By the time the second arrow flew towards the cart, Dathyra had to act. For now, Nyla was protected by the wagon, but how long before they got lucky? She took careful aim at Gessup, her mind already focusing on the magical gifts Lathander had blessed her with. She concentrated on those she needed to protect.
"Naur!" she shouted, commanding a burst of flames to rush towards the hunter.

To her credit, Phyllis didn't flinch as the arrows flew to seek the blood of the monster that she wasn't sure if she caught the name of. Monster seemed to fit just fine from what she had witnessed.

After casting, Phyllis darts off further from the path (012), wanting to put as much space she can between herself and her allies. It would be absolutely disheartening to accidentally get them caught up in any nasty spells she may use next.
Chaos erupts with the call for vengeance. "She killed my Pa." The bolts and the spells start flying as violence escalates.
Daryl and Gessup get their shots off first but Daryl rushes his effort and Gessup is single-mindedly firing at the prone and covered figure of Nyla to no avail each time.
Sen watches Daryl's shot goes wide and says "you're first mate" and nails him in the side with a bolt.
Merric moves from the cover of Phyllis to the cover of Sen and also takes a shot at Daryl but barely misses due to the fact that he spooked Sen a little by firing from underneath and between his legs.
Harivaldr advances on Gessup but engages in some bardic trickery and whispers something magic and dangerous to Mattis who momentarily moves back in fear. Mattis recovers a moment later and changes his target from Sen to Harivaldr. Maybe he hadn't fully shaken the whispers, but his bolt grazes through the bards beard.
Ethan sees that his other brother Daryl has become a target now and retaliates against Sen. His shot goes wide and Sen just stands there, untouchable.
Dathyra realizes that Gessup is fixed on his target, moves to get a better angle. She calls for the divine fire of Lathander and blasts him.
Durven takes the only clear shot he sees and puts a second bolt into Daryl.
Phyllis realizes it is the same old tune, "You shot my Pa!" She doesn't have an opinion either way except to get out of the line of fire. She moves out of the way after she sends a psychic attack his way. He reels in pain as he can feel nails through his skull.
Nyla and Lara stay prone under the wagon and Lara reaches out and casts something protective over her.

Gessup yells in frustration. His vengeance is so close but he can't get to it yet. The one who shot fire at him is in his way. He drops his crossbow and charges up to Dathyra with his short sword.attack 8His wild swing is easily avoided by the nimble elf.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Seeing Gessup run up to Dathyra to engage her in melee, Merric sees a chance to take advantage of his frustrated rage. Dropping his bow, his grins at Sen and says "I bees right backs for that..." Pulling his short sword, he dashes to Gessup's unguarded flank and plunges his short sword into the unarmored joint near his groin, hoping to hit the critical artery in the thigh.
Attack: 21 Damage: 23
Feeling the edge strike true, he nimbly bounces away out of reach before Gessup can take the opportunity to get a swing at him. Making his way back to Sen's guard, he moves behind to get some cover (M4?) near where he dropped his bow.
Some may have noticed his combat footwork seemed very similar to his previous display of dancing at the Dew Drop Inn, or in other words, what Phyllis once described as "an errating and frantic attack and lapse of sanity that absolutely mortified her."
Since it was more than 25' (I think) to move to attack Gessup and make it back to cover behind Sen (and where his bow was), I used "Dash" as a bonus action, attacked, and "Fancy Footwork" prevents him from taking an AoO as I leave his reach.
Sen says to Daryl, "Where do you think you're going?" Sen reloads another bolt and aims it at his attacker, Daryl. Like a sentinel, Sen stands in the open launching bolts at the attackers. At this point, Sen if feeling pretty untouchable.
Having seen Gessup run up to swing at Dathyra (and Merric's dancing advance and disengage) Harivaldr will step up to Gessup and swing his longsword with both hands at the enraged boy.

Mattisthinks that Sen must have some sort of charm against missiles. Everything fired at the guy has missed. He rushes up 30ft and just makes it to Sen and goes for a wide looping strike with his short sword. attack13but he's not in the best of shape and the sprint took a little bit out of his swing.
Ethan shoots a bolt at Harivaldr as he came up to engage Gessup in melee along with Dathyra. attack 14but there seem to be too many people in that area and t is affecting his aim.
Dathyra's instincts went into survival mode the minute she saw Gessup drop his weapon and head straight for her. Thankfully, he was slower and more enraged, meaning his aim was a little off. She quickly sidestepped him, avoiding the impact. She also had a feeling that Merric and Harivaldr helped make that easier. Both managed to slow his momentum and get him off track. Having an advantage in numbers helped. Six people against four made these kinds of maneuvers possible. She watched Merric disentangle from Gessup in a peculiar way before readying another fire spell.

Not a turn, but reacting to actions. Wak, you called it. Magic users are "squishy."
She hadn't seen it coming. With such a direct hit from a closer distance, Dathyra was sure she had done some serious damage to Gessup, perhaps enough to get him to back off a little. Surely after feeling that kind of pain, a man would take a step back and avoid the thing trying to burn him. But that was not what had happened at all. He started to fall, trying to put out the flames before they caused serious enough burns, and then stood back up just as quickly as he went down. She wasn't expecting this and didn't have time to react. Nor was she ready when his sword pierced her side, just under the leather armor. It wasn't deep enough or in the right place to hit anything vital. Her training in healing at least taught her that much. But if she bled out...that could be a problem. She wanted to stay strong, but she couldn't help crying out as she started to crumple.

Merric, seeing two of the bounty hunters both distracted in combat with Sen and Dathyra, split his attention between the two. Hesitating momentarily, his indecisiveness ended when a cry from Dathyra drew his attention just in time to see the bounty hunter pulling a bloody sword from her gut. Rushing immediately to her aid, Merric charged her assailant with a fierce focus and shrill cry of anger and swung his short, but razor sharp sword at his exposed flank.
Attack: 14 Damage: 20
The bounty hunter's armor [most likely] deflecting his initial sword attack, Merric pulled his dagger using his off hand and attempted to drive the sharp tip into his enemy with a backhand swing...
