Location and finding the winery
The Winery is an independent location associated with Mannshire, not a room inside the town. Its position is chosen during world generation, so use the map, discovered locations, roads and quest journal in your current save when planning the trip.
After accepting the quest, its clues reveal the nearest suitable Steppe camp selected from the winery area; the quest presents that camp as Camp. It does not use one fixed coordinate in every save.
Quest characters
Ask Wyot about the stolen wine at the winery, then seek a clue from Elva. Halmar's presence depends on quest progress: after the camp confrontation, he appears back at the winery if persuaded to return voluntarily or sent back while wounded.
| Character | Role in the quest |
|---|---|
| Wyot | Offers the quest and receives its report at the winery. |
| Elva | Provides the free clue leading to Camp. |
| Halmar | The worker who fled and the subject of the camp confrontation. |
Stolen Wine's Always Bitter
Find Wyot at the winery, ask about the stolen crate and the worker who fled, then decide whether to accept the request. Refusing Stolen Wine's Always Bitter does not start it; while the quest has not started, you can speak with Wyot again later.
After the quest starts, you can get a free clue from Elva, or ask a winery worker and pay 20 crowns. Both investigation routes reveal Camp, and you do not need both. After recovering the quest crate, return to the winery and report to Wyot.
See the full quest article for the camp confrontation choices, crate requirements, three reporting outcomes, lodging unlock and failure consequences.
Lodging and trading
After a successful report to Wyot, lodging becomes available in the winery loft. The quest's reporting node explains the required crate and possible outcomes.
Failing the quest affects Mannshire reputation and increases Wyot's personal selling-price modifier. See the quest article for the triggers and pricing explanation.
Official description
During the battle for Mannshire, the vineyards were burned, the winery was razed to the ground, and whatever was left in the cellars was guzzled down by soldiers.##Fortunately, the Great Magistrate's money brought this place back to life, and now nothing here reminds of these not-so-distant events.
