As the arrow collides into him, Solomon instinctively casts the one thing that can save him, a Shield forms at the point of impact, stopping what would be a fatal blow.
Swelling with frustration, Solomon will Polymorph into a Tyrannosaurus Rex and begin sprinting toward Rex and Elon.

Flame erupts from the gatehouse, indicating Myschael is still alive. Tadriel sprints along the wall below to the gate, making sure to stay close to the wall to avoid exposing himself to those above.
(Not sure if Solomon has a Bonus action in mind. If so, feel free to use it)
Talvus can be heard above clashing with several opponents at once. Meanwhile, another volley of arrows is loosed at the approaching Alvernians. It doesn't create many casualties, but does hinder their advance slightly. You have about a minute to secure the gate, if not fully open it, before your allies reach the wall. Looking within, the Dalenorian force has only a couple minutes longer before they reach the gate.

While Elon and Rex work the wheel, the gate shudders and begins to creak open. Shouts from below rise up as guards try to brace the doors, but Rex's great strength keeps the tide in the party's favor. Evelyn is able to make out a soldier on the wall through the opposite doorway and fells him with a pair of well-placed arrows.
From below Solo-Rex, a shout rises up, "Hey! That's a nice trick, but mine are better!" The elf archer launches another arrow at the giant reptile. As it sails, the air seems to displace from the missile's velocity.
Attack vs. Solomon: 27 for 17
(Spoiler: Action Surge for some added, Readied fun ;) )
Solomon can see a terrible battle raging atop the gatehouse. A wall of flame separates Talvus and Myschael as a half-dozen soldiers fire arrows across the flame or engage the minotaur with blades and spears. Despite this, Talvus seems to be holding his ground. The elvish archer calls out once more, "Sister! Jump!" With a shout of joy, Myschael darts toward Talvus. Her fiery barricade falls before her and a bolt of lightning fires through Talvus, arcs through the giant form of Solo-Rex, and slams the top of the wall some 30' behind. At the end of the bolt, Myschael stands triumphant, arrogant in her flashy escape.
(Need a DEX save from Solomon, DC 17, or take 30 lightning dmg, half on success)
Talvus Dex save: 4
Once Myschael crashes down opposite Solo-Rex, her form suddenly shudders and she is replaced by the archer from below. On the street, Myschael stands in the former's place. "See?" The archer gloats, "My tricks are a bit better, yeah?" Another arrow is nocked and sails at the dinosaur, though this one lacks the potency of the last.

Oh boy, Concentration Check first: 21. The large dinosaur hero braces against the impact, roaring toward Myschael before pausing as he watches the lightning race toward him. Dex Save: 13. Lightning electrifies the behemoth as Solomon strains to retain his form (24) and manages to hold his ground. Solomon... SMASH!

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
If so, I’ll just put this here:
Solorex first slams his tail against the archer that just appeared next to him, Attack: 16 Damage: 21 bludgeoning. The beast then slams onto the city street and roars toward the elf as his jaws snap at her, Attack: 21 Damage: 34 piercing damage, if that hits, she is grappled.
As you swipe your tail at the archer, she suddenly vanishes from existence! No incantations, no signs, no visual effect; she's just...gone. In the moment your mind processes it, you see her now standing 20' further along the wall, bow ready for the next arrow.
Ignoring the momentary setback, you leap down to the street below and attack Myschael. She is quick and her armor is formidable, but your jaws are too massive for her to avoid. However, as you clamp down, your mind reels and you feel as though something is forcing you to yield (Second attack roll please, Disadvantage imposed on your attack ;) )

Your mind is stabbed and wracked by the force that tried to displace you. Myschael cries out as the jaws are barely halted by a mail shirt, but you feel as though her form is covered in invisible spikes.
With a final roar from above, the body of a soldier comes falling from the gatehouse roof and lands on the catwalk outside. Talvus leaps down from above as the last few archers flee and he enters to meet everyone, "Get that gate open quick, Bründir will be here any minute. I'm heading below to break up the rabble blocking that gate."

The gate continues to creak open under Elon and Rex's efforts. Undortunately, there isn't much space or opportunity for extra hands in the endeavour. From below, the chaos of close-quarter melee combat rises up as Talvus begins to smash through the efforts of those below.
From where you stand, Evelyn, the newest foe stands approximately 60' away, bow in hand. Below her are Solorex and Myschael. You can see some activity immediately below you as the first of the defenders at the gate begin to route.

Attack: 26 Damage:14 + 3
Attack: 22 Damage:8 + 4
(If both hit, Colossus slayer is supposed to only apply if they are below their hit point maximum. Its hard to tell with a group of guards but I'm sure this lady hasn't taken damage yet.)
