Possible Thief Note Scavenger Quest (Dayspring Canyon)

Hi everyone!

I’m hoping someone here might be able to help me identify a quest I remember from a past Skyrim/Dawnguard playthrough.

I believe it was a vanilla quest, either a miscellaneous or non-journal one. I distinctly remember it involving letters/caches from a thief many years ago, addressed to a companion or accomplice. The letters seemed to lead to a few different hard-to-find locations in Dayspring Canyon. From what I remember:

- One location was near or inside an old fort ruin close to Fort Dawnguard

- One was near (or in) Aradgad Lake

- Another may have been near the first entrance to Mossy Glen Cave, or up in a rocky/snowy area (possibly near a fallen tree?)

I don't see any evidence of those letters on this playthrough, or any ruins near the Fort, so I'm not sure if it's just a false memory, there's a similar quest somewhere else, or I had a random mod installed that I don't remember.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?

Thanks in advance for any insight! :)

Update: The quest is A Ring of Keys from Oblivion, not Skyrim. I think I merged parts of a Skyrim run with an Oblivion Remastered one in my memory. :lol:
