Orion sidles away from the door with the two guards, so long as he can do so without provoking an opportunity attack, and casts Thunderwave at 2d level towards the guards on the left. Anyone within a 15 foot cube must make a 14 CON save. Damage: 10. Upon a successful save, damage is halved. Upon a failure - full damage and the subject is pushed back 10 feet. As a bonus action, Orion casts Healing word 1st level, on himself: 4
Moving away will provoke five opportunity attacks. You have the two guards, the two sharpeners, and Grunkus on you, Orion. If you cast Thunderwave, it will affect the two guards and Grunkus. The two who were sharpening their swords are to the right and behind(?) you. The two guards save themselves by grabbing onto the doors and only take half damage. Grunkus takes the full impact, however, and is pushed through the doors into the next room.
Meanwhile, Deragor takes out the bow he was hiding under his shirt, takes aim, and fires at the hobgoblin longbowman, hitting him right in the eye. The hobgoblin goes down screaming in pain before falling unconscious.
A howling sound is heard as the two other dice players open the entryway doors.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Taxidea turns towards the entryway doors being opened by the dice players. He casts Fireball centered just beyond the doors hoping to catch the 2 opening the doors and whatever is immediately on the other side that might be coming to join the fray (20' sphere).
Dex save DC 14 for 1/2 damage: Attack: 16 Damage: 27

Orion casts Hail of Thorns, 2d level with his bonus action, then takes two shots. The first, ideally at a goblin that in the group running in from the door, trying to maximize the number of enemies within 5 feet of the target. To hit: 25. Damage: 9. The Hail of thorns does damage to the target and those within 5 feet of target: 16, halved on a successful DEX save of 14.
Second shot at the same target, unless he is dead, in which case just pick the hobgoblin throwing knives: to hit 27, damage: 9
Okay. Your first shot misses, but the hail of thorns kills the first goblin and wounds all of the others. Your second shot misses the dagger-throwing hobgoblin.
(OOC: Not exactly, Prim, but it is in that direction.)
Deragor also shoots at the dagger-throwing hobgoblin and hits for 8 hp damage.
The singed worg attacks Taxidea, doing 6 hp piercing damage from its bite attack.
"Bad dog!" Taxidea yells and casts Poison Spray. Con save DC 14 or the worg takes 14 poison damage.

Orion rolls for the HP: 1. (Thanks, Prim)
Using bonus action, Orion casts Hunters Mark on one of the hobgoblins attacking him. First shot: 11 to hit; 10 plus 3 for damage. Second shot (if the first hob dies, then move Hunter's Mark to the other one) is 20 to hit for 7 plus 2 damage.
If he can move without provoking opportunity attack, he will move closer Grunkus.
Taxidea kicks the worg, then turns to the Goblins attacking Prim. "Bad dogs!" he yells at them. Then casts Firebolt using metamagic to twin the spell and target both of them.
#1: Attack: 16 Damage: 13
#2:Attack: 20 Damage: 11

A howling sound is heard as the two other dice players open the entryway doors.
Taxidea, Prim, then Bolin.
Taxidea turns towards the entryway doors being opened by the dice players. He casts Fireball centered just beyond the doors hoping to catch the 2 opening the doors and whatever is immediately on the other side that might be coming to join the fray (20' sphere).

Everyone and everything around the door goes up in flame, including the doors themselves, as a lone wolf-like worg comes crashing through them.
Prim, then Bolin.
(Are any of the party in the blast? I thought Orion was close to the doors.
If Orion was in the blast she'll Center a Wither & bloom on him, otherwise as below
Did the runners actually open the doors to the corridor we came in, or are they still running with that intent?)
Trying to change action,see below
Orion closed the doors then went back to the two guards.
The two runners got caught in the blast of Taxidea's fireball. One is still alive but barely.
(Sorry, I misunderstood the situation. If allowed, completely different action.)
Prim says "Oh F**k!", with a disgusted expression. "OK, lest just do this then!"
She casts "Locate Object" to find the orbs.
The forked twig pulls you to the left and back a tad as you face the far wall from the entry.
Bolin swings at one of the hobgoblins but misses.
A group of goblins come running in from the door Grunkus flew through and to which Prim's spell points.
The first guard hits Orion for 7 hp damage. Booger flicker misses.
The hobgoblin with the daggers throws one at Deragor but misses.
The two sharpeners miss Orion with their next swings.
Grunkus yells, "Get them!" to the goblins as he lays flat on his back in the next room.
Orion, Deragor, then the worg.
(OOC the twig points into hob leaders office?)

Taxidea, Prim, then Bolin.

"...at worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Prim assesses the most enemies in a 10 ft radius that could catch Orion in the same radius.
Wither & bloom. 5 pts dam, con save for half & Orion gets a hp roll
(IIRC another concentration spell spoils concentration but I'm not sure if this would.)
Okay. The worg goes down. A hobgoblin guard and a sharpener take 5 hp; the other two saved.
Bolin swings his axe at a hobgoblin but misses.
Two goblins hit Prim for 12 hp slashing damage. One goblin accidentally mortally wounds himself with his own scimitar.
Two hobgoblins hit Orion for 7 hp damage. The dagger-weilding hobgoblin pulls out his sword and charges Deragor but misses.
Orion, Deragor, Taxidea, Prim, then Bolin.

Two hobgoblins go down from Orion's shots.
Deragor shoots down the dagger-weilding hobgoblin.
Taxidea, Prim, Bolin.
(Reaction=Shield, +5 AC.
Do the 2 hobs still hit?
And still concentrating on the Locate)
Taxidea kicks the worg, then turns to the Goblins attacking Prim. "Bad dogs!" he yells at them. Then casts Firebolt using metamagic to twin the spell and target both of them.
#1: Attack: 16 Damage: 13
#2:Attack: 20 Damage: 11
"...at worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Yes, Prim. The goblins still hit with an 18 and a 20.
One of the goblins goes down as he is hit with a firebolt.
Bolin moves and swings his battleaxe to take down the last hobgoblin.
The two remaining goblins use their nimble escape to disengage and run away, back through the doors they came.
