If I use enticement on my opponents gutobo on his turn before he targets a province with his ability, then target one of my provinces with his ability (to enable recon actions... for this example lets say i'm playing a scout deck), and then he defends and dies to an ability at that province, does he come back under my opponents control at the end of turn? or is he permanently dead? I know it wouldn't come back under MY control because I'm not his owner. But is this a legit way of killing a gutobo sans burn the village/impossible force etc?
Enticement + Gutobo

No. Since you took the action, the effect would try to return all Goblin Personalities YOU own to play.

That's correct. The effect would simply fail if no Goblins you OWN were destroyed there.
