• Quest Text: <spoiler text="Show Text">Barkeeper Henry Walker: What is that letter you got there? Oh, that looks like the page from a diary. From the year 1527. You should try to put it together properly

May 28th, 1527 I've known Juan de Ojeda for over twenty years now. We fought against hunger side by side in our home town of Cuenca, we fought against the disease on the way to new Spain, we fought on Cortés' side in Tenochtitlán against the Aztecs, we battled Olid the traitor in Honduras, and yesterday we fought our last battle at the Río Grande. Now I have to fight the sadness by myself. You have been a faithful and brave man, respected enough to have Hernando lay his sword in your grave.

That seems to be the letter of one of Hernando Cortés' soldiers. Cortés was a Spanish conquistador who fought against the Aztecs. Waupee won't have anything good to say about him. Maybe you could take a look at Juan de Ojeda's grave. If Hernando Cortés really put his sword into the grave, it would make an excellent weapon.</spoiler>
