Gartokkar's enchanting voice is cut short as Dawnbringer's light cleaves the darkness like ... a sword. Sunlight reflects off the lizardman's green scales and glints from his dark eyes as he shoots across the tunnel like a bolt of lightning and cuts down one of the hapless dwarves standing in the tunnel ahead. Spinning through the dead priest's space, Sekkar slashes at Gartokkar himself, opening a nasty wound in the head-priest's back and eliciting a deep cry of pain.
Zeno's turn

How does a red dragon blow out the candles on its birthday cake?
Zeno hears a grunt of pain from his target who is attempting to hide in the darkness, and skulks away without a sound, using the magic of the drow cloak against the drow themselves.
The two Stone Guard dwarves flinch at the light, and decide to attempt to neutralize the source instead of apprehending their original targets. They charge toward Sekkar and stab at him with their 'King's Knives'.
Cut the head off first is what Kaylyn is thinking as she fires 2 blasts of Eldritch force energy at Gartokkar.
"We are not going back!" She shouts
Attack: 12 Damage: 14
Attack: 10 Damage: 13
As a bonus action she calls to Sekkar "Be strengthened friend!" as she bestows Bardic Inspiration on him.
As a bonus action, a creature (other than yourself) 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 brilliant light shining out from Dawnbringer even dazzles Kaylyn, and her magic blasts at Gartokkar fly wide, but Sekkar is bolstered by her words of encouragement. While Pax stands somewhat confused at the sudden commotion, the priests surrounding the group start chanting spells, coming to the aid of their beleagured leader. Gartokkar's spell causes Sekkar to feel his muscles being restricted. One priest rushes in and attempts to touch Kaylyn with hands of inky blackness. A glowing mace suddenly appears beside Sekkar and takes a swipe at him. And two pillars of flame descend seemingly out of the rock above and surround the lizardman.
Sekkar: Make a DC 13 WIS save or be paralyzed Sekkar/Kaylyn/Pax: Make a DC 12 CHA save against Bane Sekkar: Make a DC 12 DEX save or take 4 radiant damage Sekkar: Make another DC 12 DEX save or take 7 radiant damage
Pax, surprised, but hearing strange commotions all around her casts a spell on herself. (I believe when surprised, you can still act, just not against anyone who surprised you...)
(She casts Armor of Agathys on herself at 2nd level, triggering her arcane ward.) does nothing.
"If you're surprised, you can't move or take an action on your first turn of the combat, and you can't take a reaction until that turn ends. A member of a group can be surprised even if the other members aren't."

At the rear of the action, Kastix lurks unseen in the darkness. He can see the drow moving off to the left, oblivious to his presence. They begin calling out to the other drow off to the right, although Kastix can't interpret their words. Zeno can however, and recognises they are communicating in their dialect of Elvish, coordinating the casting of spells that will illuminate the unseen assailant that shot at their lieutenant. The next moment Zeno sees the shimmer around him and attempts to avoid the magic ripples from touching him.

Zeno: Make a DC 11 DEX save to avoid being outlined in a violet glow that sheds dim light in a 10' radius. (Three separate spells were cast to try to catch Zeno in a wider area, but only one spell includes his location, so only one save. Kastix is outside all the casting zones, so no save required.

Zeno fires off another shot from the darkness. (Targeting the drow elite if I can see him with passive Perception 15, if not then the drow near Kastix)
Attack: 29 Damage: 12

Zeno then moves toward Kastix, staying in the dark and moving between rocks in the tunnel, hood still up.
Stealth: 13
(specifically want to be on the row between drow 9 and drow elite, 4 spaces to the right of the drow.)
Zeno dodges the magical waves of purple light by bending and twisting, and none of them touch him. He can see the four drow, and even though Zeno can tell that their leader has obvious skills at hiding, the half-elf follows the dark-elf's movements with his crossbow and manages to draw another cry of pain and another elvish curse-word. The drow leader appears now to be clutching his body as if to staunch the bleeding.
