Jareth breathes a mental sigh of relief as Vance finally talks. Though it's amazing he managed to keep his mouth shut that long.
As the tent is opened and the group steps inside, Jareth looks at the dead Reygurian dispassionately. He looks at the others and shrugs, then turns back to the man in robes, eyes smoldering. "So you would charge us with treasonous acts based on one man's corpse and the fact that one of our group shares a geographic ancestry with him? That is one of the most absurd things I've ever heard, with all due respect, sir," the fiery-haired and fiery-eyed young man adds, though his tone is anything but respectful. Continuing, "And to do so just after we emerge victorious from a battle in which we assisted the human forces is insulting. Especially so to me, who has more reason than anyone here to hate the Treylor," Jareth finishes with a snarl and spits on the ground.
His gaze turns to Vance and Brend. "Milord Valorn, and Master Brend, I would ask a question of you two. Brend, you are a cleric of some power, I take it. I see the man's body is mostly undamaged... Would you be able to question this corpse tomorrow? I refer to the dead-speaking spell, but I'm not a priest. And there are a few truth-verifying spells you could use on us each tomorrow." Jareth turns back to Dellex. "Those should provide proof that your accusations are a waste of everyone's time," he says, crossing his arms over his chest, scowl resettling on his features.

Referencing Speak with Dead for talking with the corpse; Discern Lies, Detect Thoughts and Zone of Truth would be the truth-telling magics.
I figure with a Spellcraft of +13 and a Knowledge (Arcana) of +9, Jareth would know some about them. Take 10 gives 23 and 19, respectively, so some info.
And I'm gone for the weekend! See you Monday.
