[@Major Sharpe][@Genni] Im okay with this. It could be that they sent many different negotiators into the forest. Low ranking of course due to the high mortality rate. But one would have come back with a name kam'till, and that he was willing to negotiate terms. Kam'till would have also wanted to keep this pact alive and by forming a blood oath with the king insures that his clan would be obligated by honor to continue to help the king. The only thing that would break this pact is the obliteration of one of the two the blood lines.
