As I said before, Kethra was right beside the north door with a held action to attack the most damaged target within range to knock them out. Since this is now the first person who enters through the door, Kethra emerges from the wall like a shadow (just rp, not hidden).
Jairus fiewa on one of the 5 Woebringer thugs (not the leader), the first one visible and adjacent to Kethra who is holding the line at the door, firing his hand crossbow as an attack action, and then again as a bonus action. All damage on hits is non-magical piercing.
Attack Action Attack Roll: 21
Bonus Action Attack Roll: 12
Attack action, 21 to hit, damage of 11 Inclusive of sneak attack
Jairus drops one of the melee thugs with a well placed bolt.
(Assuming Tyde just targets one of the melee thugs. No, I won't make you reroll your crit :).)
Tyde puts down another one with a bolt, albeit of a slightly different sort.
The leader gets struck by Symon's flaming crossbow bolt, then bonked over the head rather rudely. He doesn't seem to worse for wear, though.
Rubin hits one of the crossbow thugs, not quite dropping him.
(Jairus is up. Two melee bandits are down (just the leader remains in melee), while all three crossbow ones remain. They're all still clustered around the area of the doorway.)

Jairus fires on the one distracted by their melee - the leader - in order to take advantage of their distraction and better aim at their vitals. Any hits deal non magical piercing damage.

Watching the fierce white haired girl fall at the hand of the opposing leader, Davian instinctively draws upon the natural surroundings. Taking energy from the world around him he whispers a word towards the unconcious warrior. "Live".
Kethra's eyes flash open, first a tear filled pale blue, then quickly replaced by a wrathful, blood-colored red. (Bonus action: Rage)
Jumping up to a standing position, Kethra rises up as a cloaked silhouette when mixed with the chaotic shadows cast against the Driftglobe.
"You cultists....killed my master...in cold blood..."
The angry silhouette suddenly moves forward to the leader, to put the Woe-Bringer leader into a standing armbar. Grapple: 21
With her free hand, she flicks her sword up from its sheathed position then catches it with the same hand. "...I'll have you repay every last drop of blood!"

Jairus narrows his eyes and takes careful aim, remembering his Zhentarim training - don't let anything distract you from your target. Seeing Kethra in danger, the reminder of the cultists who his own blood may have been associated with, he puts it all out of his mind, and does the thing he has practiced. He aims, and he fires (at the leader again engaged in melee).

"Best throw down that bolt shooter and give up, bud," Jairus says (out of turn) to the last of the enemies. "You ain't gonna win this one on your own."

"We're curious YUP, but I think we should chat--
Bonk to the head: 18 Damage: 4
--once you've calmed down!"
Edit: Critical hit! Extra damage LOL 3
In his haste to position himself, Davian failed to prepare a cantrip or an attack. Watching the battle unfold he says an internal prayer to Silvanus.
OOC: I think this is the initiative order. The 5e rule in ties is PCs go first, and decide the order among themselves with ties between allied PCs:
Jairus: 21
Woe-bringer leader: 20
Rubin: 18
Tyde: 17
Kethra: 6
Davian: 6
Woe-bringers: 6
Symon: 4

Both of Jairus's bolts hit home, but he still stands (albeit less steadily than before). (33 damage on him total)
The leader immediately throws himself into a flurry of attacks on Kethra.

Kethra takes 22 damage. Which, since she's not currently raging, means she's unconscious.

Rubin takes aim at the crossbow wielders of the enemy warriors. He sends two shots at them, loading faster than the eye can follow...
Attack: 12 Damage: 4
bonus action Attack: 19 Damage: 4
Rubin drops the wounded crossbowman, then slightly wounds another.
(Tyde, Kethra and Davian)

With her free hand, she flicks her sword up from its sheathed position then catches it with the same hand. "...I'll have you repay every last drop of blood!"
She moves towards the archers so that now she's grappled both the leader but also threatening disadvantage to the Woe-bringer archers who were staying back (who I hope don't have crossbow expert lol).
Grapple contest: 16
Damian brings Kethra back from the brink.
Kethra drags the leader towards his lackeys.
(Could give one of them disadv. at least.)
Tyde puts down another crossbowman.
The remaining crossbowman snarls, and drops his crossbow to pull out his scimitar. He slashes Kethra, trying to avoid hitting his leader.
Attack: 22 Damage: 2

(Not Jairus but Symon is at the bottom of the order.)
Symon seeing how ferocious the leader is fighting, tries to finish him off with a bolt of his own.
Attack: 13 Damage: 5
Another medical problem. Indefinite hiatus. Sorry, all.
(You’re right, my bad.)
Symon hits the leader, but he’s still not down.
(Sorry for the brief post, don;t have much time rn.)
(Jairo’s is actually up this time)

"Best throw down that bolt shooter and give up, bud," Jairus says (out of turn) to the last of the enemies. "You ain't gonna win this one on your own."
The bandit bares his teeth.
"I die on my own terms, scum."
