Some more answers to the Q&A.
Thank you so much for the questions!!! XD
A little note on the horses: a 'courser' was a type of warhorse. Cheaper and less impressive than a 'destrier' but much more hardy. They were the preferred type of horse for hard combat.
A 'palfrey' was an expensive type of riding horse. It was as expensive as a destrier. It was swift and very comfortable, good for long journeys.
Medieval horses were slightly smaller than horses today. A medieval horse would measure around 15 hand at the shoulder (which is a bit over 150 cm/5 feet)
