Where to Find the Oenus Vineyard Artifacts and Lore
The region features three Artifacts and three Lore items hidden across various side paths and corridors. To find Artifact #8, go through the opening on the right side of the main chamber. For the Lore entries, you must use the Otos' ability to reveal hidden text before interacting with them.
How to Cleanse the Lost Lion Fountains
During the Lost Lion quest, you must locate and cleanse four hidden corruption fountains scattered throughout Oenus Vineyard. Because these fountains are not marked directly on your map, you must check specific substructures:
- Fountain #1: Travel south of the balcony campsite, drop down the large shaft while defeating Bloody Remains, Leeches, and Nosoi Hags, and enter the room with the fountain. Destroy the three red orbs surrounding it while managing incoming enemy spawns.
- Fountain #2: Head southwest from the objective marker, navigate down the ladder, and proceed west past Wraiths and Legionnaire Guards. Light the three braziers with your Evergreen Flame to lower gates for a chest containing an Iron Bar, then proceed to the fountain room to destroy its three orbs.
- Fountain #3: Head northeast from the balcony campsite through the long hall, prioritize the Onyx Strix, and follow the linear path north to the third fountain corruption.
- Fountain #4: Travel northwest into the room featuring a large bronze pot. Use your slingshot to hit the four targets—one on each floor—to ascend to the top, then drop down a floor and head right to locate the final fountain room.
Unlocking Chests, Coffers, and Secret Encounters
Beyond the main path, Oenus Vineyard holds several specialized chests and combat encounters required for 100% region completion. The Vermilion Globe requires 250 orbs to activate. To reach the Iron Crate, you must light up three bowls in the same area using fire. Meanwhile, the Armory Depot houses the Alke's Memento Gouri, which becomes accessible after you clear out the local enemies and interact with the nearby grave marked by A Grave Mistake.
