TL;dr: A group of adventurers try to find a Winery, discover that it is moving in time and space. They save a deposed fey Queen from some fey hirelings who wanted more money. Then nearly get lost in an enchanted forest, then encounter Garden of Flowers, who imparted some important information.
Future Adventure Notes:
•The Winery is hard to find, reported to be moving around in time and place.
•”Queen Prentensish” was ousted by her sister Diva from some fey court.
• Pudú reported to be a good fey.
•The news that the Urital cultists had captured a ghost alarmed Garden of Flowers who said it would be used to open a door in a tomb in the Altist and implied this would be very bad for everyone.
• Burbus in the Forest of Thorns has information related to the Urital/Altist situation.
