Does "harrowing mysteries" hint at harrow decks and the like or am I reading too much into the choice of wording?
You are reading too much into the wording; Sargava is about as removed from Varisia as you can get. But you're always welcome to lift some of the Harrow rules from Curse of the Crimson Throne or use the Harrow Plot Twist suggestions from Occult realms to give your PCs some direct and second chances. If you feel like borrowing the Crimson Throne harrow rules, I would highly recommend Wisdom or Constitution as the dominant suit for this adventure.

And yet another Module for 1st level PC's.
I know! After years of nothing. Isn't it awesome?
I'm glad to see Paizo remembering that all beginning GMs and players need content, too. I hope the recent dearth of low-level content is not revisited, as it has been a real struggle to get people interested in the game when they have nothing to play.

Funny, and here I thought there was a great deal of low-level modules you can choose from.

Not one of which is still in print. Meanwhile, I can still buy high level adventures as old as the 3.5 stuff Paizo used to make. When my distributors are out of every single 1st level adventure, including recent Adventure Path volumes, there is a problem.

To be fair, the same can be said about all level tiers. There's a very solid range of levels covered by Paizo's products (and 3PP as well), and yet we all want more. :)

"The Godsmouth Heresy", "Murder's Mark", "The Dragon's Demand", "Risen from the Sands" (and "We be Goblins") are all still in print and available.
I don't know why you can't get them, as even my local flagstore owner in germany keeps them in stock with no problem.But more 1st level adventures are always good because once you played the few available ones you need more.

No, they are not. Distributors do not have them in stock, nor are they listed as an item that can be backordered. That means they are out of print. Paizo may still have copies, but they are not distributing them through retail channels any longer. Your store may have had an overstock of them, which I used to maintain as well. They're just all gone in the US, now.
By the way: "Risen From the Sands" is not a 1st level adventure. It and "We Be Goblins" are also Free RPG Day modules, and not available through retail channels.

That is interesting to hear and of course you are right to want more entry level modules (and with what you said about Risen from the sands and We be goblins) .
There were some people asking for a reprint of Crypt of the Everflame in conjunction with the re-release of the flip-mat classics: dungeon.The Godsmouth Heresy and Murder's Mark are also pretty old and only limited numbers of those remain in Paizo stock.
But in november 2015 there were still more than 1000 of "The Dragon's Demand" in Paizo's warehouse.
It is odd that they don't offer that module to retailers.
I wish you a good business, Drogon.

Let me join in the chorus of those applauding the creation of another adventure for low-level characters. As it will take characters to 6th level it looks to be more in the vein of The Dragon's Demand than some of the more recent modules. Don't take that as a complaint, I think that's awesome.
I hope it will be sanctioned for PFS play either at release or shortly thereafter.

I like low level modules, too. Ire of the Storm looks great! I have to say that I miss - just a little - the smaller modules. Of course the 64 pagers are terrific because of the depth of content. The smaller jobers require less of a commitment and allow for something closer to sandbox play. Anyway, not complaining. Just typing out loud.

This looks like a great module! A low lvl adventure but it allows players to get to sixth lvl. This and dragons demand allows players to really sink their teeth into the Pathfinder system without having to worry about an adventure path.
I hope this is sanctioned as well. Of course, with hated Aspis Consortium about, why wouldn't it?

Good timing for this one; just about to start the Serpent's Skull AP and I was looking for a little more material in that part of the world to draw upon for my players to keep them from feeling railroaded, especially early on in the adventure. And since one of the players has said he wants to play a lizardfolk, that's even better. :)
