Type 'up' to leave the coffin."
The Graveyard is above the coffin. "It is nighttime and there are many graves, the more elaborate of which are closer to the entrance of the graveyard. To the north, you see the exit of the graveyard and the trail that leads to the village. You're determined to find out your cause of death."

The Cursed Path is north of the clearing. "You feel eyes on you and hear a very loud, ear-piercing scream. It must be the banshee, a death omen. You look around and see multiple ravens in the trees around you, another death omen. You keep heading north and see a shack that looks like it's been abandoned for decades. It is getting close to morning and you're getting tired, so you need to make this quick and then get back to the coffin to rest. There is a trail that will lead back to the graveyard to the west and south."
The Trail to the grave is west of the cursed path. "you are getting closer to the cemetery and the night is quickly disappearing."
The Cemetery is south of the trail to the grave. "You can see the tomb where you started. You can also see the sun peeking over the horizon, you must hurry to your tomb."
The Tomb is below the cemetery. "You have made it back to your resting place and figured out what killed you."
The Your amulet is in the tomb. The description is "This was very important to you because it was a gift from your late grandfather, which is probably why it was buried with you."

The Book is in the abandoned shack. The description is "It is written in a different language, likely latin. This book is probably a book of spells for a witch."
Instead of taking the book, say "Stealing from a witch doesn't seem like a great idea."
The trap door is below the abandoned shack and above the Witches Basement. "You see images of people hanging from a board on the wall and notice a picture of yourself. Above the pictures is a plaque that says 'The Chosen Ones.' 'Chosen for what?' you think. You look closer and it says that the chosen are to be killed as a sacrifice. After taking another look around the room, you decided that you got a good enough answer for your death and that it's time to return to your tomb."
The shack door is a closed openable door.
