Even if they discover your identity, how will they find you?  Assuming you provide for your basic needs off plane (which you can through Fabricate, Create Food & Water and any number of spells), there is no one living to know about you and thus rat you out.  The Genesis spell aids greatly to build an off-plane stronghold.</blockquote>
