With Ramious help Bernard demonstrated top notch bouldering and pretty fast both got behind the gaping orc, puzzled by sudden appearance of completely unaware humans. All what was left is to drop down behind the enemy lines.
Meanwile, orc were trying to make heads and tails of Leon's and Alyssa's show. Judging by the looks, the meaning of the words Leon was using, escaped orc's minds completely. Most likely, both were still processing the very presence of the random humanoids in this part of the mountains.
"Humans." Finally came to conclusion one of them. "Thark, I see humans. Do you see humans?" "I do see humans, Wark," no less thoughtfully answered Thark, "I think they are lost. And they have food. I think we take it."
Once that intellectual exchange was finished, both orcs forgot about their post and run toward Leon and Alyssa with a clear intention to "take" whatever they can.

With the orc's highly intellectual exchange and taking of the 'bait'....Ramious will snap out of his reverie, and shrugs, well.....whatever...it worked.
He leaps from his perch and descends attempting to slam into the trailing orc with his sword.
Depends how close to the place where guards were standing you planned to land. Orcs are about 20ft from that position by now, and Leon can attack in melee if he wants to do so.
Alyssa would narrow her eyes to concentrate on the orcs march towards them. When she feels as though she's got the pace of their steps, she'd time stomping her foot to summon a piece of earth to suddenly jut from the ground in front of them, just enough to hopefully cause them to trip over their own feet. Not like that's ever happened to her before...
Casting: Mold Earth She'll send Hue out to distract them to look up.
Wark (or was it Thark?) did not live long enough to reach that tasty food in the hands of puny humans - Bernard's arrow killed him so fast, he probably did not even noticed.
Thark (or Wark?) made a few more steps, slowing at the suddenly very squishy patch on the road, that allowed Ramious to catch up and make a blow that propelled big fellow (almost dead) forward into the welcoming hands of Leon.
Indeed, Leon welcomed disoriented fella with all his might - what was left of the orc fell to the ground. Whatever orcs were guarding now was open to the group.
Moving eastward from the "orc's" ledge, the trail turns south and rises steeply through a cleft in the rock toward a grand entrance. Shallow steps lead up through a steep fissure to the south and turn east into the mountainside. Here, a broad entrance way has been carved out of the stone. Marble steps cracked with age and veined with green moss lead up to a strong double door of carved stone, eight feet wide and almost ten feet tall. Arrow slits high on the north and south walls command this area. If there was an ancient dwarven strongpoint - it seems you found it!
"Best not be forgetting the ears." Leon says as he cleans off his blade. He turns to Ramious then. "Seems these material realm folk do enjoy such things so much they can be distracted by a couple pieces of food." He shrugs. "I will have to add this to the things I am learning about these people's culture."
Ramious eyes the arrow slits suspiciously. He flaps up to the north arrow slit, sticking a hand through to he can grab on and rest, perched against the wall, and glares into the darkness beyond.

Darkness glared back with three pairs of of big (thanks for surprise visit) eyes, belonging to the three big orcs. The staring contests lasted for a few moments, but soon one run away, yelling something (he did not sound scared) while two others raised their bows.
"Damned! Archers!!" he shouts as he leaps from the wall and swoops towards the entrance hall where the arrow slits won't have a view of him, yelling at the group to follow.

After the quick dispatch of the orcs, Bernard joins up with the others. This time, he keeps his bow out and and arrow in hand just in case. As the finally laid eyes upon the strong hold, he stopped for a moment and just started at it, taking in the site. That is until Ramious's warning of archers rang though. Snapping out of, his eyes went up towards the source of the voice and then to the arrow slits. Looking about, he speeds towards the forward most cover he can get too.

Leon will rush towards the door to the fortress. He would use misty step to bypass as much of the area in front of the arrow slits as possible. When he gets to the door he will hit it full-force with his shoulder, trying to break it open if possible.
Ahhh, realizing there were arrow slits all the way along, Ramious drops to the ground under the arrow slit, and casts Silent Image, a wall of stone wraps around the outside of the far arrow slit, five feet away from the wall itself, blocking their view of the hallway. Should stop them long enough to see what the group is trying to do....thinks Ramious. Seeing Leon attempting to push the door, Ramious will, next turn, rush over and slam at the door along with him, though as he hits the door and his breath explodes from his body, he says to Leon, "Charging the front gates...heroic or suicidal....we'll find out in a minute I guess......"

How far away is Bugs and would he need any checks or anything to get to melee range or are they within dart or bow range.

Bernard will pull out his bow and an arrow. He will draw it back to his ear and take aim and fire.
Ooc: assuming he has site and is within 600 feet he can take a shot. Will take the -5 attack for +10 damage.
