(( Cladmir still has 23 HP -- there were some really lucky rolls -- i.e. bad rolls by the trolls -- there during the fight. So while he is not feeling great he can see that Kroshav had it much worse. ))
Cladmir saw the clearly battered paladin heal others and himself, and was extremely touched when the Dragonborn offered to heal him while looking much worse off than him.
"I'm good," replied Cladmir as he straighten himself up. "It's going to take a much more than that to put this old soldier down."
Kroshav gives him a grin and clasps his forearm. "That's the spirit! My mentor used to say, 'Soldiers don't get old without being tough!' Usually that was right before making me do something I wasn't gonna like."

As Cladmir and Kroshav bond, everyone else looks at the moguls until Ernos snaps and chucks a snowball.
It lands short of one of the snow hills, and nothing appears to happen for a moment, then two. Then very, very slowly a pair of glowing red eyes peek out. There is a moment of just staring before, seemingly by silent agree, several of the mounds shift and rise.
The half dozen yetis all appraise the somewhat bloodied group, noses twitching.
((Not yet in combat. Doing anything or just wanting to kick off?))
((They are all more than 60' away now and are spread out loosely, but a 15ft cone would get a pair of them in most cases and three if Kroshav got into melee with one to release his mighty breath.))
Kroshav will move to make sure he's near the edge of their party, so as not to catch Clad or Jaq in his breath of he unleashes it, before yelling "You don't want any of this, get out of here!", accompanied by a shooing motion as he lets a bit of smoke lick up from his nostrils.
There's a part of him that wants to take Lurn's death out on them, but he and Clad are surely not at their peak right now.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Cladmir was so distracted by Kroshav's compliment that he didn't notice what was happening until the paladin rushed away and yelled at something. Seeing what others saw and inspired by the Dragonborn's awesome display of fury and powers (Kroshav will have to roll like a 1 for Clad to see otherwise), he rushed up close to the paladin wielding his shield and Warhammer and let out a bellowing war cry in support.
Kroshav and Cladmir both take a shot at scaring off the yeti's but only seem to manage to bring the yeti's attention to their bloodied states. Even at this distance the party see the yetis' nostrils flare and a few even seem to start drooling.
((Anything from Jaq or Ernos? Otherwise this seems to be heading one direction.))
((Ernos' only plan, as always, is to set things on fire. First one of the shaggy snowbeasts by putting a bonfire under it, then himself via Flames of Phlegethos. But that'll have to wait until initiative is rolled I'm sure))

As most of the yetis lean forward to charge one of the yeti's heads snaps to the side and it lifts its head to the air. It snarls something and the rest twist their heads up, heads moving from side to side. Then, seemingly without any signal, they rapidly simultaneously scatter in all directions hunkered low. One is heading generally towards the group, but it doesn't look like it will intersect.
((Doing anything to stop them?))

Cladmir straightened himself even more after that.
Ernos throws a snowball at one of the mounds.

Some of the smoke tickles his nose and he sneezes.
((Ready fire breath for if they charge if the intimidation attempt was so pitiful that it didn't take an action ... 🙄))

Jaq will shake his head, "This isn't good, I'll take to the air if we begin fighting."
He thinks back fighting his last yeti, did they use projectile weapons?"
((The yetis did not use ay projectiles, but then they were also engaged in melee/eating Lurn.))
Jaq doesn't see anything on the yeti that he would call anything but a melee weapon, teeth and claws.

There is a pregnant pause after the less than stellar 'scare them off' attempt by the two frontliners, the yeti gauging their presumptive prey.
