Jean-Luc Out Of Luck

A little farther north and west, within the estate’s vineyards, is a basket of stale bread. A quick check using your Witcher Senses reveals a flattened area near to the basket where a blanket was laid out. A bottle of good vintage wine is discarded; it seems Jean-Luc was doing more than examining seedlings. A little farther down the hill are two sets of footprints.

Start a roughly northwest run down the hill. The first set of prints quickly turns to the path on your right. Ignore those, and head farther northwest, examining the man’s prints and following them into the woods.

At the edge of woods, near a tree stump, is evidence of human blood. By a second tree stump is a piece of horned carapace, and the start of some monster tracks.

A nearby rock has some straight claw marks perfect for digging. Further into the woods are felled trees as if something rolled over them. You have a feeling you’re dealing with a Shaelmaar. Follow and examine the large deep tracks, passing one cave entrance, to a second cave mouth close to Filament Stream.
