"Abah's Watch" redirects here. For the style motif, see Abah's Watch Style.

Abah's Landing Guards patrol the streets of Abah's Landing. They are members of the Tamriel Guard. While most have the same behavior as other guards across Tamriel, some holding torches can detect you while sneaking and have their detection radius indicated by an illuminated circle on the ground.

They all use a unique Abah's Watch style of equipment. Like other guards, they can be pickpocketed for ON-icon-style material-Polished Shilling.pngPolished Shillings.

Dialogue[edit]

Abah's Landing Guard dialogue pulls from the Khajiit, Redguard, and Breton guard dialogue pools.

Female Redguard[edit]

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"I found you!"
"You cannot flee!"
"Stop at once!"
"Halt!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"Gold, or a beating. You choose."
"You're caught. Pay up."
"Don't think of running. It's time to pay."
"Bounty. Now."
"You were sloppy––and it's going to cost you."
"Going somewhere? You've got a fine to pay."
"You're caught. Now, the bounty."
"You break the law, you pay the fine. Simple."
"Save yourself some trouble and just pay your fine."
"Pay your bounty or I will hurt you."
"Quiet, you honorless cur! I want your bounty and I want it now."
"I respectfully request you shut your mouth and pay your fine."
"Pay your bounty. Now. What? Were you expecting words of comfort? From me?"
"Tell your excuses to someone who cares. I only want your bounty."
"Bounty. Pay me. Now."
"No words, no whimpers. Just gold for your bounty. Now, you coward!"
"You're caught. Now, the bounty."
"I hear and obey the law. Do you? Prove it by paying your bounty now."
"I realize that your kind can't help itself. So if you pay your fine I'll let you walk away."
"The journals of justice tell many tales about what befalls criminals who refuse to make payment."
"It's not your fault. It's in your nature to lie, cheat, and steal. That's why we collect bounties."
"In the name of the law, make restitution, infidel dog!"
"Rejoice, infidel dog! I am here to collect your bounty and clear your name."
"My thesis on crime argues that all criminals are idiots. Care to pay your bounty and prove me wrong?"
"I will cut the eyes from your head and toss them to the dogs if you decide not to pay your fine."
"Abide by the ruling of the law and pay your fine, outlaw."
"In my land, crimes are paid for in flesh and blood. Fortunately for you, we deal in gold here."
"You owe a bounty, scum! I'd prefer you resist, but I'm sure you want to pay."
"We all have our bad days, I understand. Nevertheless, the law is the law."
"There's no need for us to be enemies. I'm sure you had your reasons. But I must collect the bounty."
"You've seen all the scum missing their left hands? That was me. So pay your bounty, or I'll start calling you Lefty."
"This is not a request. Make restitution for your crimes. Now."
"Enough! Pay your bounty or pray to your gods, for if you refuse me you will surely join them today!"
"I can recommend a good book to get your life back in order. It's called, 'Pay Your Bounty, Criminal Scum.'"
"The criminal mind is incapable of learning from past mistakes. So I am here to remind you to pay up."
"Pay or die, criminal. You have no other options."
"The book of law sets clear guidelines on what's next. You pay your bounty or you face the axe."
"You face the same predicament as every other criminal. But it all goes away if you pay your bounty."
"They will sing of your crimes and the spectacular way you died, provided you do not pay me."
"I will accept your bounty now. Do you have the appropriate amount of gold upon you?"

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.
"Go."
"I knew you would cooperate."
"Your compliance avails you well."
"I predicted this result."
"I am satisfied with your penance."
"Much gratitude."
[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.
"Get out of my sight."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.
"Wrong answer!"
"You coward!"
"This is on your head!"
"Lawbreaker, stand down!"
"How dare you flee from the law!"
"I've predicted this result!"
"Criminals never cease to surprise me!"
"You dare turn your back on me!"
"I take such pleasure in destroying you!"
"This won't take long, scum."
"You should have complied!"

Male Redguard[edit]

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"I fear I must ruin your day!"
"You there! Stop!"
"Hold, criminal!"
"Stand still, criminal."

