Honor's Echo
Honor's Echo, a Pathfinder Quests collection for 1st-level characters written by Eleanor Ferron, Jenny Jarzabski, and Landon Winkler, debuted at Gen Con 2016 and was released on the Paizo store in August 2016.
“The grand Taldan Empire once controlled half of Avistan, but during the Even-Tongued Conquest, it could not manage an ongoing war with both its neighbor Qadira and the secessionist rebels in its outer provinces. As Taldor struggled to control its crumbling territories, its monarchs sought scapegoats for its failures, including the righteous war hero Countess Honaria Alcasti. Stripped of its nobility, her family has survived in obscurity for seven hundred years. However, her descendant Remaio has identified evidence that might redeem the Alcasti name and his ancestor's honor. Can the PCs help exonerate her name and bring glory to Taldor once more?
Honor's Echo includes six, 1-hour adventures that take the PCs from the verdant wilds of Andoran to the arid wastes of Qadira to the cultural heart of Taldor itself. Experience the adventures in any order to create a unique story.
