Spin it any way you'd like, it doesn't make sense to me that the guy declaring war on everyone trying to make peace would stop himself from murdering Big Lady V because he's afraid of repercussion. He drives the spear in after the impale, for crying out loud!
It's a shitty message to send and makes him look like a chump. "I'll kill you, just not right now, because I won't actually kill you right now, BUT I WILL NEXT TIME BE AFRAID RARGH."
Meta: Vid is a quest-giver, and SE won't/doesn't have the manpower to change all of the questing stuff should someone intentionally wait to do the sidestuff after the MSQ.
Alternatively, this is just classic shitty fantasy villain writing wherein he's braindead and poorly written.
