“How should we proceed up, one at a time? Gilgin should you go first? Trek, do you know where this creature may be hiding? We don’t want to startle it, we must be quiet, it must feel that it is going to have a nice meal from an unsuspecting wanderer.”

A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
„Well i don‘t fancy falling, so i will simply take the lift. Scorb and Grek can go first together and secure the top. And then i can go with the gnome, Nyx, was it?“ Trex replies to you.
Kravek will respond to Trex while looking at Gilgin. I will go on the 2nd trip up.Heeding Gilgins words and not wanting to let Nyx get up there with 3 kobolds by herself. Nyx and Trex can follow us.
Kravek will keep an eye on the kobolds, to see if they are talking amongst each other or exchanging glances. It could be nothing but perhaps Gilgin was right and they did want to ambush Nyx up there.
Perception to spot anything suspicious with the kobolds 15
Just to clarify: Scorb/Grek, Kravek, Gilgin, Trex/Nyx, Hifu, James, in that order?
The Kobolds are uncomfortable to go first. Especially Scorb is afraid, but they do as their leader says. Trex also doesn‘t want to be the first up there, but he seams to think that never being alone is the good defence against the brain. Others then that he doesn‘t care much about the order. Scorb and Grek don‘t talk much, and if they do they speak Draconic. Trex ignores them most of the time and carefully scanes the cave ceilings.
If you speak Draconic or if you roll a 15 insight check:
Scorb seams to describe the brain creature and the attack that he saw to Grek, he’s afraid of the monster. Grek seams to retell the tale of Grek the mighty who bravely fought against you guys and barely lost, he makes it sound like a great battle between equally mighty warriors.
Hifu says to Grek in Dragon "You are full of shit Grek. Kravek put the squeeze on you and showed you who is boss. Keep focused, look out for that creature and stop gabbing."

Nyx can't really help with changing appearances. She follows the lead of others for now, but keeps scanning the upper parts of the areas they are in. She's pretty sure that she can see further in here than most others.
Hifu says to Grek in Dragon "You are full of shit Grek. Kravek put the squeeze on you and showed you who is boss. Keep focused, look out for that creature and stop gabbing."
Grek is embarrassed and surprised and mumbles something back, but it is so quite and unclear that you don‘t understand it.
One by one (or two), you make it up to the first lvl. Trex asks Scorb how far he got with his job, before the brain interrupted him. Scorb replies that they only got started and that the walkway is still stable.
„As a defensiv measure Scorp and Thwip were supposed to Cut a trapdoor into the walkway, but the monster interrupted them before they could make any meaningful progress.„
“Nyx can you sneak up and have a look in that chamber to the west? We need to attack as one as soon as we know where it is and block its escape route.”

You are here more or less:
Just ignore the Token for now, the bucket lift is next to the Gilgin and James tokens.

Gilgin, still uttering his prayers as guidance to Kravek pipes up. ”Yeah, I’ll go after Kravek - then James and Hifu you can follow the little’uns
Gilgin Hardhammer - Mountain Dwarf Cleric (Forge Domain) - Icewind Dale
Petal - Forest Gnome Druid (Circle of the Land - Forest) - Unsung Heroes of Embera
James nods agreement, helping to pull the winch, to get the others up to level 1 of the mine.

Hifu helps with the winch. He turns to James "They are going to find a stinky surprise at the top! I hope this plan works.."
Hifu keeps his focus on the kobolds watching for any trickery and looking out for the brain creature.
Perception : 3

Order looks right.

"What were you doing to the walkway, Trek?" Hifu asks. He readies his javelin and wishes that we had taken a nap before this hunt.

James again looks off to an empty spot, like he is looking at or listening to someone, but there is nothing there.
And again he nods his head, before looking around, looking out for the creature.
"How do we want to do this? Do we think the creature will be in the main shaft area, or will it have moved further towards the entrance?"

Map:
You are in the south east corner around the lift at the moment.
Nyx cast Armor of Agathys upon entering, which might or might not be expired. If it's still active then she offers to scout up front.
“Nyx can you sneak up and have a look in that chamber to the west? We need to attack as one as soon as we know where it is and block its escape route.”

Nyx says, "Sure."
Stealth check (in rocky terrain, right?): 17 (another roll in case the advantage applies: 8)
I didn‘t keep track so i assume you still had it, but You need to take a short rest to recover your spell slot.
Also roll a perception check if you look for the monster.
Nyx perception check: 5
