If you read a chapter or so before (i cannot remember which) the red string message comes in trying to tell them to hurry up as they wont be able to delay the misfortune for long if they dont complete the red string quest. Before it got deleted and a new quest came through.
Im not quoting as i cant remember what it said exactly, but it was something along those lines of hinting at the red string, the boulder and the quests trying to put consequences on hold
my brain is too small for this.. I don't get what he said at the very end about the stone ending his misfortunes
