The package from your pen-pal appears again. You've been wondering when it was going to show up. It has been months since you last worked on it!
Hopefully your friend has made the final modifications you require. You'll have to mail it soon so it reaches John in time!
Author commentary: Just because we're gradually introducing all these mysterious new trolls doesn't mean we can't take a moment to seed yet another long, slow-boiling mystery that will eventually lead to the introduction of an entirely different roster of new characters. That's what the "Jade's pen pal" plot thread is, which doesn't yield dividends until Act 6. Is this actually an intriguing morsel in the context of everything else that's going on? Are we suffering from intrigue overload yet? Hell if I know. My policy was, when in doubt over whether to throw more shit into the story: throw more shit into the story.
