-You really thought that you could dupe me ? Charles de Villeroi, lord of Local, such arrogance, such hubris ! Your Gehem will not protect you ! Guards, throw these men into my cells, they will be executed tomorrow if they have no other use !
They wanted to kill you after all, and insulted you before all your men, letting them go unscathed would be forgetting the respect that protects every nobleman. You needed to do an example. The adventurers exchanged looks between themselves and unsheathed their weapons. You heard the proletarian voice in your head saying "back gate unguarded, run there lads when I... Oh fuck". Two of your men moved there to protect the small gate when you heard the brutish voice "Do we have chances ? We can fight me thinks" and the cultured voice scolded him "Stop talking by telepathy you imbeciles, they can hear everything !" but Beau's voice answered "And how can we communicate ?

Kill them all ! They want to trick us !>Your offer is... worth considering. You shall be banished from my lands though, if I see you again in my fief I shall not be so merciful.>Your offer is... worth considering. I can let you work here, but after apologies for your misconduct.>Your mage's guild is powerful ? So it is rich, good ! It seems that they will pay good ransoms for you. Capture them, soldiers !>Other (write in)
