This large central area of the stable is bustling with activity. Fresh pine struts rise from the cobblestone floors to support rafters that create a high peaked ceiling overhead, with large windows lining the walls above that allow fresh air and light into the busy space. Travelling through the entire structure from east to west is a wide alley large enough to accommodate equine traffic. A large chalkboard that designates stall assignments and staffing duties has been posted here.

Welcome to the Grand Stable!
In the western stalls, you will find male mounts.
In the eastern stalls, you will find female mounts.
So as not to spook the animals, we've created replicas of each type.
Please LOOK at each mount before buying the reins that are for sale on them.

Numerous bales of freshly cut golden hay fill a large stall on the northern side of the spacious alley. Red-handled pitchforks stand upright, spearing the hay bales, while a small green cart stands close by. Stray stalks of hay weave themselves between the cracks of the dark grey cobblestones that make up the floor. On the southern side of the wide alley are two stalls, their lower half-doors latched with blued-steel hardware.
