Groom enters, still somewhat grubby from his travels, though that would be rectified soon. Shortly he finds the Baroness' creatures, catching a welcome whinney from some. He grins, happy with his job. Taking some brushes, he enters each stable in turn, bringing each beauty of his employers string out into the light for a thorough grooming, cleaning away the straw and dust, picking out their feet, making their coats shine. Upon finishing, a blanket is thrown over each, a rudimentary protection against the cold. The lady had four in all, her black stallion, whom he treated with caution, though the two had come to an 'arrangement' early on, a pair of grey geldings, used in cart, and another black mare, a gentle creature, to be used as a brood mare come spring.
Finished with the grooming, he picks through the stables themselves, cleaning them just as thoroughly as the horses, before doing the same to the feed and water troughs. Finally satisfied, he leaves each with a brimming water trough, and good feed.
