Hey there,
My group just descended into the first temples beneath the mine, the Hextorian Temple. They managed to prevent most of the base knowing about their advance, until the very end.

When confronted in the main battling arena, they fled to the back rooms. They were cornered, and, fearing major death, they fled out out and back up the elevator. This is where we left off.

However! To first get into the mine's secret area, they sucker-punched and stripped the two guards guarding the entrance. So, the guards (plus a few friends) will likely be waiting for them as they ascend back into the mine proper.

I'm concerned with a number of things:

The PC's broke into a legitimate mine on the pretense that there was a cult doing 'something' down there.

They then snuck into the Hextorian temple, and proceded to wallop on them, for no reason.

The Hextorites did nothing to provoke the attack, and were simply defending their temple.

As a LE bunch, I fully anticipate the Hextorites to move for some kind of persecution on tresspassing and murder charges.

However, the local militia and garrison houses the temple to Hieroneous of this town (LG! ack). Nevermind the bitter rivalry between the two god brothers, how would this play out? Would the LG militia have to persecute the PCs for tresspassing unlawfully on the LE territory?

I can see this developing as far as creating an opening for a Hextorian takeover of the town...

What are your suggestions for how this would play out? What about other scenarios? What will happen?!



-----
Additionally, what will happen to the structure of the temple itself? In relation to the other two temples?

This is what is left of the garrison: 4 tiefling guards,4 zombies (soon to be more I assume!), theldrick the cleric, and the other two cleric-lovers.

They used a lot of their consumables in the first battle (potions, scrolls, etc); Which of these would I restock with them?

Will they ask for help from the other two temples? They will surely inform the other two cults, so they will all be at the ready, with extra defenses. Would they trap the area? What kind of traps would be reasonable?


Thanks for any and all help!