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"You're better than this, friend. Here––just pay your fine. You'll feel a lot better, trust me."
"Let's put this unfortunate business behind us, friend. Pay your bounty and you're free to go."
"Let me help you clear your conscience. Pay off your bounty and you're free to go."
"I'm sorry, friend, but I have to ask for payment on your bounty."
"You've done a lot of good in the world. Why not do a little more and pay the fine?"
"Crime is beneath you, friend. Pay the bounty so you can get back to proper heroics!"
"Times are tough, but crime is never the answer."
"Deep down you're a good person––I can tell. Here's your chance to prove it."
"The law requires remuneration for your crimes. Pay or else."
"Desist from your crimes and pay restitution."
"Pay the bounty or I'll beat you senseless. I might beat you senseless anyway."
"Do you know what I do to criminals who don't pay their bounty? You don't want to."
"Hand over the bounty. I'm not asking twice."
"The only good criminal's a dead criminal. If you don't pay your bounty, I get to ... rehabilitate you."
"Pay the fine or I'll have your skin for a cloak."
"Don't try to flee, criminal. You won't get anywhere."
"Your first mistake was committing a crime on my watch. You don't get a second."
"If it were up to me, we'd bury criminals like you, no questions. But instead we collect a bounty."
"Cease your wrongdoings, scoundrel. A bounty has been levied on your misbegotten head."
"Your crime spree is through. I'll have your bounty now."
"I'm sorry, but what you did was against the law, and now I need to collect a bounty."
"Neither of us wants a fight. So how about you pay the bounty for your crimes?"
"Ruptga demands justice––and he will have it."
"I've come for your bounty. Pay it or die."
"By my father's head, another infidel dog stands before me? Will this one pay its bounty?"
"Lawbreaker. You have a bounty to pay."
"No more games. Your bounty. Now."
"The smart criminals know to avoid the guards, but I don't suppose smart is one of your strong points."
"I'm not one of those hard-edged angry guards. I know it's hard out there. But the law's the law."
"You owe us a debt. We will have it in gold or blood. Choose."
"I am not a patient man. I will not abide delays."
"Too slow––and it will cost you."
"If I let you get away with this, there will be no order. Everyone will break the law. Understand?"
"When you consider it, the bounty is a reasonable price to pay for your crimes."
"Did you expect I wouldn't find out? No matter, just pay the bounty and everything is good."
"You have been caught in commission of illegal acts. Pay the bounty."
"Oh, look. A criminal genius. I'd be impressed, but you look so ... ordinary. Now pay your bounty."
"Blood and blades! I am so tired of confronting criminals! Pay your gold and go away."
"Abide me, wayfarer, and pay your bounty. It is the right thing to do."
"This will all go down a lot easier if neither of us gets emotional. Just pay the fine."
"Remit the bounty for your transgressions immediately."
"Rejoice, criminal, for I have come to clear your name! Make recompense for your bounty, please."
"So, infidel dog, did your crime profit you? I hope so, for now I must collect your bounty."
"I hope that's gold and not a weapon you're reaching for. Paying is much easier than the alternative."
"I refuse to work up a sweat for someone as pathetic as you. Just pay your bounty and go away."
"I will gladly accept your bounty. You do plan on paying your bounty, correct?"
"You will pay your bounty. You have no other option. Don't make me ask you again."
"Your crimes are many and many. Pay me now or it will be worse for you later."
"Please. Don't deem to waste my time with silly excuses. Just pay your bounty and flee."
"You are found in violation of the criminal statues of this fair land. You must pay a bounty."
"Know, O criminal, that your transgressions have been recorded. A simple payment will clear your name."
"Your luck has finally waned, lawbreaker. Pay your bounty or suffer mightily."
"You did it because everyone else is, correct? I do not accuse you of being original, just wrong."
"I always get the cream of the crop on my watch. I'll accept your bounty ... if you stand over there."
"I can forget I saw you do that, but you must first pay the bounty."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.
"Perfect. Stay out of trouble now."
"Smart."
"That's right."
"Huh. Off with you."
"Good. Now go."
"A wise choice."
"Right. Move along then."
"Satisfactory."
[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.
"I guess I can let you go with a warning. This time."
"Very well. Neither of us was here."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.
"There's no need for this!"
"Take a breath and reconsider this."
"That was poorly considered."
"You will be slain on sight!"
"You have a problem now!"
"So be it."
"Don't be unreasonable."
"Cease and desist!"
"Prepare to die."
"You're hardly worthy!"
"Another cur wants to fight!"
"You are too bold for your well-being!"
"Let this be on your head!"
"I find no joy in this."
"Your mistake is your undoing!"
"I warned you!"

