Yeah, I don’t know about anybody else, but given the attitude shown by the people running the temple, to me those sound like words that could be followed by ‘… protect the gate from the Afterlife side’ and the slaughter of the people being spoken to.

It was obvious. If Hilda wanted her alive she would have just stopped the fight, deprived the Lawful Evil hag of her powers or at worst revived Jen without a word. The fact she was asking proved she wanted Jen dead.

“I am altering the deal. Pray I don’t alter it further.”
I’m starting to really hope this temple ends up a crater.
I read “I’m altering the dead. Pray I don’t alter it further.”
Somehow, I think it would be quite appropriate…

Hit them from behind, grab their stuff and run? :p

If their helmets covered their faces, it would be a dead certainty.
Looks like the ‘ol switcheroo. Leave a fake and take the real “key” early.
