What if Tolkeen had packed their bags and ran?

Working on a story line.

What if Tolkeen had packed their bags and ran when the CS Army invaded.

I had imagined 5 or 10 percent would stay behind (ordinary humans).

I had imagined they would do a burned Earth number on anything they could not take with them but could be used against them or just did not want the CS to have.

I'd imagined the CS would be smug over their easy victory.

Best guess, they would move their people in.
Make it a forward operating base.
Search it for traps.
Kill the Tolkeen sympathizers or put them in a work camp.

Destroy momuments and magic.

When they are done, focus on Free Quebec.

With no help from Tolkeen, I'd imagine the CS war of Free Quebec would go on.
I'd imagine, half the CS troops against Tolkeen would be re-deployed against Free Quebec.
That or the Xiticix or New Lazlo.

The Cyber-Knights would stay unified.

Lord Duncan would smile and laugh for a couple of days then go, my greatest enemy just scored a huge victory. Use it to rally the peoples of the Federation of Magic.
Be a fear monger of CS invasion.

I'd imagine some Tolkeenites would rally towards him.

Lazlo would think they made the wise move but then what is their next move?
They would be flooded with people.

Necromancers would not have gotten the boost to their reputation.

The City of sleeping Dragons, Freehold, would not budge so easily.
Probably laugh at Tolkeen but would act sooner and take things more seriously if Tolkeen left.
No one else would do their fighting for them.
They would have no choice but to look to themselves.
They are dragons with enormus egos and power to boot.
When they get pushed out, it will be double the shame.

I'd imagine the CS would be harassed by Tolkeen insurgants.

I'd imagine the CS would be in a better position when the Minion War kicks off.

What do you think?
