Wash suggests that they should go and take care of the kobolds and drow in as stealthy a way as possible, saying "Balassar, are you happy to hang back 20 to 30 ft, then when Alton and I give the signal - casting some spells - you can run in and do what you do best."
With Balassar hanging back, Alton and Wash move quietly down the passage... until Wash bumps against the wall and stumbles. He manages to keep his balance, looks up... and sees the drow staring directly at him.

OOC: After the short rest he'll be fine, it's why I'm using it while y'all are searching. Plus it'll get him back his fighter stuff and breath weapon.

Okay, great. So Balassar is resting, what are Wash and Alton doing?
Alton is going to keep a lookout down towards the areas they haven't been through yet to see if anyone comes their way.
Perception: 22
Be excellent to each other, and roll for initiative dudes!
[Hambergler, no worries.]
Wash will have also taken a short rest after his quick walk (he just went to the doorway and back). He slumps down next to Balassar.
You complete the short rest without interruption.

What would you like to do?
Balassar just stands up looking at his companions "Where to now?" he asked

Alton nods, 'That sounds like as good of plan as any. I think we should focus on the drow first because they sound like the bigger threat."

Wash starts back towards the doorway as stealthily as possible (also taking dodge action like earlier if possible): 6 for stealth.
Alton follows behind Wash, also being stealthy.
Stealth: 24

[The "also" is being generous, I think Wash walked into the wall then knocked over a hat stand.]
Balassar just nods "I'm good with that."

Round One
Drow
Alton
Kobolds
Wash and Balassar
The drow walks forward, drawing a hand crossbow from his belt, and shoots at Wash:
Attack: 9 Damage: 7
The bolt flies past Wash into the room behind. Kill them, the drow says flatly in draconic.
Alton is up. You are currently unseen and have advantage on an attack.
From his position, Alton will poke out from around the corner and not seeing the drow will instead take aim at one of the kobolds.
Movement: None
Action: Fires a crossbow bolt at Kobold 1, Attack: 23 Damage: 8 Piercing
Be excellent to each other, and roll for initiative dudes!
