I can only levitate vertically, I can’t move on the horizontal so I have no way to propel myself across and control it. We could try to climb up onto that walkway that goes across, I could levitate to the top with a rope to tie off to help the rest of you climb?
When he see's the party has moved back to where they started he says "Psst"to Yellow to attract her attention and points to the party. He then takes his rope from his pack and uncoiling it, he ties one end to the crenelations and quietly drops the remainder to the ground below making sure it does not pass over any of the windows in the building below.

As the rope comes down, Taggart and company make their way to the watchtower and now the party is together up top. Watching around the cavern everything seems to be in order and no one has noticed that the two pirates are now dead and the group has control of the tower.
Kvothe turns to the party that has just climbed and says somewhat sarcastically “right now that you lot have returned from your little wander, we’ve got two options – clear out this room beneath us or go across the walkway and try and free the prisoners.”He continues “if we gunna clear out the room some blokes need to climb back down and go in through the big door down below and others go through that door over there” he says pointing to the door on this level “cos I reckon it has to go downstairs.” He finishes with “me I don’t like leaving an army of cranky pirates behind us that can trap us on the other side of the walkway but what’s it to be.”

I agree with Kvothe, we should not leave those below us to Flank in the future. Our brave Krav has proven himself so much in the past, he would be an excellent distraction in the front door if he is so willing.

Kvothe turns to the party and says “Alright then lads and ladies, this is how it’s going to go down, Yellow will stay up here with Solis and look like guards, Krav, Kaslo and Taggert, you go back down the rope and get ready to bust open the main door once you hear a ruckus start in the room downstairs or in 5 minutes whichever is first."He goes onto say “Me and Scaly here”he says looking at Weloh “will go down the stairs over there” he says pointing to the door on this level “cos hopefully they’re joined and create said ruckus, which hopefully people will just think is a bar fight.” He shrugs his shoulders “but if they’re not joined we’re screwed.” He looks around at the party and says “are we good then?” While Krav, Kaslo and Taggart start climbing back down the rope, Kvothe and Weloh head over the door where Kvothe checks if its locked. If it is he unlocks it, If not he heads downstairs stealthily.

Weloh looks at Kvothe, "Yes, plan good! RedWing and I down back stairs." As Kvothe and Weloh head to the stairs, he places a hand on kvothe's shoulder, "RedWing talk good. Fight good too, we see soon." With that, reddish skin of the tiefling grow thick and dry, starting to crack in places. Barkskin

Taggart, Krav, and Kaslo make it to the door and are now waiting to hear the ruckus start before charging in.
Yellow and Solis are at the top of the Watchtower pretending they are the guards and keeping watchful eyes on the other two ships and the cavern complex.
I'm sending them a private post and when they respond I will put in here what you guys hear etc...
You hear a commotion coming from inside, screams of pain mixed in with laughter and music. As you open the door you notice:
The stairs open right into what looks like a bar. You peek around the corner and see a pirate passed out on the floor ten feet away from you. The all are wearing leather armor and have daggers strapped to their boots and scimitars hanging from their belts. You see various forms of jewelry on each pirate, Some have earrings, others have rings or necklaces. It seems they have been doing good for themselves as of late.
Looking throughout the room out of the 14 normal pirates, 8 of them are passed out drunk. (1,3,4,6,9,10,12,13) You notice a big man behind the bar, he's wearing leather armor and has a greenish colored ring on his finger and a dagger through his sash. He has a crossbow bolt sticking out of his shoulder (27 damage) while the pirate next to him (11) looks in the direction of the Kvothe.
Another pirate in the far corner (T1) is playing dice with two other pirates but he has a mace on the table next to him with a large pile of coins while the others have scimitars. The other two (5 and 14) do not look happy at all. A beam of pale moonlight is shining down on these guys and they are screaming in pain. (9 Damage each)
There is a pirate sitting by himself (2) because his mates are all passed out at the table around him (1,3,4). He looks completely wasted and it seems he may fall over at any moment.
The two pirates (7,8) closest to you are drawing pictures on the passed out pirate at their table and laughing really hard as the drink their ales.
There are two pirates passed out (9,10) at a table with a large pile of gold coins in front of them. It seemed they were playing cards because there are playing cards on the table and floor.
You hear music coming from somewhere behind the wall. (The music is coming from the top right corner of the bar but you can't see over there.)
You guys all get a freebie then I'll roll initiative.

"hmph, if they had waited then we could have all been together - like we planned" Kvothe says to Yellow.

Yellow turns her back on the tiefling, mumbling under her breath.
Kvothe watches Yellow turn away and thinks to himself "women and cats, a bloke's got no chance of knowing what either is really thinking!"

Krav raises his eyebrows.
"Humph. Thanks, I suppose. I'll go wherever I'm needed."
And that's all I have to say about that.
Kvothe turns to the party and says “Alright then lads and ladies, this is how it’s going to go down, Yellow will stay up here with Solis and look like guards, Krav, Kaslo and Taggert, you go back down the rope and get ready to bust open the main door once you hear a ruckus start in the room downstairs or in 5 minutes whichever is first."

Yellow doesn't say anything, but her general attitude is she thinks Kvothe's plan sounds good.
Weloh looks at Kvothe, "Yes, plan good! RedWing and I down back stairs." As Kvothe and Weloh head to the stairs, he places a hand on kvothe's shoulder, "RedWing talk good. Fight good too, we see soon." With that, reddish skin of the tiefling grow thick and dry, starting to crack in places. Barkskin

Krav nods. He looks around for his two spears before leading the way (?) down the rope, assuming no dissent.
And that's all I have to say about that.
Kaslo doesn't say anything, but appears rather upset. He follows after Krav and Taggart.
Taggart, Krav, and Kaslo make it to the door and are now waiting to hear the ruckus start before charging in.
Yellow and Solis are at the top of the Watchtower pretending they are the guards and keeping watchful eyes on the other two ships and the cavern complex.

Once the 3 of them are down and in position, Kaslo quietly mumbles an incantation of Lethandar. blessing each of them.
Bless on Taggart, Krav, Kaslo.
