End	Bartender
Appearances	Dragon Age: Origins

Correspondence Interruptus is a quest from the Favors for Certain Interested Parties board.

Background

"R" has a small request. "It's always useful to have a big name in your pocket, and there's nothing better than snagging them with their knickers down. If, in travels wide, someone were to come across notes between illicit lovers, I have certain specialists who can make the most of the texts." As you travel, keep an eye out for 12 of these notes. Bring twelve of them to the well-connected bartender for a reward.

Walkthrough

This list provides the location of the love letters and the first few words of each love letter in Codex entry: Correspondence Interruptus to help narrow down each letter location. The Codex is under the "Notes" section as entry 228, 230 or 243 on the PC (+4TSP, +10WK, +1RtO).

• My darling Reginald,
  Redcliffe Castle: a chest in the basement-cellar.

• You are filthy!
  Redcliffe Village: the crate in the Windmill.

• To Wareth Lowstone,
  Orzammar: a locked chest in Carta Hideout.
  Note: It is in the final room (specifically, the small bottom room) before the tunnel leads to Janar Armorers.

• Miss Ambrose,
  Brecilian Ruins: behind a secret door to the left, immediately after entering the Ruins Upper Level.
  Note: If you go down the stairs and down the ramp made from tree roots to that secret door, you have gone too far. Turn around and go back up the stairs and look to your right.
  
  
  Note: On pc, pressing TAB will only highlight the secret door when standing very close to it. Furthermore, you must first approach the secret door before it will highlight with your cursor.

  Haven: a locked chest in the Villager House just west of the entrance of the village.

  Denerim, Denerim Market District: the chest in Wade's Emporium.

Trivia

• The title of the quest comes from the Latin expression "Coitus Interruptus".
• Otter's Pocket is UK slang for female genitalia.

Bugs

• Sometimes, even after all twelve letters have been acquired, there will only be ten or eleven in the player's inventory, rendering the quest impossible to complete. The cause of this is unknown. The only solution to this is to enable the Console and manually add the 11th and 12th letters into your inventory. (PC only.)
