It isn't often gods die, but Aroden's enigmatic demise on the eve of his prophesied return, when he was said to usher in an age of glory for humanity, had more ramifications than his simple death. For when Aroden died a century ago, prophecy died with him. Since that day, in what has come to be known as the Age of Lost Omens, foretelling no longer works as it should, and a prophecy is more likely to be completely inaccurate than hold even a sliver of truth.

When Yivali, a nosoi psychopomp in the service of the goddess of death, uncovers a series of foretellings called the Godsrain Prophecies as part of her research into the nature of divinity, she uncovers a vast web of predictions of the forthcoming death of another deity, and the ramifications of such.

Follow along as Yivali digs into the prophecies, noting their contradictions and unsettling suggestions, and learn about the mysterious seer who penned them. Explore the secrets of the Godsrain, an event strangely absent from the prophecies that bear its name, yet which is detailed in such Pathfinder Roleplaying Game releases as War of Immortals, Prey for Death, and the Curtain Call Adventure Path, as well as the Pathfinder: Godsrain novel by Liane Merciel. Dig into the exciting world of Pathfinder and the War of Immortals event today!

Originally published as a series of blogs on Paizo.com, this collection includes expanded annotations by Yivali and brand-new content exploring the identity of the mysterious seer behind the prophecies.

Written by Erin Roberts.

Good repackaging!

5/5 —

There's not a lot of new text, but what is there does a LOT of work to recontextualize and push the original "Prophecies" to new heights.
I'm now reading a lot more into them. :O
... And I wonder if we will learn more about the writer than we do here...
But yeah, it was a great read before the Godsrain novel, and really enriched the reading of the novel.

I just bought this and downloaded it, but when I click on it it tells me I need to download the Audible app?

Is this a pdf or an audio book?

*** Nevermind***
I needed to download a different reading app, I use Xodo for all my pdfs but needed a ebook app.

It's SO GOOD! I love Liane Merciel's writing! I can't wait for the full novel!

And it's also very nice to read the Prophecies with extra annotations, setup on my book reader, comfortably laying on my couch in a nice blanket. :3

Definitely seems like they may be setting up some plot points for future content as well

this one was written by erin roberts no?

So I'm a bit confused by this product. I bought it because it looks like it is a novel, but when reading it, it looks like it's mostly just the blog posts and a little more context around them?

Is this just $5 for what is basically a collection of blog posts, or will this download also include a novel being published later?

It is just the blogs and the additional context.

It's the blogs, with extra annotations, and with new chapters at the start, the end, and a couple instered between prophecies. The extra chapters recontextualize the prophecies, revealing some stuff about the in-world writer.

Oh yes! I'm verry sorry that I wasn't clear, my first comment was about the preview of Liane Merciel's novel at the end.

Epubs are ebook files, so you can use Calibre, the Kindle program, etc.

Well this was really fascinating to read and holy crap that preview of the upcoming Godsrain book ._.; Like if all of those small glimpses are foreshadowing for future setting events, that's some really really big implications
