===Scribe's Hearth=== [[File:Andrew BosleySphinx At the Gates.png|350px|thumb|right|The Citadel's gates are flanked by a pair of tall green [[sphinx]]es, by Andrew Bosley Β© Fantasy Flight Games]] Just inside the gates of the Citadel lies the [[Scribe's Hearth]]. Here, the citizens of Oldtown come to hire scribes, usually acolytes, to write and read letters for them. The scribes wait in open stalls for their custom. Other stalls situated at the Scribe's Hearth include those where books are bought and sold. Others offer maps.{{Ref|AFFC|45}} The path divides at a statue of King [[Daeron I Targaryen]] atop a tall stone horse; the king's sword is pointed toward [[Dorne]].{{Ref|AFFC|45}} The Citadel also has a monument of King [[Jaehaerys I Targaryen]]; its plinth reads "He bound the land together, and made of [[Seven Kingdoms|seven kingdoms, one]]."{{Ref|FAB|The Long Reign - Jaehaerys and Alysanne - Policy, Progeny, and Pain}}
