Probably left open for GMs to use as suits their game. Duke Raus
isn't the only exile from that particular incident and there'll
be plenty of other incidents which cause people to be exiled.

Depends on the individuals concerned, some will flee back to the
Empire, some will stay and make a deal with Agrath while others
will be forceably removed. I don't think Argrath is going to bother
purging Lunars from the surrounding countryside, just remove the
leadership in the city itself.

Remember the most important thing is that the lands produce
crops to feed the city. Who actually runs them isn't so
important as long as they aren't actively opposing Argrath.
Of course is someone displaced by the Lunars turns up they
may insist on evicting the grantee. However I don't know of 
anything which states that the land was previously occupied
and even if it was the previous owners could be dead or
insufficently influential to be taken notice of.
