EDIT: solved the first one. Waaaaay easier. Thanks a lot for changing it.

Your grandma had always been a person of mystery. During the many days you spent with her, she bestowed upon you her furtive stories and cryptic puzzles in exchange for your company. It’s not far-fetched to say that the erratic afternoons spent under her cherry tree had hardened you into quite the little puzzler. Despite such a relationship, most of her life was still very much shrouded in mystery. One of many said conundrums was a red metal 3-digit safe that she always kept near her bedside table. When you asked about it, she only smiled innocently.

She was as much a mystery in death as in life. She passed peacefully, leaving many unanswered questions and exactly one missing safe.

At the very spot where the massive scarlet container had been only days before, there was in its stead a small pile of snow white envelopes, each stamped with a blood red seal. They are each filled with several papers adorned with incoherent letters and symbols.

Here you have the entirety of grandma’s letters. Without physically searching, these clues are all you require to uncover the location of the safe somewhere on the grounds of her mansion and the 3-digit combination to unlock it.

each envelope contains a single digit of the lock combination in order

the last envelope contains the location of the safe

this is an enigmatic puzzle which means I will not explicitely state the solving strategy

that being said... the methods to crack these codes are all very fundamental in the world of puzzles and should not be very hard to find

the reward is two stacks of LE for the first person to PM me via forums: the 3 digit combo and the location of the safe

you may discuss, but note that only the first person to answer will receive the reward

DO NOT POST THE ANSWER ON THIS THREAD, PM me instead

Each envelope has individual clues and a single answer and is not in any way affiliated with the other envelopes! Clues are not inherited

Note: it gets harder as you progress. The first envelope is the easiest to crack!

You carefully open the first envelope. There are two notes.

The first:
2-12-6 8-19-12-6-15-23 25-22 26-25-15-22 7-12 8-12-15-5-22 7-19-22 24-12-23-22 4-18-7-19 22-26-8-22

The second:
xhwjmrkxhiymx oxxleusqbaretasrikxlrwi

And this is the easiest envelope? You're surprised, but not discouraged.

I had changed this envelope as the previous one had some steep jumps in logic. I genuinely don't think anyone could have solved it- it was a poorly written riddle added last second. Keep in mind that this is not the current envelope answer! For that, look at the puzzle above.
As per request, here it is anyways.

the key to this riddle is a golden king
of whom the ancient scriptures sing
strike down the first of more
and too the third of boars
and take the first of the scriptures
you get indeed a puzzling mixture
plenty you add to the second
though with t instead of p
and turn it all around
the answer is plain to see
now part the two,
for you only need one

Solution:
the key to this riddle is a golden king // M I D A S
of whom the ancient scriptures sing
strike down the first of more // take away "M" = I D A S
and too the third of boars // take away "A" = I D S
and take the first of the scriptures // take away "S" = I D
you get indeed a puzzling mixture
plenty you add to the second // you add something to "D", which is 4
though with t instead of p // add 20 to 4, gives you X = I X
and turn it all around // X I
the answer is plain to see // roman numerals for 11
now part the two, // seperate the 11
for you only need one // ...and you are left with "1", the first digit

Scrawled disorderly across the exterior of the letter is a single phrase. Lost at sea. You ponder what it could mean.

3. 1.1- 3. 3. 1. 1. 1.1- 1.1- 3. 1. 3. 3. 1.1- 3. 1. 1. 1.1- 1. 1. 3. 1.1- 1. 1. 3. 1.1- 1.1-2. 1. 1- 1- 1. 1.1-1. 3. 2. 1-1. 3. 1-1.1-1. 1.1- 1.1-1. 1.1-2. 1. 1- 2- 2. 1-1. 2.1- 3. 3- 1-1. 1. 1.1- 3. 3. 1. 1.1- 3. 1. 1. 3. 1.1- 1.1- 1. 3.

A N U D M O B K F P E N R A V P F L O F
W R U Y Q E D A R T X G O P L H X A D S
X E X F S D Q P Q D G Y G R I T E W S I A

L H J U S G Y U H S K A S U H Y S I E U L
K J N A U H U J U L U Q X G S D R F A Q

To your surprise, the third envelope contains only a single image with a cryptic message.

You are not quite sure what to make of the strange symbols you find on a single sheet of paper in the last envelope.

Luckily, this is something you saved from the early days when the mansion was purchased. You can still remember going from room to room, scanning the marble walls with curious eyes.
You never knew the floor plan would serve such a purpose. You are relieved.

irrelevant to the puzzle, the image source

The reward is 2 stacks of LE.
Where is the scarlet safe, and what is the lock combination?

Happy hunting!

9/22 - giveaway posted. happy hunting!
9/23 - changed up the first envelope as the previous riddle was a bit far-fetched and imperfect. seems like nobody started it anyways so it's alright. also edited the second puzzle to be more aesthetically pleasing (there are no changes to the puzzle itself)

Sorry, i rered the thread. This is really crazy though, it's for INDIVIUAL people and you can't do it as an community? (well the prize is 2 stacks of le, so fair enough.).

Ikr? Well it doesn't matter, this puzzle is hard nonetheless. Just one quick glance, and I don't have a clue on how to solve anything!

Why is mysteries the new giveaways? Back in my day, you would just put your IGN in and then one noob (recruit) would win and everyone would say rigged.

I am gonna make the most complicated giveaway one day just to go with the trend.

I still love you Grandma Ryuu

I don't think it can get any more difficult than this.

I didn't even know about Jamie's giveaway lmao... His was creative and I'm using some similar techniques (as using anything too obscure would be too hard) but I assure you that it is completely unaffiliated with mine. The timing was a complete coincidence. I got into this kind of thing a week ago and here I am now ;D

Also, this isn't hard at all if you know about it! If you're looking at the mess of numbers without any knowledge of what it is, then of course it looks intimidating. Again, I will be posting all the solutions after the giveaway comes to an end (which I think it may very soon, actually...).
