There came a scoff from Nykellen as he shook his head, watching Duch lighten his load and stretch. "Don't ask me, I'm not a horseback combatant." He admitted, he'd rather keep his horse out of danger rather than rush him into it. He only had the one after all and they weren't cheap. "I prefer two feet on the ground and two hands on my sword." He then looked back to Duch's horse then shrugged "But, if you prefer to charge like that, go for the half barding. I won't question it." He cut another slice of his apple and chewed on it before slicing another piece to give to his horse.

"So what's their name?" He asked, pointing to Duch's horse before looking to his own "This big brute is the General." He pointed with his thumb, shaking his head and leaning back on his saddle "He's a bastard but he's my bastard." The General huffed and continued to graze whilst Nykellen pulled out his longsword and started to sharpen it with a whetstone.

"Well, my girl here is name Jenifer. She is also quite the stubborn steed and have a mind of her own. Still, when I need her the most, she will be there for me."
Duch shrugged as he describes what she does on a daily basis, turning every now and then on his book to write things down and Jenifer moves here and there, trying to find a fit patch of grass that isn't being shared.
"You should see the things she would do. It's spectacular in a way. Not so spectacular compared to others amazing people I know I would say but sometimes it just feels like she knows better than I do in battle. I don't know,"

Finishing writing down on his book, Duch heaves a weak sigh.

 "Hmm... Half barding wouldn't sound so bad, but I don't know if I can still afford it while bring able to feed Jenifer and I" This would make things more difficult for him, Half barding would be a tremendous help but the price isn't something he would what to spend Willy nilly, guess he would need to take up a quick request soon. Duch puts the notebook away in the satchel and crosses his arms in frustration. 
"Maybe I should do some monster hunting huh? It would seem dangerous of Jenifer as well so I might need to do it all on foot... Hmmm. Not really my strong suite. Oh well, desperate times right?"

There came a hum from Nykellen as Duch thought about monster hunting. From what he garnered about Duch, he loved his horse. It was a part of his life. Taking a horse away from a calveryman would be like taking away a chef's tools to make bread. 

Nykellen shook his head "I wouldn't recommend it for you. Some monsters will come in packs and they'll get Jenifer if you're not careful." He motions to Jenifer with a thumb then rested his hands on his kettle helmet on his lap. "On top of this, I'd think you'd want someone watching your back. Monster hunting's not easy for a lone warrior." He recalled one partner of his two or three years ago that fell to a pack of feral Korvac dogs, the result was bloody and Nykellen had to put the poor bastard out of his misery with a blade to the heart.

He paused and placed his sword down on his lap then looked to Duch "That said, are you looking for a travelling companion?"

"Huh, so they are more dangerous than what adventurers say they are to be. Well, I sort of expected this." Nykellen was right, Jenifer is very important to him and he rather not have Jenifer get hurt and killed by a bunch of feral creatures. "Huh, this would be more troublesome than I thought." Nykellen was a mercenary just like him, Event though it seems that They both specialise in different skillsets they are both the same rugged figther who fights for coin and possibly other things. Duch puts on his helmet once again as Nykellen gave him more tips on monster hunting. 

"Getting help from a fellow mercenary? I'll greatly appreciate any help I can get. Besides, it must have been fate if we're going the same direction" Duch smiles through his helmet when Nykellen asked him if he would like a travelling companion, this bonding experience of two mercenaries was just a relatable conversation. They had a lot in common anyways, why not, he seems to know more about monster hunting as well, so he could use his help to earn just a little more money in the coming days. Putting on his armour again, seemingly getting ready to leave, Duch walked towards Nykellen and gave him a hand to shake. "Well then, Nykellen. Shall we make our leave? New Salvaina isn't far away from."