Female Khajiit[edit]

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Stop right there!"
"Halt walker!"
"This one says halt!"
"This one orders you to stop!"
"Desist, criminal!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"How does this sound? Hand over your gold and this one crosses your name off her list."
"Don't bother running. I have ways of finding you. Best to pay the bounty now."
"Evil deeds always come back to haunt you. This bounty is the least of your worries."
"This one fears no lawbreaker. Justice always prevails. No, you must pay your bounty."
"The path to redemption is open to you. Simply pay the bounty."
"I mean you no harm. But if you refuse to pay the bounty for your crimes, this one must fight you."
"Try to run, clawless one. I dare you!"
"This does not need to escalate. Simply pay the bounty and you'll go free."
"You were bad, so now you must pay, yes?"
"I would look the other way, but I am bored and in need of amusement."
"This one does not mind a little mayhem every now and then, but you should never leave witnesses."
"You were caught with your hand in the moon-sugar jar again, weren't you?"
"This one has caught you. Pay your fine. Or don't. I could use the exercise."
"You lack the characteristics of the degenerate. Nevertheless, you are guilty. Pay the bounty."
"So tell me, walker. Do you feel that luck is on your side or will you pay your fine?"
"Justice is impersonal. You committed a crime. Now you must pay the bounty."
"This one loves the scent of crime almost as much as she likes collecting bounties."
"This one knows how you suffer, always on the run. Pay your bounty and this can all be over."
"Every action has a consequence. Your actions require payment in full."
"Always good to meet a colleague, even if we work on opposite sides of the law."
"By order of the law, pay your bounty!"
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am the guard who will be collecting your bounty, yes?"
"This one likes dealing with the lawless types. Pay your bounty and then we can discuss your punishment, yes?"
"We have business, you and I. Intimate business. And there's also that matter of your bounty ...."
"Though the criminal mind is rarely rational, I'm sure you can comprehend the value in paying promptly."
"Desist at once from your criminal acts! Pay the bounty or face the decisive claws of justice."
"The criminal is a volatile element in the alembic of justic. Now, to extract a bounty."
"I am the law in this place and you will pay the bounty for your crimes."
"This one would like to get to know you better. A lot better. But first, your bounty."
"Stop what you're doing and pay the fine."
"This one detests being a hagraven, but you do have a bounty hanging over your head. Will you pay?"
"Surrender and pay your fine, if you please, and this one will not beat you until you bleed."
"Decorum, attentiveness, and good manners––these cornerstones of civilizations demand you pay your bounty."
"This one is pleased to meet such a distinguished scoundrel. Will you pay your bounty now?"
"Pay the bounty or meet your end. Very painful ... much folding."
"I enjoy a good chase, but did you consider what happens next? Let's collect the bounty and find out, yes?"
"Lucky for you, this one likes to toy with her prey. After I collect your bounty, of course."
"This one sees how you look at her. But we are from different worlds. It would never work out. Pity."
"You've been caught committing crimes against society. You will pay the bounty."
"Good citizen, this one insists that you surrender and make restitution for your crimes."
"Do not attempt to flee. If you refuse to pay the bounty, I will use force."
"This one wonders, will you pay your bounty or will you die?"
"This one has a thing for criminals. That's why I got into this line of work. But I still need to collect your bounty."
"Guilty? Innocent? This one couldn't care less. I'm just here to collect your bounty."
"For many, the bounty is the warning they need that their life has gone awry. I hope it's the same for you."
"The criminal's dilemma is easily resolved. Pay the bounty and live to defy the law another day."
"I don't hold your malformed sense of morality against you, but I'm afraid you must pay a fine."
"The criminal mind rarely learns--justice always comes calling."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.
"I knew you'd come around."
"A predictable result."
"The law forgives you, my friend!"
"Sufficient."
"You are right in this one's laws."
"The law accepts your restitution, friend."
"This one always collects her bounties."
"I hope that was good for you, too."
[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.
"I'm in a generous mood. You can go."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.
"If that is your wish."
"It is unwise to flee!"
"So you really want to play hard to get?"
"This one won't warn you again, criminal!"
"I challenge you criminal!"
"Very well. Pain it is!"
"Guards! To me!"
"The criminal is a boundless enigma!"
"Don't you dare run from me!"
"I love it when they try to run!"
"This one hates rejection!"
"A puzzling tactical choice!"
"This one expected you to do that!"
"Don't say that this one didn't warn you!"

