Steamed and Hammered Tavern
Located within the Autumn World, this tavern holds the rath leading to the Courtyard of the Ebon Watchtower within the private back room. It's becoming known as a good place to let your cares and worries go, and enjoy a fresh brew and a bite to eat. Just remember that mortals may also visit the main room, but only Kithain and Kinain are allowed into the back room.

Training Field
Spread out around the Ebon Watchtower is a large field where training areas have been set up to train in the use of various weapons; sword, archery, mounted. In a separate area, group formations can be taught and trained without worry that there is lack of room. It is said that future Pennons celebrations will be held for the County of Lion's Reach upon the grounds as well.
Steeds Crossing Stables
The Steeds Crossing Ranch began as the project of Countess Ionae, and was taken over by Baroness Liazaelyn when the Count and Countess left Prospect. Previously, the finest mounts produced were given to those members of the Ducal Army at Ebon Watchtower. However, even with the chimerical attendants, the stables have long since fallen into disarray, and the breeding stock has run wild for many months. As the current caretaker of the adjoining freehold, Ethan has been working to bring the chimera under control. It is put forth that going into the stables unaccompanied is strongly discouraged, the Watchtower will not be responsible for the health and well-being of trespassers.
With a nod of respect to those who worked it previously, the main building of the stables has been left unchanged. There are four wings to the stables, each marked with a specific stone sign. These are Feathers and Hooves (primarily equine and avian), Fangs and Fur (bears and wolves, oh my), Scales (reptiles abound), and Paws and Claws (feline and weasel). Within each, various Chimera have been caught to make up the breeding stock. Most are shades of white, the offspring often of different colors depending on the food fed to the mother while in gestation. Some truly amazing color variations have been seen.
Feathers and Hooves wing consists of primarily equine and avian chimera, and in some cases, combinations of the two.
Fangs and Fur wing consists of primarily bears, wolves and other canine types of chimera.
Paws and Claws wing consists of primarily feline and weasel types of chimera.
Scales deals with just that; the reptilian type of chimera, including dragons.
