The FireWine Ruins are quite pointless, but if decide to clean them out here are two big tips to make the kobolds easier. first, leave the rest of your party behind at the entrance and have your tank (if you have one) go in and kill the kobolds. And second, use a Nymph Cloak to charm a few kobolds so they do the dirty work for you.
The only reason to go there is to fight "the best swordsman of the coast" and that ogre mage Kursk. They are both farely easy to kill and they give you some decent things to sell along with some exp points.
As for the Ulcaster School ruins, i think i remember hearing on this forum that the Ulcaster Ghost will give you an item if you retrieve something for him. But i have never fulfilled that quest before and i haven't gone to the school yet in my current campaign, so i don't have much of an opinion on the relavence of the school ruins.
