The lab is full of skeleton displays, mounted heads of beasts and even a stuffed bear. To the west end of the room is a store room with barrels full of alchemy supplies and potions, and a {{SmRarityItem|Rusted Key}} which opens the trapped gate on the east side of the lab. There is also a lever that will open a way back to the main cellar room. | The lab is full of skeleton displays, mounted heads of beasts and even a stuffed bear.

On the east side there is a gated off area which holds the real prize of this lab, {{SmRarityItem|Necromancy of Thay}}.

The book is set on a pressure plate that can be disabled with a {{Ability check|Sleight of Hand|10}}, or the turn-based mode can be used to take the book, then replace it with any other object or rush out before the fire bolt shooting gargoyle trap is turned on. | On the east side there is a gated off area which holds the real prize of this lab, {{SmRarityItem|Necromancy of Thay}}.
