5. Improvised Warehouse

This room is fairly large and also has ceilings that are unusually high for the cave, standing at almost 8 feet. All around you, crates and barrels are neglectfully disposed, hinting that they have already been searched and likely emptied of their content. There are about twenty crates, all piled up in a disorganized fashion, as well as a dozen empty barrels in this room. A few old rusty and broken tools can also be found, though nothing is still serviceable. If the PCs spend one turn going through all the crates though, they will find one that contains a small terracotta statuette representing an elephant. It is 1-foot wide and 8 inches tall. Obviously, such creatures are unknown in these parts of the world and this statuette will appear quite exotic unless one of the PCs comes from a savanna-like or a jungle region. The elephant figure is quite old and missing its left ear, right tusk, and left back leg. Even if it appears quite primitive and damaged by time, the statuette displays an interesting level of detail. If broken or otherwise opened, the PCs will realize it is actually hollow and contains a small jute bag in which 700 cp, 300 sp, and 30 gp are hidden. The coins are exotic looking, having been minted in a far away land. There is nothing else of value and no threat in this room.
