Pointing to his ears and then in the direction the crying is coming from, Mal draws his shortbow, nocks an arrow, and starts quietly moving about 15 feet to the right of the main group.
Krikoris flinches slightly at the noise he makes and whispers to the group, "Sorry, I don't usually have to sneak into places. Should we announce our presence? Try to scare them?"
Turning toward Kikoris, Jupp bows and holds one of his arms out as if inviting someone to dance while drawing his weapon with his other "Would you care to join me on a bloody walce"
Although Mal and Khutulun move around silently anticlockwise around the edge of the settlement, the bandits definitely know that the group is there...especially with Uce being even less stealthy than Krikoris as he comes to a halt.
" Show yourselves or we'll fill you with arrows!", calls out a gruff voice in the main groups direction.
It is difficult to make out much through the thick trees but there seem to be a number of rough structures about 30m or so ahead in a circular arrangement around a campfire and cleared ground.
Mal and Khutulun:
There look to be about 20 or so rough looking men mainly Merubat and Lokanan the majority of them are rising and snatching up shortbows, some are moving towards the buildings carrying rough iron handaxes.
Krikoris resorts to his previous habits and uses his magic to shape the flames of the fire into dragon forms lunging out at the bandits as he yells out to them, first in draconic, then repeating in common, "Surrender you fools! Before the dragon's flames devour you!"
Jupp curses quietly then offers a quick prayer to his deity before following and casts sheild of faith on himeself,staying close to Krikoris so he dosn't become a sole target
Khutulun and Malambing manage to approach to within 30' of the building the crying sounds are coming from.
As flames and draconic shapes issue through the foliage and into the clearing the bandits brace themselves and nock arrows calling out for some one called "Agung". They are obviously taken by suprise by the magical display and scamble to prepare themselves....though many of them look confused by Krikoris words they manage to link 'flame' and the firey display easily enough.

Roll Initiative, if your higher than the bandits ( which looking at that you will be) post your actions.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Mal's initiative: 5
On his turn, Mal will run up to the building where the crying sounds are from, and he'll check the door - if it appears to be locked, he'll swap out his shortbow for his thieves' tools, and tell Khutulun "Cover me!"

Khutulun quietly moves to the right of the group, also about 15 feet and finds a tree or bush if possible to help obscure her.

Krikoris flinches slightly at the noise he makes and whispers to the group, "Sorry, I don't usually have to sneak into places. Should we announce our presence? Try to scare them?"
Mal nods, pretty sure that if Krikoris draws the bandits' attention, he can use that to his advantage.
Turning toward Kikoris, Jupp bows and holds one of his arms out as if inviting someone to dance while drawing his weapon with his other "Would you care to join me on a bloody walce"

Uce stands back, waiting for the signal from the others.
I have an intelligence of six, I know what I'm doing.
Whispering to Khutulun, Mal says "That's a lot of bandits, po. Should we try sneaking around the back of a building?"
Khutulun gives the thumbs up and continues to flank around as quietly as possible while remaining hidden.

Mal would definitely advance toward the crying sounds, skirting around the tree line and trying his best to stay hidden.
(the layout helped, thank you!)
Uce would follow Mal toward the crying sounds.
