Arith was flattered.

Arith: No, no, no the honor is mine to meet such a kind and noble jarl as yourself. Now what cause were you speaking of?

Arith did not want to directly tell any jarl what happened in Winterhold for it would ruin his reputation. He thought he could handle it between his college but the situation was getting dire.

Meanwhile...

Vielmo: No answer from Horik? Gather all thalmor under my command and tell them to set up camp around Helgen. Lay siege to it! We'll starve the jarl out and cut him down once he leaves!

Thalmor: At once Vielmo!
