Actually they did learn from their mistakes :P The reward is mostly spiritual, not material.
Personally I think you should have received nothing but players would have been confused. That actually makes the decision more difficult because it impacts you. Otherwise you could pretend you're good because you want more loot. Last time I checked greed wasn't on the list of good attributes. You should be choosing all evil-- it doesn't impact your standing among computer peoples; only what Bellegar thinks of you
