Halben runs over and uses his last healing potion on the King. 9
Once the king is awake, Halben says "See, I told you that they were going to betray you. There is a drow that was seen running around this castle? What do you know about her?"
The Hyena sticks his nose to the ground and walks off sniffing the ground along the way. He leaves the room.
Fawn begins making her way along the bodies looting them she finds the following.
76 Copper Pieces
1 Heavy Crossbows
3 Shields
4 Longswords
11 Crossbow Bolts
2 Chain Mails
3 Bloody sacks of severed elf heads.
Halben administers the potion and King Grol comes out of his unconsciousness and as a reflex grasps Halben in a threatening way around the neck. His eyes at first are full of fury but they quickly calm and the King pulls his meaty hand away as he looks around seeing the dead Hobgoblins simultaneous being looted by Fawn.
"I'm I'm... You... You saved me? Why?" says King Grol curiously.
King Grol stands up and rubs his neck where the slice had been feeling it has now healed..
"Appears you were right... I knew it was a matter of time. When a King get's old the young ones always get greedy... Just like I did."
King Grol leans against the wall, still weak from his near death experience and looks like his trying to clear his head.
"Drow? Oh, the messenger. Yes, that's Vyerith. We were actually working on a deal when you all let yourselves in... She's a messenger from the ol' Black Spider. She was supposed to come get the dwarf and the map but the fools thought I'd give it to them for free."
King Grol nods his head towards you.
"I'm going to sell her the dwarf's map but a deal is a deal. You get to keep the dwarf. I guess depending on how attached you are to him you could probably sell him for a profit to her if you wish."
Cypress continues on his way following his nose trotting along. It leads him back to King Grols throne room. There he looks up to sees King Grol’s Wolf Snarl laying dead on the ground with it’s tongue out of its mouth. Along side the wolf is the still unconscious body of Gundren as he can faintly see the dwarf breathing.
Standing above them both is a female drow staring back at the Hyena holding what appears to be a rolled up map.
Halben looks at the King and says "You know the Black Spider was the one that convinced Targor to betray you. He has deceived you. You can't let him get away with that. Why don't you join us and help us end this once and for all."
Halben (Advantage)Deception vs Grol Insight: 12 vs 19
King Grol believes every word.
"Hmph. Then the Drow was just stalling for time for Targor to return! No one betrays the King and lives!"
King Grol begins walking back toward his chamber.(Will take a few rounds to get there based on timespan of events)
Cypress lunges at the Drow aiming to bite and incapacitate and not to kill. As Cypress closes in he sees other bite marks along the Drow's arms, it appears Snarl did not go down without a fight. Cypress digs into this already wounded arm trying to bring the Drow down. Cypress being an elf knows what elf tastes like. Even a dark elf should have similar properties but this tastes... different.(Cypress deals 7 damage to the Drow)
Initiative:
Vyerith: 14
Cypress: 20
Vyerith smirks at Cypress and withdraws a dagger from behind her. She acts as if she is going to stab at Cypress but instead drives the dagger down at the unconscious Gundren. She stabs the Dwarf twice in the chest and leaves the blade in.
Attack: 14 Damage: 7
Attack: 26 Damage: 8
She looks at Cypress. "The map or the Dwarf, little dog."
Vyerith then runs out the door.(Cypress has an Attack of Opportunityif he wishes to use his reaction.)
Gundren Death Save: 13
Cypress, please let me know if you would like to continue to chase Vyerith. If so, I will create a map.

Cypress bites at the Drow as she flee's, he catches her cloak but not her skin.
Cypress as the Giant Hyena gives chase, must faster than the Drow. He then makes his attack(I know you said you made one but it doesn't look like it posted.)
Attack: 10 Damage: 11
Cypress's fangs dig deep into the Drow's thigh tearing into the muscle. The Drow turns on Cypress no longer looking with a smirk.
Attack: 9 Damage: 6
Attack: 12 Damage: 9
The drow punches Cypress directly in the snout twice dealing 15 points of damage! The Drow then makes a run for it once more!(Cypress may make an Attack of Opportunity, plus an attack for next turn!)
Gundren Death Save: 14 (2 Success)
----------------------------
Back at the entrance Halben walks with King Grol as Halben asks about the map.
"It looked like something near Phandalin. I don't know. Don't care. I don't worry about things outside my Kingdom. Getting that close to the Humans might lead them back here to my Castle."
At that moment, you hear the barking and gnashing from Cypress and can tell immediately where it's coming from!
Grol 14
Halben 12
Fawn 4
Cypress please post two attacks and I'll update with the new initiative order and map as we will have 3 more individuals joining the fray.
OOC: It appears a map will not be necessary due the Cypress's crit.
King Grol, Halben, and Fawn enter the room to see Cypress latch onto the ankle of a female drow causing her to slam her face forward into the stone knocking her unconscious. As she hits the ground her hand goes limp and the rolled up parchment rolls out in front of you.
King Grol growls and then laughs....
"Hahaha. Tried to double cross King Grol. Now I guess you can examine what's on the map for yourselves! Feel free to look but don't take it. That was not the deal."
Halben says, "Now, now King Grol, I think it is about time we start considering ourselves to be partners in all of this. At this point, we only have one goal, together! And that is to get revenge on that cursed drow that pitted your own men against you! So for now, let us share. Once we clear the drow and you get your kingdom back, we can part ways."

King Grol laughs heartily.
"You humans amuse me. Bugbears do not share. We take what is ours. However, our interest are aligned for the moment... You should grateful to receive such a gift from a King! Take a look at it if you wish, but remember. It is my map."
Meanwhile... Cypress runs in Hyena form back to Gundren. He see's the dwarf becoming pale as the blood flows. Cypress shifts into his Elf form and tears clothing from Gundren's vest. He removes the dagger and stuffs the shirt into the wound to stop the bleeding. The dwarf eventually stabilizes but remains Unconscious.
Halben looks at the King and says "Remember, I saved your life so I believe we can share." Halben then turns to Cypress and says "Well this map makes no sense. Let us tie this drow up and we can try to figure out what she knows about this map."
