Inside the same room, a cell vat can be found. The Beheaded will comment on it if inspected.


 * "This feels uncomfortably familiar..."

Boat
Behind a door there can be found a boat abandoned halfway through construction.

A soldier's remains
In a room with a desk, there is a skeleton laying on said desk, next to some weapons and pieces of armor. A note next to the desk reads:

 * "I'm staying here with a few of my men while the others are going back to the Castle, with all the Apostates' scrolls and books that we could gather."
 * "Maybe the Alchemist can find a remedy in there?"
