sage!" she calls, her voice sharp as steel. "Look into my eyes..."
The ghost turns, its hollow gaze meeting hers.
"You will obey me now." she sneers.
With a flourish of her arms, Ashtoret begins to weave an intricate, hypnotic pattern through the air—her magic coiling like a serpent as she attempts to bend the ancient spirit to her will.
Command undead, DC 17 Will save.
Command Undead:
As a standard action, you can use one of your uses of channel negative energy to enslave undead within 30 feet. Undead receive a Will save to negate the effect. The DC for this Will save is equal to 10 + 1/2 your cleric level + your Charisma modifier. Undead that fail their saves fall under your control, obeying your commands to the best of their ability, as if under the effects of control undead. Intelligent undead receive a new saving throw each day to resist your command. You can control any number of undead, so long as their total Hit Dice do not exceed your cleric level. If an undead creature is under the control of another creature, you must make an opposed Charisma check whenever your orders conflict.

Blood sprays across leaves and bark as Kazuki bursts through the forest, fresh lashings from animated branches tearing into him. Crimson streaks his skin and armor, his breath coming in ragged gasps.
“No.... no, no—I don’t wanna die,” he mumbles, voice trembling, eyes wide with panic. He barrels down the trail, the world a blur of shadow and pain.
He darts past Vekka, who holds a torch aloft—its golden flame casting a shaky pool of light in the choking darkness. For a heartbeat, Kazuki's bloodied face is lit in full—wild-eyed, streaked with terror. Then he's beyond it, into the dim edge of the torchlight, a fleeing shape swallowed by gloom and fear.

Kazuki howls in pain as he is lacerated by the whiping branches.
"I TOLD YOU!!! WE'RE GONNA DIE HERE!!!” He howls to his friends.
"Please!!! Spirits of the woods! Kamis! Please, HELP US!!!
Covered in his own blood, Kazuki dives for cover in the underbrush at the base of a tree, expecting the trees to whip about again.
He whimpers in fear for help from the forest spirits.
"Please, Kami spirits. Please help us." Religion (T):1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14
"I... *sob* Don't...*sob* want to die-e-e-e. *whimper and sob*"
Religion (T):1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
Ohhh nooo.
