Books
A stack of books can be found laying nearby.

Trunk
A large tree that appears to have various pieces of flesh and skeletons shoved into a hole in its side.

 * "Makes you wonder who was the sick one in this story..."

Skull
Beside the tree there is a glass container containing a large bird skull.


 * "The skull of a giant crow mixed in with various bits of mushed and mashed organs, entrails and local roots..."
 * "...connected to the bark of an old red giant tree."
 * "The perfect evil wizard starter kit..."

Luxurious chaise longue
A fancy longue with some opened books resting upon it.


 * "Varnished wood... satin pillows..."
 * "A bunch of leather bound books..."
 * "I wonder which noble had their personal garden here."

Chaise longue
A rougher longue with some gardening equipment resting beside it.


 * "Gloves, a pitchfork... Maybe a courtier tried their hand at gardening?"
 * "No, you wouldn't find one that would sit on such a shabby piece of furniture."
 * "Or wear this outfit."
 * "It seems the gardener had his entrances into the palace too."

Once the Beheaded says, "Or wear this outfit." the blueprint will drop.

Yeeter room
A room filled with the bodies of Yeeters and a human corpse.

 * "Yet another order to burn down the Arboretum"

Large water pipe

Scribbled note
At the opposite end of the entrance there is a spout attached to the pipe with a warning sign hanging from it.
