The bloody lawn ornaments cursed our family and caused our parents' three first children to be born dead. Turn them away and tell them that until they bring us the head of that expedition's leader and that of his heir, they needn't bother to return.

[Lucus Casius]

Exactly, they caused our parents' first three children to be stillborn.  Without them, we wouldn't have been king!  The dwarves have been nothing but helpful to us.

Also, that was because our forebears messed with a holy site of theirs.

[Haspen]

You invite them to the throne room and in meanwhile ask the chamberlain where your mother is.

"She went to visit your sister Elsa and said that she would be staying at her manor for a few weeks, my liege, don't you remember?" Oh yeah!

The smelly, bearded creatures, clad in dark cloaks and robes enter the throne room and approach you.

Then they begin to stare at you, squinting their eyes, tilting their heads, sniffing the air at you, and whispering between each other in their language. After a while, their leader lifts his hand and silences his comrades.

"Greetings, King of Luathbas! We have heard that you be great warrior, but we also heard that those of your family have bad luck in personal combat. So here we came to craft you a cuirass that shall protect you from blows but also make the arrows and thrown objects miss you altogether. We will make it of steel, gold, and platinum and brass... if you be wanting it, then we welcome wealth, paid in front or later with certain increase." They then describe how much they want for their work, and the Advisor does some calculations.

"I think we can safely spend that much right now, my liege."

A) Agree for pay the dwarves now and lend them one of the dungeons to make it into a temporary workshop.
B) Attempt to negotiate a slightly lower price for their services.
C) Ask if you can postpone the payment for about twenty years or more?
D) Tell them that you've changed your mind and will not be buying their services.

To the feudal mentality, family, blood ties and dynastic matters are more important than any individual member.

Anyway, who's to know if they won't do it again? Show them that what was done cannot be easily forgiven, and that the only currency we'll accept for the blood of our kin is their own blood: the head of the one who placed the curse, and that of his heir!

[Swordstar]

TBF, they only cursed us cause we let their tomb be pillaged

[Maegil]

They killed our kin! For gold, they killed three of ours! They are enemies, and if we just let it go as if it had never happened we'll be spineless unfaithful scum!
