This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
(oops, forgot about bless. 3, but I thought advantage would be gone after she noticed us. If we didn't lose advantage, here is that roll for the second attack, cause I am sure a 24 hits???? I hope??? 8. Sorry to potentially make you retcon, JC. I am the most forgetful person on earth.)

(OOC - no worries - that's why I asked - figured we need all the help we can with this fight - and AFAIK if its a surprise round - everyone gets to attack with advantage the first round - not trying to be a pain either - hopefully JcAndD doesn't hate me for trying to backseat DM hehe)
((If she is surprised all the attacks have advantage. The point is, all our moves surprised her? I think we have to roll everyone for Hide/Stealth and then if we roll enough we have advantage, your Elwarith did a nice roll so I have no doubt for him, maybe for the rest of us))
(I am used to the raw where everyone rolls initiative, and once the surprised creature gets their 'turn where they do nothing' they stop being surprised and advantage stops for everyone afterward.)

After Davmorn blesses him, the Revenant incises his pale skin of the palm to imbue the Sunsword with his blood. ((-8 HP, Crimson Rite, +1d6 radiant damage).
He then looks for the break in the wall Elwarith mentioned, he tries to Hide ((Stealth: 16)) within the shadows of the hut to surprise the Witch from the opposite side of the Accurate. When he spots her, the Revenant whispers the Blood Curse of the Marked ((rite damage is doubled))....and attacks with his blade..

(OOC - just a thought - but shouldn't both her attacks be at advantage and the + 1d4 from bless? or did I misinterpret how that worked?)
Ru is correct. The advantage was only on Elwarith’s attack because she didn’t know you were here. If you wanted to retain advantage, you could Hide instead of attacking, then attack next turn. The surprise does not itself confer advantage, being unseen does. “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.” Sorry if I didn’t make that clear haha

(OOC- no worries - I was under the impression that because we were able to approach the hut unnoticed that we would get a surprise round - I stand corrected and will shut up now :P )
Haha, no, no, it’s fine. Technically, she is surprised, and does not get to act this round. So that’s a plus. You scouting out the area without her being noticed has put her at a serious disadvantage, good job! Now to total all the damage thus far
62+23+35= 120. Huh, alright cool.
So, as Adanmar leaps past Viorela, sunsword drawn, he brings down his radiant blade over her. She brings up her arm to guard, but the sunsword goes through it as the arm falls to the ground. He brings a second swing around at her him and completely cleaves her in two. She dies before her body even hits the ground as her blood pools and drips into the floor. You have killed Baba Lysaga.

Also, yes that is what I normally do, I just for some reason forgot that Initiative was first this time around haha. Had gotten the two surprise editions mixed. No big deal though, works just as well haha.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The mists seem really aggravated, kinda swirly. Weird. It’s a bit harder to see than it was before. As you take in the sights, the ground begins shaking, like something big is going on.
Meanwhile, inside, Viorela and Adanmar stand over the corpse of Baba Lysaga, when suddenly, two roots shatter through the windows.
Attack: 15 Damage: 33 bludgeoning against Viorela
Attack: 19 Damage: 29 bludgeoning against Adanmar
Both Adanmar and Viorela are forcibly pulled out of the building and thrown into the swamp. However, Adanmar is hurled toward Elwarith, Attack: 30 Damage: 16 bludgeoning damage against Elwarith. Adanmar does not take the damage from landing on Elwarith.
Before you, you now see the Dancing Hut of Baba Lysaga standing tall on thick, creeping roots. The misty image of Baba Lysaga’s face hovers in front of the door, cackling like mad as the pale green glow of the seed beats from the inside like a heart.

(roll initiative again? Ahh maybe I will do better! 7. Also, I am very mad at that hut...)

((yep but look at the crit roll for damage :D ))
One thing Adanmar, it is an action to Hide, you wouldn’t be able to attack. Would you like to forgo hiding to attack her?

Elwarith squints his eyes suspiciously and looks around the hut.....
"That seemed easier than expected......perhaps it is a trap..."
