A strand of water whips out of Kristofferson's extended hands and lashes around Nezznar, pulling him to within melee of K, and he takes 17 bludgeoning.
Ash takes advantage of K evening the playing field. He runs forward to flank the Black Spider and cuts him with Zappy (14 to hit (+flank), 8 piercing + 4 lightning). He then holds a shortsword at Nezznar's unconscious neck. "Yield or he dies."
The spider's are not intelligent enough to strategize and don't understand Common. They both shoot webs, one each at K (18 to hit) and Ash (19 to hit), the webs sticking to each of you.
K is Restrained.
Ash is Restrained.
The bugbears look at each other. They drop the dwarves and Dash out of the southern doors.
Kristofferson pulls a dagger and cuts his way out of the web (25 to hit (crit of course), 12 piercing). He then cuts Ash out (7 to hit) but can't get the thing to cut.
Ash cuts with his shortsword (16 to hit, 10 piercing) to get out of the web.
K hit the spider with his quarterstaff (25 (crit!), 10 bludgeoning) then kicks it (22 hit, 7 bludgeoning)
Ash cuts out of the web again with his shortsword (10 hit, 10 piercing) then rushes to the spider opposite K to flank and slashes with Zappy (16 (+flank), 7 piercing + 1 lightning)
Ash searches Nezznar for anything valuable. Investigation: 14
Badger lays his hands on the two dwarves, letting the energy from Tyr pass through him, healing each for 1 HP using Lay on Hands. When they come to, he says, "Rest easy, friends. I am Clive Badger, paladin of Tyr and member of the Quote Unquote Fantastic. This is Kristofferson and Ash. We have rescued you from the evil Black Spider in the service of your brother Gundren, may he rest in peace, and Sir Sildar Hallwinter of the Lord's Alliance. Rest now. We will escort you back to safety in Neverwinter."
The red-headed dwarf runs his head and says weakly, "I am Tharden. That is Nundro. We are simple miners and speculators who planned to reform this mine for—" he loses his train of thought as he works through a coughing fit.
Nundro still looks frightened. "The bugbears will hurt us again. We must remain docile here."
Ash says, "Look around you. We have slain the evil mage and his giant spiders. We have slain his bugbears and goblins and ruffians. We have saved you."
K says, "We know you and your intentions. We have worked for your brother Gundren Rockseeker. We are here to rescue you and we have won."
Badger lays his hands on them and heals each for another 4 HP each.
On the way back to Phandalin, Badger will inform the dwarves of Gundren's untimely end, the map to the cave, the Spectator and the Forge of Spells, the secret safer passage past the waves, and anything else that occurs to him that would help them take control of the mine. At a time of test, he will attune to the gauntlets of orc power.
You all achieve a long rest and reach Phandalin without issue. The Rockseekers have a modest home in the village to which they retire. What would you like to do in town, as you have arrived mid-afternoon.
Badger will visit Linene to send 400 gold back to Bramble, paying and tipping her 10 gold. He'll then check in with Sir Hallwinter. He then hangs out at the common room of Stonehill Inn, chatting with Elsa, Trilena, and other patrons.
Ash spends much needed time alone in the woods or in the room, practicing roguish activities or otherwise just relaxing.
Badger: You learn that Sildar Hallwinter has not yet returned from his quest.
K: You find Sister Garaele kneeling before the Shrine of Luck. As you approach, she stands and brushes her hands off on her dress, squinting into the afternoon sun. She smiles as you approach and takes a few steps to meet you. "You've made it back alive!" she says with sarcastic surprise, but you can tell she is pleased and a little relieved. "Has Sir Hallwinter come back with you?"
Kristofferson does a little meek wave when Sister Garaele greets him. "Hi, Sister Garaele. No, Sir Hallwinter split from our party when we headed to the mine and he went north for your quest. Has he not returned yet?"

K takes a few steps forward (10' west) and channels his Ki to send a Water Whip at Nezznar. He must make a Dex save.

With the added curing, they both calm significantly. They look around and see the slain beasts. You help them to their feet.
Are your intentions to leave the cave now and escort the dwarves to Phandalin?
