This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kvothe looks the chest over and says"bugger as he fails to pick the lock".He thinks "I do love a good challenge though". He pulls his light hammer and a piton out of his backpack and wrapping the hammer in a bit of material he pulls from the hammock, he approaches the chest to start tapping away at the hinges to knock the pins out. Before he starts, he suddenly puts the hammer down and smacks himself in the head with his palm and says to himself "you bloody idiot!"Muttering to himself "I am in the bartender's room perhaps he has a key on him." He walks back out into the main bar and goes over to the lower half of the bartender’s body – courtesy of Krav – and looks for a key on his belt that might fit the lock. If he has no luck there he searches his pockets for the key. If successful he wipes his hands on the bartender’s body – a clean bit – and turns to the party and says “there’s a locked chest in that room” pointing to the second room “and I reckon this is the key” holding it up “to it!” He finishes with “does anybody want to come for a look-see?”
You find the key in a pouch hidden inside his shirt, you also notice a ring on his finger and a money pouch on his belt (32 gold, diamond worth 50 gp, 97 sp)
Kvothe will attempt to take the ring off the bar tender's finger so he can have a closer look at it. He then turns to the party showing them the key and the ring, the gem and the coins. He then takes the key and goes back into the other room to see if it can open the chest.

Yellow walks to the stairs, hurries down them, and, rushing into the room, says in an urgent, but not too loud voice, "Two are headed this way. Get ready." She'll then quickly take in the scene before heading back upstairs.
Yellow rushes down the stairs as she sees the men talking across the way and enters the tavern, There are bodies all over the floor and a giant frog near the doors to the east. "Four are headed this way. Get ready" She says then runs up the stairs again.
Kvothe is just exiting the bartenders quarters when he hears Yellow's message. Kaslo and Taggart are still by the front door and Krav is 1/2 way to the stairs when Yellows warning takes place.
It only took a minute and a half for Yellow to run down and run back up and the men are still talking (for 3 more minutes).
Yellow draws her longsword, wields her shield, and stands at the top of the stairs, waiting for the approaching pirates. She will attack the first pirate to look in at her or the second pirate to pass by.
As Yellow makes her way back up the stairs, Krav follows her to be ready for an attack.
The four pirates continue on towards the tower and notice Solis standing at the Ballista.
"Are ye knew? What crew do you belong to?" One of the pirates calls out to Solis as the first two walk past the stairway Yellow and Krav is hiding in.
Solis looks att he dead bodies in the corner and mumbles something.
"Speak up yer sea dog." another pirate says as they get closer.
Each pirate is wearing leather armor and has a crossbow hanging from their backs and a scimitar and dagger on their belts. They don't notice the dead pirates as of yet.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
As the pirates walk past where Yellow is hiding she lashes out with her blade and stabs the pirate in the back. As her blade makes contact with the pirate, shimmering energy runs down her sword arm and surrounds the pirate in a kind of rolling heat haze. The pirate collapses on the ground dead.
Krav lashes out with his Greatsword recklessly attacking the two Pirates in the back of the group. Both pirates fall to the ground dead.
Pirate #3: Attack: 25 Damage: 10
Pirate #4: Attack: 23 Damage: 9
The last pirate turns and puts his hands up. "Please don't kill me" he says.
I originally had the three pirates attack you Yellow as you ran down the stairs but I'm not sure you want to run since you guys just killed three instantly. So you're still up there at the moment unless you still want to run down. But since I erased the rolls its showing manipulated dice rolls. Krav did originally hit both times and killed the two pirates.

Yellow waves her sword toward the stairs. "Down the stairs," she commands. She looks at Krav, "Will you escort this one down to join the others? Solis and I need to hide these bodies." After the last pirate and Krav head downstairs, Yellow solicits Solis's help in hiding all five bodies in the corner behind the stairs so they aren't visible from the walkway. As they are moving them, Yellow will search them with Solis's help.
After Yellow and Solis finish "hiding" the bodies, she suggests to Solis he return to the weapon to continue watching the gate, ships and walkway, and tells him she's going to go downstairs to see what's going on below.
As Yellow walks down the stairs, she is greeted by a Giant Toad who looks like he smiling at the Tabaxi. It croaks at Yellow a couple of times before hopping away.

So what’s the plan? Think we can keep drawing them to us for an ambush or do we need to be bold and leave the safety of our current hideout? I think we are going to have to make a bold decision and go for one of the boats

"I'll keep my mouth shut but when the captain hears about this or if Voltan finds out, you're all going to be sorry." the pirate says as he walks down the stairs. Upon seeing the carnage in the tavern his face turns a shade red from anger. "You don't know what you're messing with. If you leave now I won't tell anyone that you were here."
The slave musicians continue to play music in the corner while chained to the wall.
You spend the next fifteen minutes tying up all the pirates and moving the dead bodies into the back rooms out of the way from prying eyes.
Yellow descends the stairs as the others are finishing tying up the prisoners. She looks around, taking in the scene and imagining the event, but doesn't comment on the carnage. When she sees Weloh, however, she takes a step back. But waiting a second and noticing the creature doesn't appear to be dangerous, she just gives it a cock-eyed look. "It looks like you have everything tied up down here. Is the plan now to continue around to the prisoners? They may be helpful in taking the ships. Now that we've disposed of all of these pirates, there are weapons and probably enough undefiled armor to distribute."

Meanwhile
As Yellow and Solis are on top of the watchtower they notice movement from two of the rooms across the walkway.
Four men emerge from the rooms and have a brief conversation before they begin heading towards the watchtower.

Krav nods.
"Keep quiet and you won't be hurt," he mutters to the pirate as he escorts him downstairs, where he'll tie him with the others.
And that's all I have to say about that.
