Litefoot's Wicker Hamper

A sturdy wicker basket with vertical slats woven tight enough to conceal small items while allowing airflow. It sits near the dining table, repurposed as a makeshift container for refuse. Litefoot tucks the bloodstained tablecloth—used to map sewer routes—into its depths, disguising forensic evidence before the housekeeper arrives. Its humble domestic purpose suddenly acquires secretive weight.
