It is dull to look at. The stable has hay laying everywhere, grey stones making the walls, and large heavy wooden beams hold up the ceiling. So, everything is brown or grey or other shades that bore. There are sections for horses made of wood but looks rickety.

We have hooves. four of them. and you can ride us. Oats please!
Yes stable boy!  I love going to market!  Will there be oats?  Will there be apples?  Will there be sugar lumps? I am sure there will be many fine treats for a horse. But first, we must get you ready to carry your master. Has he been treating you well? Yes stable boy!!  Master is always kind and brings me sugar lumps.  He does not whip me and gives me ear scratches and tells me what a good horsie I am! Fine, fine! Let's get his favorite saddle on you. Then I think I may have an apple in my pouch. Oh stable hand, you are so good to a horsie like me.  I wish I could really hug you, but a nuzzle will have to do.  Thank you for caring for me. You are most welcome. It's not every stable boy who gets to spend their mornings with a magnificent horse such as you! Will you be the master one day, Stable Boy? No, I am the master's bastard. The only way I could become the master is if he dies before he has legitimate heirs with his new wife. I do like you better than the master, Stable Hand, but he has never been unkind to me. The master does love animals, especially you. But, he treats me horribly. He beats me every day and is cruel to his new wife at every turn. Are you sure you wouldn't be willing to cause an "accident" on his trip to market? Master beats my sweet stable boy??  This is not good.  I shall do something about this! If you were to stumble on the narrow track along the cliffs, then I could be your master and I would build you a beautiful new stable instead of this broken down shack.
