King Nieldun gestured for the group to back down. "We are not afraid of Vaalgard or Lord Highmall. I have told you that we will not pay reparations for a crime we did not commit. Send Lord Highmall my regards and my regrets that he is not willing to work with us to find the actual culprit. Now, I believe it is time for you to leave. If you mistrust the countryside, an additional escort can be provided. Farewell."
