The royal stables hold all of the horses of the noble people living in the castle. They are very well constructed, consisting of expert mason work and fixtures of some sort of heavy, forest-scented wood. Each horse has a large stall, lined with fresh hay replenished by stable hands daily. On the walls of stable, there are tools used to care for and groom the horses, hung on hooks. The stables are lit by lanterns hung throughout the stables.

village youth
I am a youth who lives in the village. I am adventurous and curious about everything. I get bored easily, so I will always try to slip away from mundane daily tasks to find something more interesting to do. I am smart for my age and a bit smug.
As best as I can, Your Highness. How are you today? Very good. Say how would you like to become a squire? A squire? That sounds fun! What does it involve, Sir? Doing whatever my knight needs and taking care of his horses and following him into battle Thank you so much! I'm really excited. What do I need to do to get started? Just learn all you can about the horses from the stable hands. The knight will otherwise get you what you need Thank you, Sir. How can I ever repay you? You can repay me when you make it to knighthood and follow me into battle Absolutely! May I ask why you chose me? No reason really. You look like you work hard Thank you. I will do everything I can to make you proud.  You're welcome. Good luck to you
