Gnome's Adventure

Oh, hello and welcome to my cosy little home! I'm Gandrie, well, ahhh, you'd know that, with me being your Uncle! I know you've always wanted to go on one of my adventures, but you've never been quite ready... until now!. I've had to go up ahead, catch up with an old friend, but if you can prove you are ready by solving my little challenges and of course finding out where I've gone! Then I'll see you out there, adventuring! I've left a letter for you to read, it will help kick off today's challenges. Good luck!
