Nope, not seeing your point here. If Cecil didn't become a paladin he'd have been attacked by Palom & Porom who would of course reveal that they were sent to spy on him. Then he would have to return to town and explain why he failed, which would of course lead to his expulsion, which would probably involve him and Tellah going somewhere else and doing something else which would lead back to Baron in a more roundabout way. I'm not seeing why the story wouldn't progress, and in fact I think it might make the story more interesting to show a flawed hero rather than a cookie cutter goodie two shoes like Cecil.
