If the party brings the goblins to the Grove, but then sides with the Grove, then the story plays out similarly to if the party had defeated the goblin camp leaders. The only additional risk is that some of the tieflings die in the crossfire. Siding with the Grove results in Minthara being unavailable as a companion.

A somewhat different set of consequences are incurred should the avatar choose to leave the region without participating in the Grove fight, including:
*[[Karlach]] and [[Wyll]] stay in the party (or can still be recruited if the character has not yet started Act 2 in the Shadowlands)
*[[Karlach]]'s Infernal Engine cannot be repaired
* Halsin is not available as a companion, and will ''spontaneously die'' in his last known location, even if previously saved from the Goblins
* [[Gale]] will stay in the party.
* [[Lift the Shadow Curse]] is not able to be completed in Act Two
* Loss of many rare equipment items, as [[Dammon]] and [[Mattis]] are not alive to trade in Acts Two and Three
* Halsin, [[Arabella]], Dammon, and Zevlor are not available for [[Gather Your Allies]]
* [[Rolan]] will not be available for Gather Your Allies if he was convinced to stay and defend the Grove earlier
* All unfinished quests involving the Grove cannot be completed
* Despite disobeying Minthara's orders, she ''will'' still be available as a companion in Act 2
* A specific bit of dialogue happens with the being in the Astral Prism, but all other characters appear to ignore the decision
