Overview
A workshop that smells of pine and varnish. Henrik's rooms open off one side; the storeroom off the other, its door scored where the bolt has been forced and mended more than once.
Resting: no Not among the coffins. Not with the storeroom so quiet.

People
- Henrik van der Voort, Coffin Maker: Workshop (#2)
What to find
| # | Where | What | How |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | a small crate | Bones of St. Andral | open it |
| 4 | Cashbox | 20 gp | lock DC 12; Henrik van der Voort's, so taking is theft |
| 5 | a coffin with a false bottom (hidden) | Slippers of Spider Climbing | Search: Investigation DC 14 |
The containers here also get random magic items and potions, rolled for a party of level 5 the first time you come (Random Treasure). Hidden finds need a Search (F) nearby; the party's best roll counts.

Order book
Henrik's order book. Coffins, mostly child-sized this year. One entry stands apart, in a shaking hand: Bones, one set, from M. Paid 20 gold. Below it, a list headed DELIVERIES, with no names: six crates, to be kept in the storeroom, not to be opened, not to be moved, not to be mentioned.
