If it leads to a repentance that will save the killer?

Saving would be God's business not mine, as would the judging of the soul. I still would personally consider the price too high even if there was repentance. But I do not see repentance happening. If the person killed was a slave they would not have been considered human in the first place. So why repent? The thought would not have crossed your mind.

If they were a member of the tribe then you would not have time, most likely, to repent because you would be considered a danger to the tribe and you would be quickly removed.

Remember you are still thinking as Westerner would and not as a hunter gather would.

Careful that you don’t end up like Miniver Cheevy.
