About that feature idea regarding more travellers on the world map.
You could make those travellers be for example normal citizens from towns travelling around, hunting, just wandering. There could even be large parties led by an adventurer, just like the player's party. There could also be small military patrols (soldiers from a town or castle just scouting for enemy close to the castle/town).
I don't know if this can be implemented, but you could also have border guards. They would be sort of scout parties that would search the kingdom's territories for enemies. As soon as they would spot an enemy, a few soldiers from the party would detach and immediately go to the closest lord/king (the king/lord of their faction, could also go to towns or castles) and then stand at them for few seconds, after that the lord/king would follow the small detachment to the location where the border guards spotted the enemies. And there they would search for the border guard party or the enemies.
If a player would be a vassal of a kingdom and would be most closest person to the border guard party when they spot the enemy, then the detachment of border guards would approach the player and request that the player follows them to help fight off an enemy in their territories. That would be simply awesome. And if for example the group the border guards would have spotted would be large, then they would try to also get other vassal parties to help them. This would also work that way if the player is at negative relations with a kingdom and he would be spotted by border guards, then they would immediately inform the vassals about it just like with other enemies (except bandits, outlaws, hostile caravans, hostile village farmers and enemy border guards).
Also the detachment would have huge speed so it would be hard to catch it, but the vassal would be called in fast enough.
P.S Lol look how from traveller idea I went to border guard idea, eh.
