Winged Sandals
Today, the Blue Tower is home to the Winged Sandals , an order of messengers dedicated to Iomedae. They trace their history to a decree from Aroden commanding them to bear messages anywhere in the world on demand. The Winged Sandals have a wide and centuries-old reputation for courage, determination, and reliability, and are considered one of the best options for conveying urgent, high-stakes missives to remote and perilous places. They also handle the majority of the normal mail services used by citizens of Absalom, employing an army of messengers and package delivery experts that work exclusively within the city in addition to a smaller number of highly traveled (and very expensive) worldwide couriers.
A number of the Winged Sandals’ more experienced traveling agents are veterans of the Worldwound and have considerable experience not only in navigating hostile terrain and avoiding wily adversaries, but also with using layered encryption, code-augmenting illusions, and other techniques designed to ensure that no message can be deciphered by unauthorized foes. The Winged Sandals also specialize in communications magic of all varieties and developed innumerable interception methods for purposes of testing interception-avoiding techniques.
