Followers on Quests

Perhaps a rules question, but I didn't spot a rule, and I'm more interested in the spirit of how to run this...

I'm planning to run a heroquest for several characters with followers. Some of them are animals (a dog, a horse) and some humans (brother, squire). It makes some sense to roll for Follower Reluctance for a squire to enter the Otherworld, but not for a dog. But does it even make sense for them to be going on the quest, if the main character didn't have followers? My sense is that probably the myth should prevail. Except that all the characters will be the main character (like on p.194), which sort of goes against the solitary nature of the myth.
