This time that's December 31st, which probably makes these  adventures feel less like the December 2014 scenarios and more like a  capstone to an exciting year of <a href="http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety" target="_blank">Pathfinder Society Organized Play</a>  plus a wonderful ringing in of the new year—at least that's how I'm  going to brand it. Both adventures start with time-honored, familiar  concepts from 2014 and while pursuing new plots that make 2015  particularly worth celebrating.  One of the Society's old friends (and I use the term loosely)  resurfaced earlier in the season while Pathfinder agents investigated <a href="http://paizo.com/products/btpy9985" target="_blank">a case of magical espionage in Absalom</a>.  Venture-Captain Ambrus Valsin believes any threat to the city is a  threat to the Society, and an ally has since divined the the source of  these incursions: Stonespine Island, home to the infamous Okeno pirates  and a generous helping of gnolls. In <a href="http://paizo.com/products/btpy9a1z" target="_blank">Pathfinder Society Scenario #6-11: The Slave Master's Mirror</a>,  author Sam Polak sends the PCs through one of the most notorious slaver  cities on Golarion and into the rugged wilds to put an end to this  villain's plans.  Just over a year ago, new initiates to the Society received a  replayable opportunity to learn what it really means to be a Pathfinder  in <a href="http://paizo.com/products/btpy92ci" target="_blank">Pathfinder Society Scenario #5-08: The Confirmation</a>.  It remains one of the most popular scenarios published to date, and it  quickly became apparent that I should schedule a second Tier 1-2  adventure for release in Season 6. Back in the spring, Mark Moreland and  I concocted a basic outline that could match The Confirmation's  excellence, introduce newer players to another central feature of the  Society, and provide opportunities for replay with a different  experience each time. At PaizoCon, I pitched the idea to the author I  knew could handle such a challenge: Thurston Hillman. After months of  bouncing ideas off each other, I wrote a final outline, sent it off, and  let Thursty run with it. The result is <a href="http://paizo.com/products/btpy9a1y" target="_blank">Pathfinder Society Scenario #6-10: The Wounded Wisp</a>,  a mundane assignment that quickly spirals into a gripping investigation  of the Pathfinder Society's past that takes the PCs to some of the  Society's and Absalom's most famous sites in pursuit of centuries-old  secrets from the Grand Lodge's darkest days. It dovetails nicely with  The Confirmation, serving as a great prelude, sequel, or even standalone  adventure.  This weekend I had the pleasure of being back in Georgia for the  recent holiday and visiting a few of the Georgia PFS events. I can  proudly report that my 7th-level warpriest pregenerated character had a  blast in <a href="http://paizo.com/products/btpy8u8s" target="_blank">Pathfinder Society Scenario #4-06: The Green Market</a>, and the ranger Agna has finally dispatched the first of her many pirate rivals in <a href="http://paizo.com/pfsacg" target="_blank">the Pathfinder Society Adventure Card Guild</a> adventures. I hope that everyone else's end of year has been as satisfying."[/hq]</blockquote>
