Idalie nods as they take in the scene in the chamber beyond the bridge, grateful their presence doesn't seem to have been noticed and elated to learn from Nate that the girl, if in dire straits, is at least still alive. They need to move fast. "Alright," She says, drawing an arrow and knocking to her bow. "Let's move like hunters, quick and clean. Take them now, while we have the advantage of surprise. Just remember, the girl is our main objective, killing them is great but she's the goal. Nothing gets near her and lives." Taking aim from the entry of the chamber, Idalie sets her eye on the goblin in robes.
Alright then, are we doing initiative rolls? Do we get a surprise round?

On the bridge Quinn see what looks like a bugbear next to what could perhaps be a magical gifted goblin, with two goblins off to the side.
"Slowly down there! Now I can't see the girl if she really is in as bad condition as you say then maybe a swift approach is necessary, but as you can see I've not dropped my disguise spell..."
Quinn says motioning to his current form.
"...But if you are willing to give my plan ago then I would suggest hiding and let me try to convince these goblins that there is a problem outside and they will need to come immediately, be ready with ranged attacks if it should go wrong, but if it should go well then when they cross the bridge we should attack with the element of surprise. Not to mention that it will get at least a few of them away from Bess. This is only a suggestion, either way that first shot will need to hit it's mark."
Quinn looks over to Idalie.
"I know that we can rely on you for this Perky"
(Gives Idalie Bardic Inspiration - a creature (other than you) within 60 ft. that can hear you gains an inspiration die (1d6). For 10 minutes, the creature can add it to one ability check, attack roll, or saving throw. This can be added after seeing the roll, but before knowing the outcome.)
The gnome woman eyes Quin as he breaks in with a different take on their approach, mulling the option over in her head. "We'll have to pull back to the other side then." She points out, not really liking the notion of leaving the bard and Bess in the chamber with all those enemies alone. "Potentially out of range to avoid them seeing us entirely. You'd be on your own if something went wrong, at least until we could get to you. I can see the merits to trying trickery. There is a risk in rushing in but there's risk in this too." She meets his gaze, still unsure. "If Omnia can stealth and stay to watch your back...we can try it."
Okay, I guess we don't have to murder hobo them right off the bat. XD
"It's only a suggestion, and I'm a perfectly fine with to the way the group wants, just giving an extra option. I do definitely see your point, the plan does have some issues."
Nate experiences flashbacks of his childhood when he sees the girl in the cage and is numb to really taking in any plan other than rushing in and killing them all. He’s concerned nothing with the risk in this moment and is irrational.
Moments pass and he returns to a semi intelligent state.
”All I know is that all of them need to die. I’m good with whatever you all want to do. We just have to do it now because I saw her. Her eyes. She’s in bad shape....”
OOC - I totally forgot that Quinn was still in disguise and that is an awesome plan by the way!
Everyone go ahead and roll Initiative rolls, but they won't go into effect yet. The door is cracked open just a few inches, so you can't really attack yet. You all need to decide which way to proceed.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Turning her gaze on Nate as he breaks his long, tense silence, Idalie nods at his input. Conceding that they don't exactly have time for a long debate about this. Rolling her shoulders, the gnome settles on a compromise in her own mind. "Alright then," She looked to Quin. "Go. See if you can fool them but I think the rest of us should just stay right here. Ambush them if they come this way, rush in if you need help. One way or another, when we do go in we need to get to the girl right away. Omnia, you're the only one of us who can really pick locks. You and I should head straight for that cage."

Quinn listens as everyone each comes up with parts to his plan that he didn't even think of and is a little reassured. Quinn takes a deep breath.
"Ready."
Quinn cast Prestidigitation to make himself look dirty and slightly wounded. Quinn stumbles through the door and falls to his knees as he gets inside the door; panting heavily with his hand out in-front of him on the ground.
"T-they attacked us... they are outside the entrance of the cave. You have to come immediately, we can't hold them much longer! Krog... Krog has already been killed!!" Quinn cries with a look of exhaustion and anger on his face.
"I'll cover you." Idalie promises Omnia, meeting her gaze unflinchingly before turning to Quinn. The gnome flashing the bard a bright smile. "Maldor's blessing be upon you. Good luck. And watch out for that robed one. I don't like the looks of him." The man turned bugbear is gone within moments of her warning, dirtying himself up before stumbling through the door into the cavern beyond. Gesturing for everyone to take up positions to either side of the door so they'll be ready when the goblins emerge, Idalie flattens herself against the wall, bow knocked, body tense. Praying Quinn's plan works and their enemies come to them but more than ready to start firing off arrows if it doesn't.

Nate gives Quinn an approving nod as Quinn heads through the door. He then silently unsheathes his two daggers and joins Idalie and flattens himself against the wall awaiting the results.
(The two Goblins standing off to the side immediately come to attention as the Quinn Goblin acts out his scene. They seem concerned. Sarris looks enraged.)
"You two! Help them! Keep those meddling fools out of here or else I'll have your hides!"

Quinn nods as Idalie makes her very valid point.
"It's only a suggestion, and I'm a perfectly fine with to the way the group wants, just giving an extra option. I do definitely see your point, the plan does have some issues."
Quinn turns to the rest of the group.
"What do you guys think?"

Brom watched Quinn's proformance and was impressed, maybe this will work and if it didnt Brom was prepared to rush in and protect him.
