There weren't all that many customers inside of the smithy to begin with.
When Selia filled the whole place with her killing intent, however, not one of them dared to remain and argue just how long they'd waited for the opportunity.
First, she was the town's Saintess. Second, she clearly knew Greg, to whom the smithy belonged. Third, they all saw the clash between the smith's owner and one of his suppliers. Fourth, Greg clearly expected them and had some plans regarding their company.
And finally and lastly, fifth, if Greg had any intention to stop Saintess from chasing them away, he would be sure to voice his opinion.
In the end, however, none of the leaving customers appeared to hold any sort of grudge over the lost chance to buy, repair, or order what they needed.
Greg was grumpy, sure, but he was fair. And if he chased them away now, all they had to do was leave and then wait for his business with the Saintess to be completed before they would be surely invited back.
