Understanding Nathaniel’s Preferences
Before diving into the process, it’s important to understand what makes Nathaniel tick. Gifting items that align with his interests will rapidly increase his friendship level. Here are his favorite items:
- The vase
- The Locksmith tools
- The whetstone
- The sextant
- Delilah’s letters

Gifting these items will yield a higher relationship boost than other items. Engaging in conversation and doing quests that will allow you to get more familiar with the way he thinks and what he prioritizes in life.
Dialogue and Unlocking Hearts
Notice if Nathaniel’s relationship is locked at 14 hearts, it likely means that you haven’t experienced all his dialogue yet. This is often caused by missing a date opportunity that will allow you to gain some extra heart points. These are unique dialogue interactions that are tied to quests that can be missed if the player does not accept them or misses the deadline.
Gifting Love Letters
Gifting a Love Letter to Nathaniel unlocks the next five hearts on his relationship meter. Remember, you need to give a Love Letter before you can reach the second row of hearts!
The Engagement and Wedding
After reaching the 15 heart mark, you are ready to propose! The Engagement Ring can be purchased from Bernard at the Town Hall for 100 Community Tokens. When you give the ring to Nathaniel, it functions like any other gift. If he accepts the proposal, the wedding will take place at 4:00 PM the following day. The wedding itself is an automatic event, and there is no option to customize it.
