“Does anyone see a rock nearby. Or any sort of blunt, small, object that won’t do any hurt if I were to throw it?”
Trimyrai notices palm sized rocks nearby on the cavern floor, and grabs one. Reverie sees the clay bowls half-filled with whatever alcoholic swill the sahuagin were drinking for the arrival of the honored guests (the devils), and grabs one of those. Each offer one to Jack.

Jack takes the bowl, careful not to spill it. “Ok. Froskan, prepare a Minor Illusion. When the bowl reaches the ground, I want you to say in any language ‘come get me!’. I’m going to make use of my hand.” Jack creates a small hand in the air, which holds the bowl from the bottom. “Everyone, I’d recommend hiding first. Even us.’ Jack hides, hoping to not be seen for his plan, behind their vision.
(Are you staying in the main cavern and trying to stealth here, or going inside the side cave?
Your group is staying behind cover to avoid being seen, but if the 4 demons rush into the main cavern, they may be noticed by the sahuagin or the devils.)

(Post 1417. The east side and center of the cavern are empty, but there are still devils and fish-men in the cavern (north side). The traffic jam in the SW corner, mentioned in post 1412, has not unclogged yet... No one is paying attention to the east side of the cavern, but loud noises or exaggerated movements might change that.)

"I am not sure..." Reverie then turns to Isk. "Isk, do you have a plan perhaps?"

"Trim, it is never a good idea to do it." Reverie turns to look at Trimyrai, frowning. "There may be another way to do. Let us think of something else. Something that is safer for us and the prisoners, both."

When Trimyrai mentions that he wants to fight, Isk gives him a nod and a smile, "Yes, we must fight. We can't let these demons run free if we have the ability to destroy them."
Isk picks up the small pebble and says, "I'm going to Light this stone and toss it to the far side of the cavern. Then, as the mongrel things go to look at it, Frosk and Trim, you open up on them. Reverie and I will either advance on them or intercept them when they advance on it. Jack, play that drum." He pauses, looking at the group, "Sound good?"
“I don’t think we want that.” Jack says. “Some leftover sauhuagin might come here and if we are knocked out fighting the demons, we become one. Doesn’t sound like fun.”

Your group has some time to coordinate your actions, but there is some urgency.
The devil and sahuagin leaders will finish arguing at some point and come out.
When the fish soldiers stop trying to get past the devil guards in the northern part of the cavern, they might notice what is going on in the eastern part of the cavern.
The merfolk outside are outnumbered and outgunned. When they are forced to retreat, the sahuagin platoon in the SW corner are going to come back into this cavern.

Froskan looks at the others. "Unfortunately, outside of my illusions I dont' have a lot I can do to distract or help us sneak past creatures." He looks back at the side cavern they need to enter to find the prisoners. "How far in are the demons? Can we get inside the cave at least and outside of view of the main cavern here while we figure out what to do?"
“Screw it.“ Jack uses his mage Hand to have the bowl float down, but instead of it being gentle, the hand drops the bowl and it (hopefully) makes a distracting sound. ”maybe that will distract them? At least so that if we have to fight, we can get the drop on them.”

(The one demon you could see had its back to the entrance of the cage, and was looking at the cage to the east. Are you dropping the bowl so the demon will turn around and look in your direction? I'm not clear on what you have in mind.)
(For Froskan; the one demon that could be seen at the southern end of the cave is 50' to your east. Reverie's Divine Sense determined that the others were in a line north of that one.)

(The rest of the main cavern is to the west, behind the party. Your group is crouched just outside the entrance of the east side cave. The northern part of this cave is obscured from your position, and will require going inside to see it. The 4 demons were pacing north and south while Reverie had her Divine Sense active. Only R4 is directly seen. It is facing the cage to the east, and is making menacing sounds towards it. The noises from inside the cave by the demons and prisoners are significantly dampened by the time it reaches the entrance.)
