OOC: I believe it was Kagenthur and Geoffrey who would go invisible, and follow Zolya and Boisseau, since they have better deception.

Hey, It's me, RaccoonMaster! I'm back! I disappeared for a while there, and I'm very sporadic when I'm online lol.
I'm an actor, writer, singer (opera, musical theatre, and rock are my preferred genres), backpacker, and tall person (6'5 and counting). Pronouns are whatever, I mostly use They/Them though.

Zolyasighs audibly, exasperated at Kagenthur's antics. Normally, he would enjoy a good jest, but the stress of the situation, as well as the fact he has to deal with Fiends has made him less friendly than normal.
"Let us continue to room C, at least, that is where we should go. Maybe we trail that Imp and corner it for info."
With that, Zolya starts to follow the Imp, beckoning for his party members to follow behind.

Zolya pushes the door at the end of the hall open. As he does so a wave of sound crashes over you. Most of this comes from a stage, where a trio of human-sized wooden dolls play duelling violin solos, but this is mixed with the conversation and laughter of the lavishly dressed crowd watching them. Some sit at low tables, while others stand in small groups and chat over their drinks. Many of the figures are clearly devils but others seem drawn from all four corners of the multiverse. Among the throng hulking, ogres are casually speaking with what seems to be a levitating grey robe. An angel with torn wings and blood running from her eyes is laughing with a man with a wolf’s head. In the corner a band of what seem to be humanoid hippos in neat blue uniforms are playing cards and swapping war stories. You see glimpses of hags, erinyes, rakshashas, and githyanki as well. Near the door, along the western wall is a large bar, behind which four devils are working away at mixing up whatever potables the guests have requested.
You estimate the room has at least fifty guests in it, and at first glance you see no sign of Rahmzur du Mar. The stage is to the north, a twin set of stairs, leading upward and ending in a cloud of fog, is to the south. A door can be seen in the eastern wall. Additionally doors on either side of the stage indicate a backstage area exists.
(I've moved to a better map, although it lacks grid squares. The room is roughly 100' x 75'.
Zolya walks up to the bar, and leans over to one of the bar-tenders "Listen, I'm one of tonights performers, but I need to see Rahmzur on private business. Do you know where I can find him?"

The devil tending bar gives Zolya a mild look of surprise but offers a surprisingly detailed reply, "He'll be along soon, I'm sure. Rahmzur will want every possible minute to mix with his guests."
The bartender makes a sweeping motion with his hand toward the many creatures filling the ballroom. The devil then corrects himself. "Private business, you say? Well, he's likely somewhere beyond that door* over there. Not sure you should stride in their unless expressly invited to do. How about a drink first?"
*the devil points to the door in the easter wall on the opposite side of the room.
"Oh thank you, but I prefer to keep my head clear before a performance. Your information has been invaluable, I will not forget it soon. Perhaps I could put in a word with Rahmzur..." Zolya trails off, thinking for a second in an attempt to endear himself to the Bar-tender Fiend "And do not worry, my friend. Rahmzur needed to speak with us about something special for tonights performance. Something very special"
The orc winks, then strides away, finding his way through the assembled crowd. Using his height, he peers over the heads of devils, keeping an eye out for the host while making his way towards the easter door.

Boisseau follows behind Zolya with a look of disgust on his face. "What kind of a crowd is zis? I guess ze puppets don't bring in the numbers like flesh and soul." Boisseau watches the clouds/mist of the stairs trying ti see if he can make out any movement up there.
Zolya and Boisseau pick their way through the crowd, the bulk of whom pay little heed to the orc and human who are clearly not dressed for the occasion. Geoffrey and Kagenthur follow along, doing their best to avoid bumping into anyone. The journey through the ballroom goes smoothly until a boisterous (and possibly intoxicated) group of ogres suddenly and en masse rise and begin to walk toward the bar. Not only do these blue-skinned giants take up too much space, but they are less than graceful as they do so...
(DC 13 DEX saving throw needed for all characters to avoid a mishap with the ogres.)
Zolya moves out of the way of the giants, serene as ever
DEX save: 10 plus 4

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(Sorry for the delay, everyone. Thanks for your patience)
Zolya, Boisseau, and Geoffrey read the ogre's unsteady gait and are able to avoid a collision with the massive creature. Kagenthur, however, is not so fortunate, and he takes the full brunt of the impact (suffering 1 bludgeoning damage in the process).
The ogre is too fuzzy-headed to realize he smashed into something that he did not see. So, naturally he assumes his spilled drink is to be blamed on someone he can see: Zolya.
"Oi, clumsy-footed orc! Buy me a drink now, and I'll forgive ya for this mess."
The ogre points to the bar as if to say follow me and we'll settle this over there.

You are correct

Understood. Thanks for the clarification. Proceed accordingly.
Like he's telling a ghost story, Kagenthur says, "SoOoOoo, doOoo we goOo toO RoOooOm B OooOr C?"
He's also waiving his arms like an
idiotspooky specter.Zolya sighs audibly, exasperated at Kagenthur's antics. Normally, he would enjoy a good jest, but the stress of the situation, as well as the fact he has to deal with Fiends has made him less friendly than normal.

(Will Geoffrey, Kagenthur, and Boisseau follow Zolya?)
Yes. He will trail behind and keep looking about
D&D since 1984
Boisseau follows behind Zolya with a look of disgust on his face. "What kind of a crowd is zis? I guess ze puppets don't bring in the numbers like flesh and soul." Boisseau watches the clouds/mist of the stairs trying ti see if he can make out any movement up there.
Kagenthur is following diligently but is still silently making exaggerated flowy movements like he's made out of ectoplasm.
Zolya and Boisseau pick their way through the crowd, the bulk of whom pay little heed to the orc and human who are clearly not dressed for the occasion. Geoffrey and Kagenthur follow along, doing their best to avoid bumping into anyone.
