Actually I had something a little different happen to me. I took too long in getting the items back to the Marton Mother. I went through all three areas first. But unfotunately Phaere zapped in and complained about me taking too long and discovered who I truly was. So we battled I killed her. Then I had my mage cast Mass Invisibility found a good place to make a stand and made my run into the city. I did have to still get the eggs after all
You know those Paralytic bolts work wonders in a fight! I basically killed everyone except the golems and the people in the tavern. I was kinda hoping I would still be able to find the Matron Mother...but no luck there. Oh well.
