Some how the lithe drow woman manages to dodge blades from both Raithe and Cadence. Having witnessed her companions attempting to subdue the woman and miss Velda attempts to grapple the woman long enough for her companions to subdue her.
Velda strength check: 8 vs drow dex escape: 19
The woman proves to be to nimble for even Velda’s strength to be able to pin down as she evades her grasp quite easily.
Nova’s first strike with the flat of her blade is dodged easily by Vyerith, though it turned out to be a feint as she ducked right into a waiting pommel. She rubs her head for a moment where the strike landed.
Nova | Vyerith | Raithe | Cadence | Velda
It’s at this juncture that the drow woman realizes she can’t escape unless she retaliates against one of the four of you. And the person that just bopped her on the head is gonna get it. Two quick fists come flying towards Nova.
Attack: 17 Damage: 6
Attack: 20 Damage: 10
(Wow. Okay. Marked two death save fails from the crit hit while unconscious)
The first strike catches Nova in the temple and drops her like a sack of potatoes. The drow then kicks the downed elf for good measure and bolts south.
Nova | Vyerith | Raithe | Cadence | Velda
Raithe, Cadnence and Velda are up and get attacks of opportunity.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Velda swings at the drow as it moves past bellowing angrily at Nova having fallen.
Attack: 15 Damage: 13
Superiority die to trip: 7
Str ST: 1 vs dc13
Velda’s quick thinking and quick reflexes catches the drow just right so that she falls to the ground hits her head hard on the stone floor and falls unconscious (since everyone was trying to do non-lethal damage earlier. Raithe and Cadence both get an action before Nova needs to roll a death save!)

Cadence looks around, the battle over. She uses her magic to clean her blade and sheathes it. Then she glances down at Nova.
"Oh dear, she's hurt. Maybe a potion, i'll give her a squirt."
She pours a healing potion into Nova's mouth, granting her 7 HP's of healing.
Then she walks over and searches the bodies in a rather matter of fact way. Once done, she pulls her rope out and uses it to bind up the unconscious drow, and gag her.
Once all that's done, she stands up and smiles a mischievous smile and does a little twirl about the room.

What's the difference between a Wizard and a Sorcerer? Class.
Nova gurgles, then groans as she'd bring a hand to her face. "I guess Punch beats Brain Freeze..." She'd mutter lowly to herself as her consciousness would come back. Slices of memory of Raithe coming to her aid and Cadence's potion administration were hazy, like dreams slipping away when you wake up. Slowly, she'd blink her eyes. Should anyone still be looking over her, she'd smile an infectiously warm smile, happy to see a friend. "Hi!" The druid would lay there for a moment, grinning her goofy grin of appreciation. Eventually she'd reach her hand out to ask for help up.
"So what now?" Nova would tilt her head. "Bring her to the sheriff too?"
Cadence moves about the room. She cocks her head once in a while, as if hearing a sound that nobody else can hear. Then she says, "Alright, let's go check out the rest of this place! You guys ready to keep pace?"
Assuming they've stabilized people, tied up the prisoners, and removed any of the weapons sitting around the room, or on the enemies bodies, that can be used to escape, she walks out of the room in an exaggerated sneaking form, taking large tippy toe steps.

Searching the bodies reveals...
7 silver pieces in a pouch on the king of the cragmaw tribe and 16 copper pieces in one of the goblins pockets. They of course have their weapons and armor but nothing else noteworthy. Was Cadence also going to search the unconscious drow woman after she was tied up and gagged? Please give me a sleight of hand to determine how secure the knots are.
Gundren is alive and breathing. You do notice a rather nasty looking bruise/lump starting to form on the back of his head. Presumably from when Grol dropped him to the stone floor. Are you wanting to wake him up? Or leave him here with the tied up drow woman and corpses that have had their weapons removed from them?
Cadence doesn't have any way to wake Gundren and is worried about more stuff in the castle, so points for Raithe to leave the room. Once they get outside, she points through the rubble straight across to a room they haven't gotten to yet.

It was probably safer to keep Gundren knocked out for now. Nova would stay behind to keep an eye on the prisoner and Gundren while Cadence and Raithe scouted the castle.
This tower has almost completely collapsed, although the ground floor still has a little open space. Rotting crates and ancient barrels show that provisions were once stored here. A heavy curtain blocks a crumbling area to the south, and to the north, a short passage through the rubble ends before a screen of canvas. It seems this is a way in and out of the castle and the drow was attempting to flee and escape the battle.

Your turn Nova!
With furrowed brows, Nova would try to follow up Velda's attempt to grapple the nimble woman with the butt end of her blades again.
Attack: 17 Damage: 8
BA: 23 Damage: 1

Raithe makes a surprised-scream noise and drops to her knees over Nova and tries to stabilize her wounds. "Heal her!" she shouts to the others.
Medicine: 20
Nova is stable but unconscious at 1 for 3 hours or until she receives magical healing/potion. (That’s 1 hp)
Cadence looks around, the battle over. She uses her magic to clean her blade and sheathes it. Then she glances down at Nova.
"Oh dear, she's hurt. Maybe a potion, i'll give her a squirt."

"If you are okay, we should probably see if Gundren is okay!" Raithe says as things stabilize...
Nova would nod. She'd check on Gundren.

Cadence moves about the room. She cocks her head once in a while, as if hearing a sound that nobody else can hear. Then she says, "Alright, let's go check out the rest of this place! You guys ready to keep pace?"

Raithe is game to keep going once Gundren's safe. She will scout ahead...
Stealth: 22
Perception: 9
Again, assuming all was well and safe with Gundren, Nova would follow the others.
If there was no way to do so, she’d turn her focus on preparing Gundren to return to Phandalin and take him herself.

Raithe would help with the ropes, or, if allowed, tie them herself, with help, prior to scouting.
Sleight of hand: 15
She's fine with waking Gundren, but she doesn't have the ability to do that.
Cadence doesn't have any way to wake Gundren and is worried about more stuff in the castle, so points for Raithe to leave the room. Once they get outside, she points through the rubble straight across to a room they haven't gotten to yet.
