Let's name ourselves Kudzu, for poetry's sake.
And no, Brok's remains go in the bin, where they shall languish until they are taken to a landfill in New Mexico. There they shall properly mature for a while.
Then after, say, a year has passed, absorb these more palatable remains.
And then, hell, do whatever! But break the Orbs of Stalwart beforehand, just to be safe.
Whatever remains of keeper's consciousness concurs with this
Kudzu it shall be, and the cultists burn Brok's remains to ensure he doesn't have some kind of resurrection ability (he doesn't, but they are being paranoid).
Alas, you don't get to tell Kudzu exactly what to do, he is his own abomination and will walk the Earth doing as he sees fit with his mighty strength and moderate psionic power. He eats the ashes and gains much higher power, enough to rip entire lands asunder. Will he use this for good or evil? Only time will tell.
[6] The cultists find the remaining orbs and smash them, since they know that's what you would've wanted. Some of them get hurt by the orbs rolling around, but they manage to get medical treatment.
Final results: Kudzu has become a sort of new leader and symbol of hope for many cultists. While he does cause some trouble, such as knocking over a building or killing some people who used to be inquisitors for his various components. Mostly however, he simply wanders and uses his powers of necrokinesis, knowledge weaving, and Earth shaping to help those around him.
Keepers followers continue working to advance science and knowledge of humanity, leading to a new era of enlightenment in the ways of the eldritch. His Chosen manage to maintain his power through their bloodlines and eventually create their own school, "Keeper's school of knowledge and necromancy". Time is taken to repair the Great library and over time integrate the knowledge within into other places. The wealth of this information within brings even more progress to this age of learning.
Big Dog's followers become extremely successful in getting people's favor and pull people toward more research. Though the market for Big Dog merchandise is limited, many new products become available based on Big Dog's tissues and genes, and eventually a cloning project successfully makes a new strange singing plant. It finds its new home in "The Little shop of Horrors," as the store is named. His few inquisitors spend a lot of time badmouthing him, but mostly go ignored.
Brok, though his influence is gone from the world, lives on in memory. A successful movie franchise springs from tales of his rampage and his power. Coming this spring, it's "Brok the mighty and the land of broken limbs". His inquisitors occasionally meet up to talk about how much they love giving to charity and helping the less fortunate.
