Ignoring the orc (O5) that Findalsip has been concentrating on, Linar tries to coup de grace an unconscious orc.

Could he move here, then decide to go further or shoot his bow?

Basically want to cautiously approach the corner, and not become a huge target.

As he pokes around the corner, he will take a shot if he seems an enemy.

Katten rushes through the middle of the battle, jumping over dead bodies and taking a running shot at the departing O2.

Long Bow (Thaco 16) [1d20]=4 dmg [1d6]=2
Miss sadly.

Not sure with the movement if she gets her second attack, if she does.

Having throw two stones at the prone orc, Findalsip will reach for his rope in his pack to tie up the 2nd prone orc.

Dargon and Linar execute two of the unconscious orcs while Fin ties up the badly injured one. Jordek, unable to see, stays near those dealing with the unconscious orcs

Nocturno and Katten carefully edge around the corner and take shots at the orc archers, who seem to have taken up defensive positions in the natural irregularities of the cave. Arrows and bolts fly on both sides, but only Nocturno lands a glancing blow against one of the orcs.

Could Linar scuttle across in a southward-sweeping arc to end just south of the rock column that is about 25' east and 5' south of his current position?
(The main idea here is to ensure there isn't a foe lurking at our backs. If there's a foe lurking there then it's a combat continuation otherwise he wil likely cast a curative.)

Nocturno will move out with his bow drawn. If there are any close by he will stow that and draw his long sword instead.

Move Shoot, then move back to cover if there is none within melee.
Move draw swing if there are.

Findalsip starts looting the now tied up orc, removing all objects from its person so as remove any offensive or defensive items from it.

Bull and Linar move quickly around the corner, taking cover behind the rock formations. Fin checks the now tied orc and finds a few coins and a knife which the orc might have been able to use to free himself once awake. Jordek fumbles through the darkness to stand near Fin. Jeeze, I don't know how you guys see anyghing in here…

Nocturno steps forward, drawing his longsword. Just around the first corner he confronts the Halberd wielding orc lurking in wait! The two exchange blows but none meet flesh. Bolts and arrows fly towards the Ranger and Fighter-Cleric, but nond make contact. Katten's first shot misses, but the second badly injures one of the orc archers taking cover…

FIndalsip replies to Jordek " It is best if you can't see in here to not move far. You could wind up lost or worse. Once the talls finish their ill-though actions we can try to provide some light for you. Right now wouldn't be a good time to cast a light spell. I'm going to wait until this orc comes around and then try to pull out information from him. If he dies afterwards, oh well. I mean it is an orc and the only thing they are good for is dying."
