Are you certain? Here's the OSL code

[HaveFeud(otherClan)] response 1: "End the feud with the <otherClan> clan." {

	feudingClan = otherClan	# Remember it for R30
	noRaidClans += otherClan	# Don't let them raid in the interim
	text: "We took Einarth's words to heart, and decided it was 

time to assemble a tribe. First we would have to settle our feud with the <otherClan.plural>, so we arranged a parley with them next season."

        saga: "We took his words to heart, and decided it was time to assemble a tribe. First we would have to settle our feud with the <otherClan.plural>."

	fromR32 = 1
	skip44a = true		# Prevent problems during the one 
season delay before R30
	tribeMakingStarted = true
	eme = true		# Keep track of having done this, in 
case we do S106
	trigger scene_R30PeaceParley 1

}

The R30 scene begins with
otherClan = feudingClan # Set in previous scene saga: "We approached the <otherClan> clan with an offer of peace."
