Beneath Unbroken Waves, a Pathfinder Society scenario written by Tom Phillips for tier 12–15, was released in July 2018. It is the final scenario of Season 9 of the PSRG, the Year of Factions' Favor.

“

Using misdirection and misinformation, the Pathfinder Society has cornered a pair of its old enemies—a demoniac and an assassin—in the Five Kings Mountains. However, the two have taken refuge inside a sacred dwarven burial ground sacred to Magrim, and their desperate defenses have stymied the dwarves' initial assaults. It falls to a team of the Society's best agents to overcome these obstacles, avert impending blasphemies, and end these villains' treachery forever.

Contents in "Betrayal in the Bones" also contribute directly to the ongoing storyline of the Grand Lodge faction.
