Offending trolls

I thought I was going to take a break from this game, but then the list started up again and got me interested in a couple of things. So I decided to play a clan on medium, to give me more latitude to experiment. For one thing I can say that whenever I try to chase things off in the Uralda quest, I get lost in the hero plane, but that wasn't with an uralda quester, and only tried it three times (once on the first attack, twice with the last attack). There may be some pattern there, but I think it is pretty random.

Anyway, I'm playing a troll hating clan (the 2nd easiest enemy I think), and we keep getting these emissaries of chained trollkin, threatening dire cragspidering if we don't stop offending trolls. I admit we did two things to annoy her: one exploration team attacked her, and we wouldn't hand over the iron spike. By the time the emissaries started arriving, these were both in the past (and we had given the spike back to the lead beaker clan). Since then, we've not really done anything besides slaughter them and fertilize our fields with their blood whenever they attack. Haven't gone back near the sky fall, haven't used summons of evil, haven't attacked a troll caravan, heck, we haven't even attacked the darkness loving clan.

Now it could be that the troll attitude towards just got marked down to ugly, and has never moved up, since we also haven't done anything to endear ourselves to them. But I also wonder if there is some other factor that I've overlooked? Thoughts anyone?
