Yes, Halsin will attack you in your camp along with some animals the next time you rest if he's still alive after the siege if you sided with the goblins, even if he was still locked up by the goblins and you never even met him.
Huh! I’ll have to see if I still have a save and try that again. I know I ended the day and went back to camp because I saw Volo and spoke to Gale afterwards, but perhaps I didn’t actually rest. Thanks!
And bringing Sazza to Minthara will cause the siege to start as soon as you talk to Minthara. That's automatically going to lock you out of basically everything in the camp you don't take care of right then and there while you are there, as well as everything in the Druid grove you haven't yet resolved if you side with the goblins (and a fair bit even if you don't, like the Shadow druids plot).
Ah, I see I think. I confess that the one and only time I spoke with Minthara without saving Sazza I just killed her there and then, so didn’t realise there was possibly even more content than I’d found already. Thanks again, and I’ll try in a future run.
I guess it does make sense, though, that having Sazza with you means Minthara finds out the grove location and forces you into a decision there and then whether to kill her or let the raid preparation commence. And to my mind Sazza does give you a fair enough warning that they’ve been looking for the grove and she’s hoping to be able to share the location so her gang can attack.
