I really don’t understand why this dude is being killed, other than to show the baddies are truly murderous. I mean, he was respectful, he brought in info. & he left when told. Informants are going to be hard to come by soon, if you kill everyone who wants to tell you anything….

Maybe this dragon didn’t want ‘his’ lord to know that there were still dragonborn resisting him.
If this is the case: he was using reverse psychology when he spoke of the carmine threat, expecting the information to be treated as over-exaggerated and/or false. Then, by the info being dismissed it becomes more like the big bad didn’t have the info. (but the cleanup isn’t perfect, and the info leak is dangerous for the remaining dragonborn)
Oh, I agree that that Irroimus may have personal reasons to happily deliver such a reward, but that doesn’t mean he would be able to do so just outside the door to his lord’s receiving chambers w/o everyone knowing.
If he truly was acting on his own, he would have given a few coins and asked the fellow to meet him elsewhere later for a further debriefing that might earn some more coin, and done the deed then.
Heck, it was Irri who made a big deal out of the info; Rekkoran was dismissing it out of hand until the dragonblood butted in.
No, Rekkoran was the instigator here, I think, figuratively asking, “Will no one rid me of this troublesome” fool.
Nice
Ahh, Karma can be such a bitch. What you did to Raemus just came home to roost.

@AlpineBob: Totally agreed. This is classic villain-ball.
