Hmm ok, I haven’t got that far yet. I believe it’d be something you should be able to do at any time though. Whenever you run into a caravan / peasants on the road, an encounter window pops up, asking you what you want to do : kill them, ransom them, ignore them, give them something or escort them. Of course, your choice would have a direct impact on your reputation and on your standings with the noble house they belong to.
