You can pickpocket that same crown from that knocked Halfling druid tho.
But it never helped me with statues. O_o
They don't help you about the statues, but the crown allows you to open the back gate from Nettie's sanctum, so you can walk through the backgate and reach the treasure without exposing yourself to the gauntlet of statue traps. Either way, you can lockpick most chests, so getting the key from the dead guy by the 3 statues is unnecessary anyways.
