Undermining The Peasants Of Flovive

Previous conversation with Lazare Lafargue has him recall a towering Witcher who haggled with Tyen’Sail like a fishwife, and pledged to bring them coin after completing a contract at the Tufo vineyard. The Tufo estate is across the lake to the east, in Sansretour Marsh, but the exact location is slightly further southwest, in the village of Flovive. When you enter the north area of the village, one of the buildings looks particularly unstable, with caved-in foundations.

The building is unsafe for habitation, and there’s little of note inside. But pass through or head around into the back yard, and there’s a sizable dip in the earth; a sagging area where rocks and wood have fallen over a hole that used to lead to a wine cellar. Use Aard and clear the entrance.

This leads to an abandoned wine cellar, which is devoid of anything but the least desirable plonk. However, there’s something glittering in the first alcove on your right, as you enter. It’s a chest with three diagrams, and a journal of the building’s owner regarding Tufo’s contract with a Witcher “as big as a mountain and bearded as a dwarf.” There’s a claim of a subterranean monster near a stream; that’s your next area of investigation.
