In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, a girl named Paula in [[Hammerlocke]] asks the player to deliver [[Old Letter|a letter]] to a boy named Frank in [[Ballonlea]].

This caused an argument and the boy ended up moving away shortly after. If the player returns to where Paula was, they'll find a [[Reaper Cloth]]. | |||
