Presumably if you do find the leader and kill him, these minions won't stick around. Then again, you don't know that for sure, and taking out devils certainly can't hurt your cause. Wherever the leader is, you have a feeling you are getting close (you just cleared out an area that obviously had some important ritual going on with a very powerful magical effect; and you are currently in what is likely to be Azarr Kul's bedroom). That means you are near to accomplishing your goal...but also that the minions you fight around here are likely to be tougher than the ones in the outer part of the Fane to the south (the blackspawn, bone devil, night hag, lesser priests, etc.). It also means the minions you face are likely to be the smartest, most cunning, and toughest remaining henchment Azarr Kul likely has, barring any he has at his side, of course.
