Oh doh, that was dumb xD One question though: how do you get your first key? Buy it in a store?
Also why are you sending all your messages one week to the past?
1. Where is the First Key?
Keys are not purchased in Shops. Shops sell Battle Hats and Items, the former of which
are essential for Battle, so buy/find as many of those as you can.
Keys can be found by defeating enemies, bosses, found within dungeons or for
helping out NPC's. There are 5 in total.
2. Why am I sending messages to the past?
The game originally started in September. A good portion of the letters were pre-written
beforehand (e.g - hats, items, keys, enemy cards, shops, other places etc) this was so
that those letters would all be grouped together and kept in order, on my 3DS as well
as the players. If Nintendo had programmed some way to order or group Swapnotes
other than by date, this problem could have been avoided.
Not all of the letters will be in order (Dungeons etc) as the game is open to the whims
of the player and you can't anticipate everything players will ask or do in the game.
