How to use the Storeroom Key in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

The Storeroom Key is an item you’ll find while exploring Belurat in Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. When you pick it up, you’ll already be past where you need to use it, so it’s easy to miss the door it unlocks — and the NPC you’ll meet inside. Our Elden Ring DLC guide will walk you through where to find the Storeroom Key and the Storeroom, and what to do with the NPC inside, Hornsent Grandam.

Take out the Horned Warrior, and then turn left. You’ll be at the top of the waterfall that falls down to the fountain square from earlier in your exploration. Stick to the right (north), to find an alley that leads around to the other side — watch for Shadow Undead as you go.

There’s nothing to do with her yet, but she’s creatively insulting. Unlock the other door just to have more options — it’s not really a shortcut, but it does give you the drop on the Shadow Undead in that dead end. She’s got some rewards with you if you keep checking in with her at certain points. We’ll walk you through those steps in our Hornsent Grandam guide. Looking for more Shadow of the Erdtree guides?
