I'll assume that's my action - so I'll use my cunning action to disengage (since I assume I moved close enough to strahd he'd get an oppy on me) if I am not that close - then I'll dash away from him instead.
"George, be a good little monkey and give Uncle Strahd a big ol hug from the Morning Lord"
"Unhand him you monster!"Viorela whips Strahd's arm. "Why don't you try me again!"The words left Vio's lips without much thought. She felt indebted to Adanmar and wished for this whole business to finally be done.

Start of his turn: Strahd takes 20 radiant damage, Lair Action shifts
Strahd heaves between labored breathes. The sunlight has reduced much of himself to bare white bone. Strahd locks eyes with Adanmar, “Well... desperate times, Blood Hunter...” He places a hand on Adanmar’s chest as the faint glimmer of orange light twinkles out from between his fingers, “Ash to ash, as they say...”
Strahd casts Fireball at 5th level for 45, everyone is caught in the detonation.
Dex Saves for Half!
Strahd burns a Legendary Resistance to succeed. He then falls through the floor, as he did earlier through the walls. He falls 200 feet and takes 59 bludgeoning damage. Strahd Von Zarovich crashes into the floor in a plume of ash and shadow. It seems his body has taken a misty form. The mist is slowly seeping into the floor.
Davmorn Save: 2. Davmorn is blown back in the explosion. He is unconscious.

Victory is short-lived as Viorela manages to let out a "Shit," before the blast seems to consume her. However, whoever is left standing will see she is just unconscious and breathing if barely.

Adanmar Windblood
"You will?"Adanmar says with a grin, staring at Strahd with anger and fury. Then, Viorela burns the Vampir with her light spell, he manages to avoid the Sucker bite and when he releases his rage ball, the Revenant tries to miraculously duck away..
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
With that, and George’s Save, combat is now over for the moment! The cloud of Strahd remains two hundred feet below you and will quickly escape if you don’t think of a way to get down. Davmorn and Viorela remain unconscious and will need death saves shortly!
"Oh..no...no no no NO! You won't escape....my dear Lord, not now" The Revenant, still wielding the Sunsword, rushes down the stairs, he knows from his ancestors that Vampire could 'escape' to their hidden coffin and recover...recover...until they come back almost untouched, he will find Strahd in his coffin if necessary and pin him to the heart with the stake, no way Strahd will avoid his fate. "I could sense him, following him my friends, Elwarith come, George pick up Davmorn and Viorela corps with us, if they die I believed I could make the trick again and bring them back, but I don't want to let the Sucker go, come on friends, we have to finish him"
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Seeing that the misty Strahd is directly down the stairwell from us Elwarith will take two shots at the retreating mist (at disadvantage) before following Adanmar down the stairs
The first arrow goes wide, but the second arrow strikes true and leaves a visible, unchanging hole in the mist as it lurks away.
The way that we will run this is that the group is now chasing Strahd throughout the lower levels of the castle! Each of you have an opportunity to allow the team to catch up by making a relevant skill check. Make an argument for it and I’ll likely allow it!

(That’s right! A skill challenge! With... two members down... That’ll be fine!)
Elwarith’s tracking is successful! As you all run through the halls of the castle, ghouls bust in through the windows. However, Elwarith, being prepared, releases three arrows at once into the heads of the undead, which collapse in a heap as they are pinned to the wall!
You may do so! Much to Strahd’s annoyance.

Yes, I would say disengage is the best option in that regard.

Adanmar Windblood
"Ok Lord Sucker, kill us all, yeah, you can certainly try..." The Revenant wields his Sunsword and releases two wide swipes at Strahd
((Action: Attack1 17 Radiant Damage: 14 + 1 Crimson Radiant Damage / Attack: 29 Radiant Damage: 10 + 2 Crimson Radiant Damage))
Strahd manages to grab Adanmar’s wrist and throw him off balance. The two attacks both miss.
Strahd uses a Legendary Action to attack Adanmar: 23, wait, Disadvantage: 22. Strahd’s hand locks around Adanmar’s throat, “I will...”

With another strike, counts threads of light lash out against the vampire lord as it rips through him, he grinds his teeth, yet endures.
Legendary Action: Bite: Attack: 15 Damage: 9, but Adanmar manages to resist the attack and block him with a swift strike of his hilt.

Uhhh Elwarith will revert to his instincts and use the shadows to hopefully allow them to catch up to the vampire
