A Starfinder Society Scenario designed for 3rd- through 6th-level characters.
When relics of dubious provenance are discovered in the Starfinder Society's collection, revealing a famous Starfinder from the Society's early days as a thief and a fraud, a team of Starfinders are dispatched to Verces to return the relics to Qidel, mysterious Aerie of the Sun, and make amends to the strix from whom the relics were stolen. But forgiveness requires more than lost baubles and pretty words. Can the Starfinders take the first steps along the long road to reconciliation? Or will the sins of the past outweigh their efforts?

An excellent, touching, and at times troubling scenario that investigates the Societies past and how those who built the foundation of it sometimes took advantage of others to do so. How responsible are people who have benefited from, but didn't take part in such events? How can amends be genuinely made when those most directly harmed aren't alive anymore? It asks some hard questions and characters may have to consider things they haven't before.
Mechanically very sound with excellent challenges and fantastic roleplay opportunities.
It's certainly not for everyone, but if the themes and ideas presented are something that makes you feel uncomfortable perhaps it's worth a little self reflection and examining of why that is.
Please note that while this is technically a May release, it will not release to the public until June 1. More information can be found in this thread.

Seeing some talk about this one and might grab it once I get paid, despite not really being a Starfinder gal. This sounds like the kind of stories Society in both games could use more of.
