2.Investigate The Strange Letter

The following letter was sent to the Blacksmith:
Dear Oswald, you're special to me in ways I can't even describe. Tall! Strong! A Blacksmith! What else could you want? I miss you and think of you daily. So what if we're oceans apart? My heart belongs to you only, you see, no matter the distance. The struggle of putting my feelings for you on paper keeps me awake under star-fired nights.

4.Explore Jasper Isles

The Conway brothers traveled through Umber Hollow, where they were attacked. It seems like the Blacksmith was meant to receive an item, which was left behind in a town called Jasper Isles when the Conways fled. The note the Blacksmith received seems to be a farbrication of the Conways, since the original note was lost alongside a gift.
