The hearth fire will remain, and that person will be able to log in there, but they will not be able to move around without enabling criminal acts.

You could destroy it, but that would leave a summonable scent.

The scent can be used to murder you while you are offline.

However, most people will not bother with random scents on the claims of people they don't know.

Suggested action: build something tall or plant a tree in front of the hearth fire. This will prevent people from seeing the scent. then demolish the hearth fire while standing behind the tree (look up pictures that have scents in them to see their shape).
