I think a concession is right in this case. If someone wants out of a
fight, and everyone lets them go, then it is easy to negotiate. The
set-up of the conflict suggests that they are active in the quarrel:
that means that if someone (friend or foe) did not want the peaceful
player to leave, they could make it hard for them to do so --
demanding a higher concession value, and risking having the player stay.
