Nearly 600 years ago, the ancestors of many of the
peoples occupying what is now Vidrian traded with the
civilizations to the south, using coastal shipping routes
and overland shortcuts to facilitate commerce. The
incursion of a Chelaxian colony disrupted many of these
relationships, and Cheliax methodically changed the flow

Getting Started
Mirian Raas (NG female human Pathfinder; art on page
38) has put out a call to fellow Pathfinders who are eager
for the kind of adventure the Society was founded for:
an exhilarating expedition into unknown. The PCs meet
Raas in the port of Vidrian’s capitol city of Anthusis,
which is located along the coast of the Mwangi Jungle.
Along with the PCs, Mirian Raas has also requested
the aid of the Horizon Hunters for the expedition. The
Horizon Hunters’ leader, Calisro Benarry (N female
half-orc sailor), eager to once again sail the seas, has
excitedly accepted Mirian’s call and brought along a
reliable group of her own to join the expedition. Calisro
has chartered two ships from the Pathfinder Society
in addition to her own Glorious Payoff, including the
Grinning Pixie, a Pathfinder Society ship formerly
captained by Calisro before she was finally forced to
follow the terms of a contract and turn it over to its new
legal captain, Eras the Needle (LG half-elf shipwright).
The third ship, the Sea Sparkle, is the smallest of
the three.
As soon as the PCs make it to Anthusis, they’re corralled
onto the Grinning Pixie, to meet up with Raas, her
adopted brother Jekka (male iruxi explorer), and some
of the Horizon Hunters. Mirian Raas amicably greets
everyone as they board the ship. A spark of excitement
glimmers in her eyes as she calls for the ship crew and
Pathfinders to gather around her for a briefing. When the
PCs approach Mirian, read or paraphrase the following.
“Welcome, explorers! As I’m sure you read in the bulletins,

we’ve been tasked with travelling to the iruxi island-city of
Ekkeshikaar on behalf of the nation of Vidrian, that we may
help negotiate the renewal of the alliance between the two
nations. The Vidric Council’s provided us with a map based
on ancient sea charts to help us get there, and we’ll be
compensated for our efforts!
“We’ll need to stay sharp, though—this route hasn’t
been traveled in centuries, and we have no idea what
might be out there. With the help of the Horizon
Hunters and my brother Jekka,” she lays her hand on
Mirian Raas the shoulder of the iruxi next to her, “I have no doubts
this will be a successful expedition!”