Male Khajiit[edit]

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Wait right there."
"Desist, criminal!"
"Stop at once!"
"This one says stop!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"Don't test this one. Pay the bounty."
"Halt, walker. It seems that your crimes have caught up with you. Time to pay the fine, yes?"
"You have a bounty to pay. This one takes it straight to the guard commander. Promise!"
"A bounty has been placed on your person in accordance with local law. This one is here to demand payment."
"By the dictate of the guard-commander, I have come to claim your bounty."
"This one hates to be a bother, but I noticed you owe a bounty?"
"You don't look violent. That's good, as this one prefers to deal with civilized scoundrels."
"Payment would be an acceptable alternative to fighting, yes?"
"Guilty? Who am I to judge? But I must insist you pay your bounty, if you would be so kind."
"My voice does not quaver. Well, perhaps a little. Still, this one must ask. Will you pay your bounty?"
"This one apologizes in advance, but the question must be asked. Will you pay your bounty?"
"This one has caught you? I mean, this one has caught you! Will you pay your bounty now?"
"This one smells fear. Oh, wait. That is me. Well, at least one of us has the proper attitude."
"I hope you reach for coin, and not a weapon. Paying the bounty is much easier."
"Your crime spree is over, walker. Pay the fine or face the consequences. There will be no second warning."
"The moons have gifted this one with sharp eyes and fast feet, yes? You are caught, you dungy fool."
"This one has decide he doesn't want you to pay your fine. Resist so that I can hurt you very badly."
"Pay your bounty or give this one a reason to hurt you. Perhaps this one needs no reason, yes?"
"You have escaped justice for long enough. Pay your bounty now and you may live to face judgement."
"This one thinks you ugly and stupid, like all muskarse criminals."
"Why do all the dungiest criminals come out on this one's watch? Make this quick and be on your way."
"This one will stand very close and breathe on you until you pay your bounty."
"Look here. Another fine upstanding citizen who's falsely accused, yes? Just pay the bounty."
"Please. Do not waste this one's time with silly excuses. Just pay your bounty and scurry on."
"Pay your bounty, corrupt one. Or refuse, if you prefer, so I can gut you like a fish."
"In the name of the law, this one demands your swift and peaceful compliance."
"This one is a guard, truly! Look at my fancy uniform! So hand over your bounty or ... uhm ... justice!"
"Dark moons and dull claws! This one is so tired of confronting criminals! Pay your gold and go away."
"Please don't make this one get his fur dirty! Not for one so pathetic as you. Just pay your bounty."
"There is no gold in my hand, outlaw. Why is that, I wonder. Must I show you the anger of the law?"
"Yet another criminal who dares to cross this one's path? Pay your bounty, you dungy coward."
"Do you know what happened to the last criminal I dealt with? Not even the healer could help him!"
"This one has come to collect your bounty walker. Resist at your own peril."
"Pay your bounty, you skeever-faced culprit, or I'll flay the skin from your bones!"
"You think you're so smart, yes? Not smart enough, it seems. Come now, make this easier for everyone."
