Always did that and didn´t find anything here about consequences for that. Sion mentioned that we want strong Sx defences so that no monsters attack the city in the choas of the war. The Sx defenses could be fixed during war, by the order of the King some Crystals could be commandeered. The demonic disturbances, on the other hand, are not easy to explain. I would theorize that Alonon used his powers to seal the demons,

Of course the actual explaination is that Sierra is just one woman. It is almost impossible to a player to understand how tiring coding is. Think about it. ~90% of the players have completed both of quests these as they are not hard to accomplish. In order to add consequences for not doing these quests she would have:

a) To go back and add a few switches (not that hard)

b) To add additional branches (depending on whether you did 0, 1 or all quests), branches that could include extra battles, change some war variables, or do something else. (quite tiring) All that for a ~10% of the players.

You can understand that doing so, would not be worth of the trouble. Even gaming companies that make decision/micromanagement games might skip some minor or even major details.

So, yeah. The lack of consequences for not completing the demon rifts is a sin, but it can be forgiven, as we are talking about one person who overall pays attention to detail.
