Usually when this remark is 'honorable' they will like being released. Also, when capturing a lord, he will make a certain statement such as 'grant me the honors of war' or 'I yield, call off your dogs'. The best way to find out who hates being released is by releasing every caught lord and keeping track. However as mentioned before, some take being released as dishonorable, resulting in a relationship penalty on your next meeting.

Others, however, will take it as an offense, stating that 'You would rather see me free and humiliated than in chains.'