"This one believes you should be punished, since you were stupid enough to get caught."
"If not for poor choices, this one thinks you would never make decisions. Pay up, yes?"
"Run like a frightened skeever or pay up like a five-clawed warrior. Your choice."
"Come, fragrant one. You know you'd much rather deal with me than with one of the other guards."
"You know you did it, I know you did it. Even the moons know you did it! So give me your bounty."
"It is better to claim bounties than pay them, yes? This one would know."
"This one hears the jingle of ill-gotten gains in your purse! I love dirty gold! And justice. Yes."
"You transgressions have been noted and a bounty has been assessed. Pay now and you are free to go."
"You owe a bounty. No running."
"Do not make this one do something rash. I have already hidden one body this week."
"As long as you retain your criminal standing, the law allows me to be as mean and unfair as I want."
"This one loves it when they refuse to pay the bounty. I keep my claws sharp for just such occasions!"
"This one knows who you are. All the guards do. Your only chance is to pay your bounty."
"Pay your bounty or I break your legs. Maybe an arm, if you cause me trouble."
"I'm not responsible for accidents that happen to those who won't pay their bounty."
"Your crimes are known, and the law dictates you liable for damages. This one is here to collect."
"It is this one's duty to demand payment in accordance with local and regional statutes."
"This one knows that crime tastes sugar-sweet. But only when you are not caught, yes?"
"This one loves justice. And gold. Lucky me, I will claim both!"
"Pay me your bounty, walker. This one will put it to good use by ... uhm ... giving it to the poor. Yes."
"Our laws demand a coin-settlement to clear your name. Render payment or things will go badly for you."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.
"You paid your bounty? Well done."
"Good decision. On your way now."
"Blegh. This one needs a bath."
"Leave now. Before I get angry."
"What? Your bounty has been paid, move along."
"Sleek. Now walk on."
"Move along or I'll charge you again."
"Easy, yes? You are free to go."
"Well, that worked out in everyone's favor."
"This one thanks you for your cooperation."
"There is wisdom in your choice."
[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.
"Blegh. Your excuse smells as bad as your boots. Just go away."
"Leave now before I get angry."
"Go away now, smelly one!"
"That was a silly excuse, but I'll let you go with a warning."
"This one is glad we've cleared it out. Move along, citizen."
"Get out of here before I decide to triple your bounty."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.
"If that is your wish."
"Not another step!"
"Where do you run, dung-eater?"
"You would like to fight? So be it?"
"I don't want to chase you!"
"Why wouldn't you surrender?"
"That was not a request!"
"This one hoped you'd refuse!"
"Was I not clear? Surrender!"
"I said halt, you accused!"
"I hoped you wouldn't listen to reason!"
"No surrender? Then let us dance!"
"Another rat to be rid of, then!"
"Smelly and stupid? So be it!"
"Violence? My second favorite activity!"
"Then I'm obliged to use force!"
"You will pay dearly for that!"
"This one hoped you'd refuse!"
"There's nowhere you can hide from me!"
"Don't say this one didn't warn you!"

