Dialogue[]
“ | A delegation from the <Wheel> clan appears at your gate<, begging for assistance>. <They are Chariot People, a once-widespread culture who, like your Rider ancestors, lived long ago in an ancient golden city. When Redalda converted you to Orlanth worship, the commonalities you had with them became ever less relevant.> <Their need <is/must be> great, since in King Brolarulf's day, your clan won a defining victory against the Wheel people.>

The reference to Brolarulf appears only if you chose to raid the Wheels back during the prologue.
Consequences[]
If you grant ceremonial aid, clan magic is taxed. You call a blessing of Elmal into their ritual receptacle. They thank you and say they would praise you to their gods. Mood might, or might now, go down.
If you politely decline, they may understand, expressing that every clan has to look after itself first before helping others.
