I received Violet’s goodbye letter in the mail tonight.
Of course other villagers have also used this letter before, and I never really understood it. She said she hopes we bump into each other in Forest, but that’s not really possible in this game. Villagers are already gone by the time we get the goodbye letter.
Tom asked me to make a delivery to Puck, and it almost felt like I was playing in my GameCube town. What a throwback. 🙂 Tom and Puck have both lived in my GameCube town for over a decade.
Gala asked me for a new greeting, and I didn’t want to disappoint her by not helping. So I told her to say “Fry my sausage!” It’s just a general pig thing, and nothing personal. I wouldn’t fry Gala. 😛
I found Saharah the carpet-trader nearby, standing by that same ramp. Today she was looking for old wallpaper.
So I began asking my villagers for wallpaper. I couldn’t ask Kitty, though, because she was locked out of her house.
After completing my first trip around town, I still hadn’t run into Puck. But I eventually found him just south of the fountain…standing right next to Tom! So I gave him the delivery from Tom. He told me to thank Tom for him, even though Tom was standing right there. 😛
But I did thank Tom anyway, and he rewarded me with 532 bells for making the delivery.
As for the wallpaper search, Goldie and Puck each gave me some. But I had none in storage, and I was still one short of a special wallpaper from Saharah.
There was one option left, but it meant helping Kitty. So I went fishing in the river for her key. Thankfully, I found her key on just my 3rd try! When I took it over to her, she thanked me with a lovely wall. And with that quest completed, I was finally able to ask her about old wallpaper. To my surprise, she actually had one for me!
I took the three old wallpapers back to Saharah, and I exchanged them for a (rare) bathhouse wall.
