if you haven't taken a look yet, the notes page on game gives hints about what needs to be done to proceed.
Spoilers below for last two notes of the game: (For others who might be reading this lol)
For the second to last note, I believe you have to NOT brew a second cup of tea for the adventurer, then serve Horns his favorite drink. For the last note, you have to put 3 tangy berries and serve that to the adventurer when you offer a second drink to him.
