Wizard of Wines

Situated in the midst of the vineyard, the winery is an old, two-story stone building with multiple entrances, thick ivy covering every wall, and iron fencing along its roofline. The trail ends at an open loading dock on the ground floor. A wooden stable of more recent construction is attached to the east side of the winery, next to the loading dock. West of the winery is a crumbling well and a wooden outhouse.
The party arrived at the Wizard of Wines after speaking with Urwin Martikov and Dmitri Krezkov not receiving any wine for weeks. The party spoke with Davain Martikov the Father of Urwin Martikov and found out that the vinyard had been attacked by druids and his family forced to flee the family home. Davain Martikov told the party the vineyard had 3 magic gems that allowed them to grown the grapes. One gem was lost under Urwin Martikov watch which had not been forgotten or forgiven.
The party had to fight their way across the vineyard as hundreds of Twig Blights arose trying to stop them. Constance & Red held the doors while Gaberial Hessia and Jakule explored the building. After dispatching the druids Gaberial identified one druids staff as Gulthias Staff and knew that burning it would destroy the remaining Blights.
Adrian Martikov was upset that someone had set fire to the Printing press... Hessia.
Davain Martikov told the party that his scouts informed him the druids were planning something big from Yester Hill and gave Jakule directions on his map. Gaberial confronted him about his "scouts" and pointed to the ravens.
Davain Martikov also told the party that he believes the other gem was stolen by a powerful witch called Baba Lysaga.
