OUT OF ANARCHY

The view southward from Whaler’s Point.
Diabolism’s yoke enslaves us all
From false Egorian! Of Westcrown born,
Through Thrunish veins no longer flows the blood
Of Cheliax, but that of men unsouled—
From Chelish lips, ’tis not the Queen who speaks,
This whore of Asmodeus, but her love,
To sing you to a sleep where one forgets
That once we were a nation of free men.
Awake! To arms! Throw off complacency,
Or die as livestock willfully enchained!

This document, filed in triplicate, serves as a record of the bargain between
Magarius Charthagnion, son of Parvanus Charthagnion, and the devil Krathurex.
The terms of the contract are as follows.
Section 1: Obligations and Restrictions Upon Krathurex
Within one Golarion hour after both parties sign this contract, the devil Krathurex
shall provide to Magarius Charthagnion the value of 25,000 gold pieces, in the form
of legal tender in the nation of Cheliax. This money shall be provided for Magarius
Charthagnion’s use, without interference by the devil Krathurex or any of his allies
or subordinates. The devil Krathurex affirms that he is not aware of any action that
his superiors plan to take that would provide interference. For the purposes of this
contract, “interference” refers to any action, willingly and knowingly taken, that
obstructs Magarius Charthagnion’s free use of the provided money, that attempts
to deprive Magarius Charthagnion of other money or property, or that attempts to
cause harm to Magarius Charthagnion. For the purposes of this contract, “harm” is
defined as….
Section 6: Obligations and Restrictions Upon Charthagnion
… Magarius Charthagnion will be provided the agreed-upon sum to use as he sees
fit, without restriction or interference, as specified in Section 1. The devil Krathurex
or one of his representatives will respond to summons pursuant to the repayment
within a period of one week after the issuance of such a summons, as specified in
Section 4. The devil Krathurex will not attempt to contact Magarius Charthagnion
without Magarius Charthagnion’s prior request and approval, as specified in Section
5. If the eldest son of Parvanus Charthagnion pays the value of 30,000 gold pieces to
the devil Krathurex or one of his representatives before the date of 01 Abadius 4717,
the responsibilities of all signatories of this contract will be discharged. If the loan is
not repaid in the specified manner by the specified date, the devil Krathurex shall gain
legal possession of the soul of Magarius Charthagnion in perpetuity….
EXCERPT FROM AN INFERNAL CONTRACT….
Pezzack! Imagine my pleasant surprise to hear I’d have agents
in the heart of Cheliax’s rebellion. My task for you is simple,
but subtle: push the long-suffering Pezzacki toward embracing
their own freedom. We know of the White Thistles spreading
creative dissent and Galtan agents preaching their own bloodier
revolution, but in Pezzack we find little reason to discriminate
against any force for freedom. While you have such a rare
opportunity in such an inspirational city, also seek out an original
folio of songs or poetry by the legendary Amalia Wraxton to add
to our collection. If you can both inspire the Pezzacki and return
with fresh inspiration from them, we can promise secret training
in the skills that best suit your methods.
Best of luck!

My dearest agents of the Dark Archives, I’ve heard you’ve been
whisked away to feel the glistening lash of the sea before being
plunged into Cheliax’s most rotten apple. As you likely know, I have
many friends in my old homeland who now hold me in the lowest
esteem. Their faded loyalty pains me in the least interesting ways,
but more importantly to the Dark Archives, I no longer have access
to secrets they hold that can potentially unlock items of diabolic
import retained in our Vaults. You must find information about
Phelerosa Ciucci, a bastard daughter of minor Chelish nobility,
and deliver her secrets to me—or better yet, return with her—and
we might not only further our knowledge but also find certain…
negotiations open to us in the future. Excel in your task and I will
share some secrets of my own with my newest favorite agents.
Your colleague in the dark,
Zarta Dralneen
