Lex Larson inspired a pretty good idea. Maybe someone has done this before. 
A hex has a dragon lair (or other powerful monster). If the dragon is killed, replace the old encounter table with a new one full of deadly monsters vying for the territory. Double the chances of an encounter in the area.

    You could also have carrion monsters turn up to pick at the corpse of the powerful monster!

    ... or the total die-off of a particular kind of tree, which relied on the heat of dragons breathing fire on local forests to disperse their seeds (think of jack pines)!

So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
