Is staying in place with no changes reasonable? No.Assumptions galore that may not play out. How burdened are the refugees? Variable. Do the PCs have a tracker? Maybe not. Do the PCs want to follow refugees rather than try to plunder more caves before the other humanoids undertake measures to avoid being the next group butchered? Could the refugees have left behind a rearguard to ambush the PCs who may follow? Might there be other wilderness encounters to complicate matters? And all of this much more fluid than a static set of caves easily picked off by a party allowed to engage in short nova-burst sorties without reaction from the DM.</blockquote>
