23. Knights' Quarters/Garrison Stable

The ground floor of this area is the Garrison Stable. Horses belonging to Baronet Halden and the Knights of the Garrison are stabled here. The horses are cared for by the Knights' squires, who bunk in the stable with the horses. Along the south wall of the stable is a stairway leading to the second level, which is the Knights' Quarters. The Knights' Quarters consist of a small entryway at the south end, and a long central hallway down the long axis of the building. From this hallway, five doors open to the west and two to the east. The five small rooms on the west side belong to the five Junior Knights. The two large rooms on the east side belong to Sir Galadin and Sir Kellin. The knights are all from wealthy Slateholm families. Sir Galadin and Sir Kellin swore fealty to Baron Morgan when they were young men. When the Baron left Morgansfort, he assigned the two knights to assist his son, a task they gladly accepted. Their presence at the fort is a major reason for the Baronet's success. It was the chance to serve under the command of these two knights that attracted the junior Knights to Morgansfort. The junior Knights are all sworn directly to Baronet Halden. 14
