What would happen if you stayed in a Domain of Dread and attempted to kill the resident Darklord as they resurrected?

This is a very gamey discussion, but I think it’s interesting to consider. The example I’m using here is the “endgame” scenario for Falkovnia, specifically the one from “the Horrors Within”. For those who have not read it, it says that if you defeat General Drakov, the Domain is rid of the zombie threat, and has its borders opened for “several moons”, during which time people rebuild or leave Falkovnia. After this time, General Drakov returns and retakes the domain.

But what exactly would happen if you stayed in Falkovnia and helped them rebuild? What would happen if, the moment she returns, you put her and her mercenary army down again? Would the domain become a somewhat normal realm until the party dies, or something? This could easily be applied to other domains, as well.

Is there any lore on this? Would the Dark Powers just smite the party and allow the Darklord to return?

Is it common knowledge that people live on Selune?

More specifically, what type of person would know that people live on Selune? I didn’t know this myself until I happened to look into it because of the Honor Among Thieves movie, but would something like this be common knowledge? Would my barbarian/bard noble know that his song about Selune shining brightly in the night sky is singing about an illusion? Would my fighter farmer from Soubar know that the moon he stares up at during the Chultan nights to remind him of home has people living on it? I think there’s some interesting roleplay potential here.
