I think your lang file needs a description.
Try adding this:

Code:
<CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">

    <Entry Name="Description">

        Pickles, pickles, everyday...

    </Entry>

</CATEGORY>

Also, have you made sure that your key is called "keyl1" (and not "key1") in the level editor?

Where is your lang file located on your computer?

Then I have no idea what's wrong. Does "Pickles, pickles, everyday..." show up as the story description?

It might be the quotes. Try replacing the description line with this:
<Entry Name="ItemDesc_keyl1">A Key Labelled "Living room Key"</Entry>
Giving you my langfile won't help. I'm still wondering if you've named your key "keyl1" in the level editor.