Female Breton[edit]

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Stop right there!"
"Don't take another step!"
"Stop there, churl!"
"Halt! Halt! Halt I say!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"I can't believe I caught you! I scarcely thought it possible. Well, let's end the chase properly, eh?"
"It's great to meet you! I wish it were under better circumstances. Alas, I must ask for your bounty."
"I envy you. Such a freewheeling life you must lead! I'm doomed to just demand bounties, I suppose."
"My helm's off to you! It's rare that I catch such a talented criminal. A pity you must pay the fine."
"It's not everyday I catch such a daring rogue! It is an honor to claim your bounty, truly!"
"What a catch! I'll certainly have a story to tell tomorrow at muster! Now, about that bounty…."
"Look, I'm not a brave guard. I just want to do my job and get out of here. I hope you understand."
"You've shown us what a tremendous criminal you are––now show us what an upstanding citizen you can be!"
"I can't help but notice you're armed. Um…would you be willing to pay your bounty?"
"It's an honor to meet you! I'm hardly worthy to demand your bounty. But here I am."
"Halt, you vile offender! As much as this depresses me, I must uphold the letter of the law!"
"Nothing matters. We're all going to die. But pay your bounty and clear one black mark before the end."
"I'm sure this is all just a misunderstanding. Pay your bounty and allow me to clear your record."
"Seeing you like that, with a bounty on your head, saddens my heart. Pay your bounty. Make me smile."
"If you refuse to settle your accounts, then I'm afraid you will leave me no choice."
"The fine assessed for your crime is perfectly reasonable. Will you pay?"
"If you pay your bounty, we can avoid an unfortunate turn of events."
"I believe we can clear up this situation as soon as you pay the proper bounty."
"Sometimes I wonder, what's the point? You're just going to go out and break the law again."
"I can make all your legal troubles go away. For the usual bounty, of course."
"This is a simple clerical matter. Pay your bounty and we can remove this blemish from your record."
"Such sad business, collecting criminal bounties. Now pay up before I start weeping."
"I am here to assist you, citizen. As soon as I collect your bounty, this will all be over."
"Could I possibly convince you to do the right thing and pay your fine? Please?"
"How depressing. You have a bounty on your head. If you pay it and clear your name, I'll still be sad."
"There's no point in trying to escape. There are more guards after you than there are trees in the forest."
"Not much fun to walk around with a price tag on your head, is it? How about you pay up?"
"Let's play a little game. I catch you and collect your bounty. Then you. Catch. Me."
"You look like someone I want to get to know better. A lot better. But I need to collect your bounty first."
"What a sorry affair! You're a victim of circumstances, but I still need you to pay your fine."
"I'm sure you hate hearing this over and over, but it's my job. Will you pay your bounty?"
"Hello. Excuse me? Over here. I'm supposed to collect a bounty from you, I think."
"I'm just doing my job. It's nothing personal. But you're on my list and I have to collect your fine."
"I don't want any trouble. Really, I don't! Pay your bounty and we can both forget this ever happened."
"The law demands you pay your bounty. Me? I'm going to ask nicely and hope you agree."
"I'm not usually attracted to criminals, but for you I'd make an exception. After you pay your bounty, of course."
"If you pay your bounty like a good criminal, I may let you see my collection of antique riding crops."
"If you wanted to meet me, you could have asked. Now I have to make this official."
"What an exhilarating chase! Now give me your bounty and maybe I'll let you catch me."
"Let's finish this ugly business then get a drink. You're buying. No? You're right, let's keep it professional."
"I can respect someone who wants to get caught. And I do love doing the catching. Now pay up, dear."
"I know what it's like––always on the run, the law hot on your tail. Pay up and this can be over."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.
"Thank you! It was a pleasure."
"How sad. Your name has been cleared."
"It's just a matter of time. You will be back."
"I'm so glad that's done with."
"Maybe we could meet later. We could ... talk."
[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.
"Go on. I don't want any trouble."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.
"And this was going so well!"
"You're smarter than this!"
"Stop criminal! Please stop!
"It's probably my fault."
"I knew this would happen!"
"Resist and this will go harder for you!"
"I'm within my rights to use force!"
"Why does this always happen to me?"
"You people never learn, do you?"
"I thought we had a good thing going!"
"So you want to play rough, do you?"

Male Breton[edit]

