The crazed dwarf turns his eyes toward Gordon, and with a sudden gleeful smile he lets out a roar, then swings his battleaxe at him.
FREE: Dwarf uses Reckless - he gets advantage on melee attacks, but attacks against him get advantage until the start of this next turn. ACTION:Attack Gordon with his greataxe. * Greataxe Slash - Attack: 17, Mundane Slashing Damage: 9 (or 18 if crit)
The dwarf's strike lands home, cutting into Gordon and causing the creature to cackle, an oddly high-pitched sound for it. The sight of Gordon's blood almost seems to drive it into a frenzy as it prepares to strike him again.
"'Ey! Back off!" yelled the bounty hunter as he rushed across the bridge toward the platform. Upon reaching Redoff's side, he crouched and pulled two blades, flinging them at the dwarf as he stood back up.
MOVE: Thirty feet across the bridge to Redoff's position FREE: Draw two daggers ACTION: Attack the dwarf by throwing the first dagger * Dagger Throw - Attack: 18, Silvered Piercing Damage: 8 (or 9 instead if crit) BONUS: Attack the dwarf again by throwing the second dagger * Dagger Throw - Attack: 13, Silvered Piercing Damage: 4 (or 7 instead if crit)

(( Huh, let's try that again... ))
ACTION: Attack the dwarf by throwing the first dagger * Dagger Throw - Attack: 17, Silvered Piercing Damage: 7 (or 10 instead if crit) BONUS: Attack the dwarf again by throwing the second dagger * Dagger Throw - Attack: 14, Silvered Piercing Damage: 5 (or 8 instead if crit)
While the first is deflected by the dwarf's armor, the second dagger finds its target. However, it apparently isn't enough to cause the dwarf to break it's focus on Gordon.
His axe raised menacingly, the dwarf continues to go after Gordon, when suddenly Evan manages to grab onto him! A confused grunt is followed by rapid, frenzied jerking to try to throw the adventurer off, and a torrent of gibberish that sounds harsh enough to be cursing were the assailant in his proper mind.
I would still like to move, how close am I to an exit?
(( You are in the middle of the platform that is next to the burning treehouse. You are twenty feet from the bridge (and Redoff, Whistler and Gordon standing in front of it.) The bridge is thirty feet long, and there's a ladder down on the other side of it. The platform is connected to nothing else... the only other exit is to jump down off the platform, to the ground 30 feet below. ))
(( Redoff extinguished the flames in front of the bridge, so there's no fire directly between you and the ladder anymore (although that will probably change soon.) The dwarf's not unconscious though, you'd effectively be dragging him with you, while moving at half-speed. ))

Hefting his maul over one shoulder, Darbakh marches directly toward Evan and the crazed dwarf with determination; his familiar slithers a little bit behind him. As he walks, he raises his free hand, letting cinders crackle in the palm of his hand. As he marches, he yells at the mad dwarf in Dwarvish.
Your clan couldn’t smith a child’s training axe!
MOVE: twenty five feet toward Even and the enemy dwarf ACTION: attack the dwarf by casting fire bolt * Fire bolt: 9
The crazed dwarf, now prone (as is Evan) groans, but looks toward Darbakh as he approaches. There's a look of confusion on his face as he is mocked, but Darbakh gets the distinct impression that he at least knows, somehow, that he's being disrespected. The eldritch knight's fiery blast misses the bloodied warrior as he rolls and attempts to get to his feet, muttering gibberish the entire time.
(( Both the crazed dwarf and Evan are still prone on the ground. Redoff, Whistler and Gordon are still on the platform that is catching fire. Aeron is also up in the trees, a ladder down right next to him, and a 30-foot bridge separating him from the others in the village. ))
Aeron sighs, looking down at the people on the floor, and then deciding to help the people on the burning platform, casting create food and water (His best way to extinguish), summoning water over the fire, and 45 pounds of assorted foods away from the fire.
The cleric moves across the bridge to get closer to the flames, and his magic summons matter from the ether: food appears on the platform, while water falls to the floor in the burning treehouse, flowing to smother the entirety of the fire in the structure.
The shimmering, transparent sphere of force that was rolling toward the edge of the platform finally tips over the edge and falls down, barely missing Evan as it lands and bounces several feet. It gives an unearthly chime as it hits, like the sound of a sturdy glass bell struck by a mallet, before bouncing a couple more times and finally coming to a stop on the forest ground.
(( At a rate of one gallon per square of flames, it will take one more casting of the spell to completely douse the fire; the treehouse itself is good, but the tree it is built on (and a couple of nearby railings) still have multiple spots aflame. If the players wish to work to put out the remainder of the fire by hand, it'll take 6 player-turns to do so (either 3 players take two turns each, or 2 players take three turns each, etc.)
Alternatively, given that the tree is still alive and the bulk of the heat source has been extinguished, it's a 50-50 shot on if the remaining fire dies out on its own now.
Redoff, Gordon, Aeron and Whistler are all now on the platform; Evan and Darbakh are facing the crazed dwarf below. ))
