A week has gone by and the arbitration negotiations are at a standstill as the Browig camp will not accept the terms from Viscount Knappstein claiming it is too much money. As the talk continue the Browig brothers have added the condition that Wend marry Karla as part of any agreement. They hope with the marriage that the concessions will be lowered and they will be able to join in on the development of the Savage Lands. Amadeus does not agree with the marriage and tells Wend it is the only hand they have to play. Wend and Katharina start discussing how much is owed to them and Wend doesn't think the Browig's can pay or give him something else as compensation, but Katharina remembers that the Browig's own the Herthania Valley and they can take that as compensation.

The next day Wend offers to take the Valley as part of his compensation and the Browig camp accepts his proposal. The remaining compensation will be 350 million cents and will be paid out over a 10 year period. With this Wend prepares to leave the negotiations, but before he leaves Amadeus asks Wend once he clear the domain to let him participate in it development which Wend agrees to.