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Hold criminal!"
"Stop right there!"
"You there!"
"For the love of Stendarr!"
"Stop miscreant!"
"Stand down at once!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"No need to get defensive! I don't want there to be blood, especially not mine."
"Stop, Criminal. Hand over that bounty, or ... or else!"
"I'm still new to this guard work, so please, go easy on me. Could you just do the right thing here?"
"Please. This doesn't have to get ugly. Just pay your bounty and we can both walk away."
"I don't like this any more than you do, but I–I have to do it. Can you just pay your bounty?"
"Um. You're a criminal, so I guess that means I have to stop you. Please just be nice about this."
"I-I don't want to inconvenience you, but ... I-I have to ask for your bounty."
"I'm not looking for a fight, but I–I have to ask you to pay your bounty."
"I'd love to just let you go, but that wouldn't be good for either of us. So pay your fine, all right?"
"Make restitution, say you're sorry, and this will all go away. I promise."
"You can go no further unless you settle the bounty for your crimes."
"If the hand offends us, I say cut it off! Or I accept gold in lieu of body parts."
"We don't tolerate lawbreakers here. Pay your bounty or be punished most painfully."
"You bounty will cover the next few rounds of drinks. We all appreciate your contribution."
"Your reign of evil ends here, malefactor! Pay your bounty or suffer the consequences!"
"No one can skirt the law forever, friend. Now why don't you pay up and we can call it a day?"
"There is nowhere you can run that I will not follow, rogue! Pay your bounty!"
"Let me state this plainly so that you clearly understand. Pay your bounty or there will be pain."
"You made a mistake. Things happen. Let me help you clear this up. Can you pay your fine?"
"Yes, your name's on my list. That's not the end of the world. I'll cross it off as soon as you pay me."
"Last time a criminal fled, I sent him to the dirt. I suggest you pay. Unless you like dirt."
"Let's not get excited. I don't want any trouble. Pay me your bounty and I'll be on my way."
"Your deplorable actions have a cost, and that cost is justice!"
"Punishing parasites like you is the reason I get up in the morning."
"If I were you I'd pay that bounty in a hurry. I'm not in a patient mood."
"The gaze of justice has fallen upon you, offender! Will you pay your bounty?"
"You've reached the crossroads of fate, my friend. Pay in gold or pay in blood."
"Just a minute. Your crimes are known here, and I would see your bounty collected."
"There's no talking yourself out of this one. You committed a crime and got caught."
"I hate people. When you commit a crime, I have to deal with people. See where this is going? Pay up."
"If it were up to me, I'd put you in a cell and throw away the key."
"Your kind makes me sick. Pay the bounty and then get where I can't see you."
"Your options are exhausted, outlaw! Your only chance is to fall on the mercy of the law and pay your fine."
"I don't have time for messing around. Pay the bounty."
"You want to break the law, you deal with me. Pay the bounty."
"You're stuck, criminal. Cornered. So pay the bounty and I'll let you move on."
"You're a good person. I can tell. Now prove it and pay your bounty."
"Illicit behavior shall not be tolerated! Pay your fine or face my fury!"
"Friend! Can I call you friend? You're in a bit of a pickle, but I can help you if you pay your fine."
"You've got a bounty to pay, but don't fret. Play your cards right and you'll be on your way before you know it."
"This is all just one big misunderstanding, am I right? Just pay the bounty and you're free to go."
"Look, we all make mistakes. Pay the fine and we can put this ugly business behind us."
"Don't give me a reason to chase you. Just pay your bounty and be on your way."
"Don't give me any trouble. If you pay your bounty, you'll walk free."
"I don't care why you did it. Pay your bounty and you're free to go."
"You need to pay your bounty. Don't make this harder than it has to be."
"Pay the bounty and you'll be on your way. Come, let's not make a scene."
"Hand over your bounty. If you reach for your weapons, I'll kill you where you stand."
"We know what you've done. Pay your bounty and we'll leave you be."
"We both know how this works. Try anything and I'll take the bounty out of your hide."
"Looks like you've got a bounty to pay off. But you can't put a price on a clean slate, am I right?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to ask for your payment. You seem nice, but business is business."
"I'm afraid I'm here to collect your bounty. If it helps, just think of this as a fresh start!"
"There's no need for violence. Simply pay the bounty and you're free to go. Easy, right?"
"I'm prepared to forget this whole thing if you pay your bounty. No harm done, right?"
"I hate to be a bother, but I'd appreciate it if you paid your bounty now."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.
"Gods, that was easier than I thought."
"You see. Look how easy it was."
"Good choice. Now get out of here."
"Don't you feel better now?"
[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.
"Mark my words, I will not let you go a second, um, time."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.
"Oh gods, I don't want to die!"
"Gall and pox! I hate this!
"Why did you go and do that?"
"The painful approach then!"
"Cease and desist!"
"You're forcing my hand!"
"You won't win this fight!"
"Escape is not an option!"
"You escape? The audacity!"
"Well, if you want to fight…"
"I'm going to make this hurt!"
"You're not going anywhere!"
"This could have been so easy!"
"Oh why did you have to do that?"
"That was your last mistake!"
"You shouldn't have done that!"
