Xarroth's magic missiles fly to the last half-orc, taking him down for good. Falcon rides towards you and dismounts "you have my gratitude for your assistance in this hour of need. But those orcs are still trampling my home. Would you help me get rid of the rest of them?"
He seems ready to go back inside, but knows that he can't possibly take them all by himself. You saw six orcs run iniside following the thunder boar.
OOC: should you choose to help him, we can continue using the same initiative order, Lia would go next.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Lia moves forward until the giant boar is visible through the broken palisade and sends the flaming sphere against it again. Dex save: 7
Between fire and ice, the boar is in bad shape. It charges at the nearest building and smashes through the wall. You don't see the orcs, but smoke is starting to come up from where the stables used to be.
Initiative order: 20 Falcon (following Lia and Rhok) 19 Lia (7) 18 Rhok (13) 18 Six Orcs (inside the compound) 15 Thunder Boar (54, inside the compound) 10 Lothlién (18) 7 Xarroth (22)
Lothlién goes next.
OOC: Lia, Rhok and Falcon are some 50 feet away from the palisade, Lothlién and Xarroth are some 80 feet away.

Lothliénmumbles a "thanks" to Rhok, and moves towards Falcon and the foes. "Count me in" he says before he starts to cast another spell. His eyes shine in cold blue light for a second while the air around his right hand suddenly freezes in an Ice Knife. He tosses it at a speed beyond his physical capabilities in the direction of the Thunder Boar, hoping the shards will also damage some of the orcs.
Ice knife to hit:18; 1 piercing damage + each creature within 5 feet of it must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw (DC 14) or take 6 cold damage.

Snarling Xarrothresponds, flexing his claws as he speaks, "we will purge these mindless brutes from the realm...."
He will move to get into line of sight of the Thunder Boar. If successful he will cast a Fire Bolt at it, if not he'll use the Dash action to to the compound.

Xarroth moves forward, reaching the rest of the group 50 feet away from the palisade. His fire bolt hits the giant boar, doing little damage. Probably because its flank is covered in frost.
Falcon keeps going forward, stopping 20 feet away from the palisade and shoots at the thunder boar. Attack: 24 Damage: 24 Attack: 7 Damage: 15
The first arrow sinks deep in the boar's hide, almost disappearing inside. The beast roars in pain. It's looking on the brink of death.

Dex save against flaming sphere: 17
The flaming sphere hits the thunder boar once last time, putting it down for good. It collapses down half burned, taking half the building with him.
You don't see any of the orcs, but still hear them inside. The smoke from the stables gets thicker on the other end of the lodge.
Initiative order: 20 Falcon (ahead of the group, 20 feet from the palisade) 19 Lia (7) 18 Rhok (13) 18 Six Orcs (inside the compound) 10 Lothlién (18) 7 Xarroth (22)
Rhok moves forward until he's next to Falcon. The orcs are nowhere to be seen, just the trail of destruction that the thunder boar left in his rampage.
If he decides to move forward, he'll see that a dark smoke cloud rises from the stables. The thunder boar smashed a small building and the main building doors are smashed open. A trail of heavy boots leads to the main doors. From inside, a cacophony of voices and destruction makes him believe that the orcs are ransacking the place.

Lothliéngoes into the wrecked palisade. He then casts a Minor Illusion to as far ahead as he can, and use it to replicate his voice while shouting to the orcs:
"Surrender, now! Your commanders are dead, your siege monster is dead, YOU - HAVE - NO - CHANCE. Surrender now, and we will have mercy. Otherwise, every single one of you will suffer an slow, agonizing death!"
He then takes a deep breath and speaks quietly to Rhok and Falcon: "Let's hope that works."
"Quick thinking" remarks Falcon, as he takes position near Rhok and prepares his longbow to shoot at any orc that acts hostile.
After some conversation among the orcs inside, the door opens and a smallish one comes out. He takes a look at the thunder boar's corpse and despair covers his face "you killed Gorthok, you too strong for us, we surrender."
"I don't trust this, seems too easy" mutters Falcon still holding his bow in position. The old hunter is not shooting, but he really wants to.

Xarroth would quickly get to his feet and send three shimmering darts towards the remaining half-orc!
Magic Missile (1st Level)
Dart #1 - 4
Dart #2 - 2
Dart #3 - 2
Xarroth's magic missiles fly to the last half-orc, taking him down for good. Falcon rides towards you and dismounts "you have my gratitude for your assistance in this hour of need. But those orcs are still trampling my home. Would you help me get rid of the rest of them?"

OOC: should you choose to help him, we can continue using the same initiative order, Lia would go next.
"Of course." Lia says, moving to where she can see in through the logs. She rams her flaming sphere into the oversized boar again...
DC 13 dex save for half or take 6 fire.
She then sens a ray of frost at it as well...
To hit: 14 Damage: 6
"Absolutely..." Rhok responds, pats Lothliens shoulder, casts cure wounds and begins to head toward the fray inside the walls
Cure wounds healing to Loth: 5

OOC: that was a critical hit, roll another d10 for damage (not another 2d6, though, those are a different effect)
Dex save against ice knife: 12,
The ice cuts deep into the thunder boar's side. The explosion hits the structure around it.

Rhok silently nods to the others as the boar falls and heads to the broken palisade and peeks inside to see if he spots any Orcs
If he sees any, he'll loose a pair of bolts at the closest one
First hand crossbow shot: Attack: 10 Damage: 4
Colossus slayer damage if it was previously damaged: 3
Second shot: Attack: 11 Damage: 8

He then takes a deep breath and speaks quietly to Rhok and Falcon: "Let's hope that works."
OOC: I'm going to wait for the rest to post their actions before resolving that.
OOC: Xarroth is definitely going to wait and see how effective that was before taking action!
Rhok taking advantage of the pause, would move forward looking to get to a place of cover that he can snipe any Orcs that come out
Currently playing: Rhok Skatu - Another Dragon at Icespire Peak
Lia dismisses the flaming sphere, as there is enough fire here already. She is otherwise waiting to see if the orcs listen.
"Quick thinking" remarks Falcon, as he takes position near Rhok and prepares his longbow to shoot at any orc that acts hostile.
After some conversation among the orcs inside, the door opens and a smallish one comes out. He takes a look at the thunder boar's corpse and despair covers his face "you killed Gorthok, you too strong for us, we surrender."
"I don't trust this, seems too easy" mutters Falcon still holding his bow in position. The old hunter is not shooting, but he really wants to.
