Tackle box has a spark of intelligent thought and realizes that the circling group of attackers will screw up the ability to evacuate the townsfolk if they don't think everything is normal next time they make it around.
He suggests moving the burning pile straight out from the door just far enough to let people pass and to have 2 convincing people in robes and a couple others stay out side and weekend at Bernie's some kobolds which should be convincing through the smoke screen.
Augustus is still wearing a robe. He will stand watch outside and if necessary, do a "Weekend at Bernie's" with a kobold corpse. If he does, he will shove each hand inside a kobold and work them like a puppets. He will hide behind a barrel and conduct a "puppet show" with his arms raised above the barrels.
Thallan and Yagsi enter the temple and are immediately met with the sharp points of improvised weapons pointed at each of them from about 8 townsfolk trembling in their boots. A fairly stocky bearded man with the look of a farmer holding a pitchfork has the most nerve yells "stop right there you filthy cultists!"

"thank the Gods you're not cultists. But I don't know what just the two of you are going to do. You there dwarf, you look like a holy man maybe you can pray our front gate holds."
Outside the roving group of attackers passes keeping a wide berth from the smoke. From his perch on the balcony Zilzu can see clearly on of the cultist stop and kind of turn his head at the puppet show... Sweat beads on Zilzu's brow hoping he doesn't have to act when he hears them say "incompetent twerps, we may as well hold up at the front gate at this point." And the begin to pass
When they pass, Augustus removes his puppets and goes into the church.
Upon seeing the villagers, (I assume that he would recognize a few)
"Im glad you're all safe. Hurry, we must leave. The patrol just passed. We have a window, but it could close soon. We must be swift, follow me and these brave souls." He motions towards to two party members in the room."
The people in this place are absolutely terrified this is the scariest thing that's ever happened to them, there are more than just a small group with weapons at the back their women and children an elderly in the main hall where the gate is

What do I roll?
Phineas, still wearing his robe, grabs a lifeless Kobold by the back of the shirt and props him up next to him.

You hear the battering ram smash the gate with a force that is clear will only be a matter of time before it destroys the gate.
We should lead them out the way we just came in if the coast is clear. Make sure we don’t run into the cultist groups running around the temple
"lead who where? We aren't going back out there with but two adventures to protect us from those monsters!"
