That was my understanding too. It would be a new mount. I hope it's done like you say, as a quest rather than something painful.

I won't be able to get Rank 20 until I get my own plot of land, since my current FC does planting too often and I can't cross-breed because of it.
They really should have done a planter for the FC room or Inn room. It's freaking weak that they gate so much behind gardening and then made it an FC or personal house only thing.
