As Del strikes the weasel he watches it go limp as it is knocked out cold. He also notices looking at the way the weasels were arranged that they were clearly hunting, he can also assume that they targeted Nimb as the smallest of the group.
As Gom climbs further, roughly 15 ft, into the hole he finds it pretty difficult as a stocky built orc, he looks up to see two eyes just staring at him in the darkness hissing.
OOC:
Del a little extra for the Nat 20.

As Gom retreats to the surface and through leaving just enough room for the weasel to follow. Mizzula reaches down towards the creature hoping to shock it he grabs it by the scruff holding onto it as electricity flows through its body. The creature instinctively rears back its head biting Mizzula in the hand.
As the first weasel trying to wrestle Nimb to the ground falls uncouncious another one seeming moves over the body biting at the bard.

Sybella if you want to post your action I’ll throw it into the narrative. :)
To help move things a little faster everyone just post your actions for the round and I'll edit the narrative as needed - letting you know if something needs to change, I feel this will move the game along at a better pace without having to wait on several posts over X amount of days before your turn.
[OOC] Del's RND2 action when it gets to his turn. Casting animal friendship on one of the giant weasels that does not look like it is currently being attacked. Wisdom spell save DC13 or the giant weasel becomes charmed.
Stunned by the ferocity of these creatures, yet seemingly as concerned for their well-being as his own companions, Del glances about darkly as both groups tear into each other. Staring with a particularly pained look at Mizzula's sizzling attack against one giant weasel and the two vicious bites against him and Nimb, the conflicted genasi drops his scimitar and instead tosses a piece of dried meat from his rations towards one of the creatures that isn't being attacked by one of his allies as the druid focuses all of his senses towards it. Del then drops to claw at the dirt on all fours while *hissing* back at the giant weasel through his fundamental connection to the natural world, desperately trying to impart to the animal that he and his companions aren't prey but would be its hunt mates if possible and will leave the creatures' in peace if not.

Gom will, on his turn, try to disrupt any pending weasel attack against his team. He will attempt to crash into the creature with his shield to knock it off balance (and hopefully impart disadvantage).
”Augh!” Nimb recoils from the bite against him, firing a bolt at the weasel who bit him, aiming for the legs, as to be non-lethal. Non-lethal Attack: 21 Damage: 8
(Edit: Just looked it up on page 198 of the PHB, apparently you can't make a non-lethal ranged attack, only melee attacks can be made to knock out the target, but of course it’s up to the DM if he wants to follow this, I think it doesn't make sense that I can't just shoot their legs, making it so they can't move)
Sybella will run up and strike whichever weasel seems weakened but isn't quite down yet with the butt of her rapier attempting to let it live.
Attack: 11 Damage: 9

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
As Jake refocuses on the two new weasels to appear around Nimb, he is taken back by the sound of electricity and hissing as one more appears following a Gom out of the hole. His swing goes wide of the weasel and misses.
Selinae moves towards the weasel that Jake had swung at and taking advantage of its distraction towards Jakes swings finds itself lopped over the head by a dagger handle. Slowly it staggers back and forth before falling onto its side, its eyes closing and tongue falling out.
As Del hisses at the Weasel it blinks for a second, almost offended by what he said, and just rears up hissing back at him. As it rears back though Nimb takes his shot piercing the creature in the side, it begins to back up slowly as it's eyes lower a little and it hisses at the bard.
Gom bashes at the creature that came out of the hole after him knocking it back against the rose bush as Mizzula releases a poison spray on the creature. As it inhales, it begins to cough as it's veins blacken throughout it's body. It falls to it side, legs twitching lightly as the last moment of life leave its body.
As Sybella moves strike the creature, it seems to weave its head out of her way at the last minute. Using the opportunity to bite at the young half-elf. Biting into the young woman's arm and backing away as it looks at the group, it's animistic instinct to defend itself ramping up.
[OOC]
Sorry I have learned that if you add a skill check with dice rolls after the post with dice rolls it registers it as manipulated, I recorded the original rolls and will put them in.
Nimb unfortunately I can understand why with a piercing weapon it would be hard to do a non-lethal attack since a projectile is going to pierce its target.
“Oh for the love of-“ Jake tries to focus, but can’t seem to hit these weasels at all. He tries once more to just bonk the weasel on the head and knock it out before he’ll give up entirely on this endeavor.
Attack: 9 Damage: 8

Using his shield, Gom tries to shove the last weasel toward the burrow, encouraging it to withdraw. Selinae had foreseen that this was a fruitless diversion from their real task, but convincing the weasels this was all a terrible misunderstanding was proving to be a tricky operation.

As the group looks around seeing the unconscious bodies of three weasels and the black veined body of one dead weasel laying in the garden - they also notice the house in the background, the outside as unwelcoming as one would expect with holes in the ceiling and boarded up windows and doors. The only access to the house the main entrance just past the well, which has a couple bricks falling and what appears to be something shimmer from what light makes its way through the cloudy sky.
OOC: For the sake that this weasel only had 1 HP left...and this is what the house looks like for reference.
Mizzula looks around and realizes that he's the only one who killed a weasel and becomes quite self conscious as well as confused. What does this odd group plan to do when the other weasels wake up? Not wanting to draw attention to the the one he slain, Mizzula starts to walk around the house.
"Well, that was exciting. Now to investigate the inside. Where's that door..."
Gom readies his morningstar and shield and begins making his way up the stairs. He is trying to discern anything suggestive of inhabitants other than weasels, any clues or signs that hint at the menace within.
