Cora Highberry is at a table at the wine festival southwest of Elfsong Tavern. Speaking to her, she tells the party she's about to taste some of "Master Meztli's" wine. A successful medicine check reveals that the wine smells sickly sweet, with an acrid note on the periphery, indicating poison. Then there will be the following dialogue options: | Cora Highberry is at a table at the wine festival southwest of Elfsong Tavern.
