  1. Talk to Halden the Stablemaster beside the Stonebrook paddock and agree to help. A rider must care for the yard before the road.

Notes

  • The materials are taken when Otto makes the fittings.
  • Lost the fittings? Otto makes new ones for free, as long as the old ones are not in your backpack or bank.
  • After the quest, Halden sells the Brown Horse Token. Activate it in your backpack, then summon and mount the horse in Owned Pets. Mounted horses travel 1.8 times as fast.
