If you are the victor in a siege, you can rrequest a ransom jus tlike an active clan.
yes, once you met a house it doesn't matter where the lord(s) are, you can contact them directly through diplo for whatever reason. But you should not be contacting people BEFORE you met them / their house.
Yeah, if attackers defteat the defending lords, and there is a kidnapped Lord then they would be freed. Unless the House of course executes the Lord before the victory occurs.

attacking an inactive clans castle; it gets defended by icepack or Lindax or both; if I loose you roll a d10 for my penalty
but if I win I might get the castle ; should I get any gold for the defeated lord like I could if it were an active clans castle and I chose to ransom you(or Lindax) .... or will execution of the defeated defender be the only option (i.e. assuming I have an axe to grind through the defeated defender neck)?
I think your post about the attacker losing was about the 6th page
question 2: you discussed around the same time that we could only do diplomacy/exchange info with someone we met, but phased it in a way that made me think we could resume diplomacy well after we parted ways ,
e.g I meet Brave Sir Robin on turn 3 and he bravely runs away.... on turn 10 I dont really know where he is put could I offer to sell him some tasty minstrels through diplomatic posts ? (perhaps only if I know the true location of his castle?)

3 lords siege a castle with 3 lords in it
attackers A and C win ; B, loses and is a prisioner for now in the castle .
attacker A now defeats defender B ; shouldn't that free defender B ?
I'll quote your earlier post on the abc scenario which didn't quite address what happens if B is merely kept prisioner till the siege is over
quote
"Attacker A defeats Defender A
Attacker B is defeated by Defender B
Attacker C defeats Defender C
So does that then mean that Attacker A or C must defeat Defender B?
Correct, so defender B would still be defending the Castle in this scenario and would get to decide what to do w attacked B (execute, ransom, release).
In theory defender B could try to ransom attacker B for gold or cease fire, but if executed then you are correct attacker a or c must finish the job (or at that point, could stop the siege and leave)"
make sure you get turns in etc
