Well my idea was that they would wish to cool the thing down as their first objective. Being fathers of young children they would know that if the children were given a chance to re-tell the events facing each other while the emnities were still hot it would only end up in more fighting; screaming, yelling and accusing... and that would be against the primary target of hushing the incident down as well as possible. (Which of course is a stupid objective as the whole thing would be revealed sooner than later - well as soon as Wynflaed or Athanar would see their daughter and the shape she is in: but that's daddies reacting with their strong hearts but short sights

)
And they had already heard Javan saying his father would not have approved of what he had done, so they had some preconceptions already of what happened eg. that Javan had acted badly... once again. (poor Javan, his reputation is hard to carry indeed...) So they were actually also protecting Javan by sending him away.

With that I wholly agree... and I'm not sure how Coenred will react to that interruption either...
Meddle with it, anyone!
