C - We're wise, so a compromise should be possible

Relocate hurtlings. Give them some compensation.

This might be a situation for a Charisma character rather than a Wisdom one, but it is worth trying.

[andrea]

Either way, we need the tax or the mines. Neither is not acceptable.

[Kashyyk]

Unless the Hurthlings can offer us vineyards for days, which is an option.

C
Surely a compromise can be arranged

[Haspen]

You attempt to negotiate with both sides of this dispute.

Neither Dwarves or Hurthlings want to find a way out of this. The Dwarven delegation gets upset.

"It's obvious that humans of Glennuaine do not wish to be good neighbours of Emeden. Well, keep yours houses, Hurthlings. King Eyrdri!" The dwarven leader turns to you. "We've prospected as we said we will, but our work is not charitable. We demand to be paid for our prospecting!"

A) "How about we write down a postponement contract? Say, our state pays in 5 years?"
B) "And I do not make deals on spoken words with no proof! You shall not be paid!"
C) "Fine then, we shall pay for the prospecting services. Then, you go back to Emeden!"

"Can we postpone the payments for five years? Our country still needs to get up from the troubles of the yesterday." The dwarves grumble.

"Agreed. Five years and no more." Your courtiers bring some paper scrolls and ink, and two identical copies of the contract are written - one for you, one for the Dwarves. The bearded folk leave with the paper.

"We always knee that our good King would keep our homs safe!" The Hurthlings clap and jump a little at the news.

A) "That's because Short Tax is back, little ones!"
B) "Yes, yes, I'm merciful and generous. Now scram!"

B
I can't do it. They're just too cute to disappoint.

[ZBridges]

Why should our other subjects have to pay tax while the hurthlings are exempt?
