A little context
The GRV is talked about since the first chapter, and it is about the Live Role Play and Steph says he wants to organize. Initially, Gabe and little Ethan were supposed to participate, but after that death of Gabe, Steph decided to revisit his initial idea. In the second chapter in fact, seeing Ethan drastically down, Steph decided to readjust his GVR campaign to Ethan's comics, centered on the character of Thaynor the Monster Slayer. Alex will then find himself, in the next chapter, having to disguise himself as a bard, to accompany Ethan (in the role of Thaynor) in this new adventure.
Alex and Ethan's goal (assigned by Jed as King Tabor) in Life is Strange: True Colors LARP is to find (and we'll find out where) 3 gems scattered throughout Haven, so that he can end the age of monsters in the kingdom. For this GRV, all the explorable part of Haven will be totally transformed, and therefore the first advice we can give you is the one to give free rein to your exploratory spirit. Also because, in addition to gems, exploring around you can find scrolls, coins and other objects useful for your adventure.

As you can see in fact, most of the routes will be blocked, and we must therefore follow the only path available to Haven. When you are near the park exit, it will appear Ryan ambushing you dressed as a wolf, and so the time will come for a beautiful one Old-fashioned RPG battle. Remember to take a look at the character sheets if you don't remember the effect of Thaynor and the bard's attacks and spells. Once defeated, Ryan will drop some items as a loot, including one mysterious key. This key will be essential to find the first gem, that is the amethyst of the soul.
Once out of the park, go to the Black Lantern (for the occasion renamed "Taverna del gabbiano thirsty"). Inside you will find a (rather realistic) scenography of a massacre, of which the only survivor appears to be Duckie as an old gnome. At this point, Ethan will ask him if he recognizes the key, and Duckie will claim that it belonged to the old host who died in the massacre, and that therefore they will have to find the key. correct lock inside the tavern. The object you are trying to open is the music box positioned behind the counter, in front of the blackboard with the menu.

Steph has various items for sale in his store, including one Sapphire of the soul. Initially its cost will be well 10 000 gold coins (and it is clearly impossible to get that many), but if you try to bargain, Steph will instruct you to bring her the scale of a magic fish present towards the river. The fish in question is a sea snake (interpreted, like every enemy, by Ryan) who is at the end of the alley in fact, and you will have to defeat it to get the scale.
