Male Goblin Rogue(Knife Master and Scout) lvl 5 Assassin lvl 1
Klepy will actually chill a good ways away sitting atop Chocobo watching. Since he has had BAD experiences fighting around water, he doesn't want to get near it. So he pulls out his crossbow and does his best.
The second troll also falls, but not in the water. Your ideas about preserving them to introduce into the breeding ponds might actually be a pretty good idea.
"Tark, get ready for other one to pop back out of water -- need to smack it hard enough to land on shore. Me and Bucko work on making very happy frog-eating troll."
Velag rides forward drawing his shortswords in order to make small carry-sized bits... and says to Bucko, "We need waterproof pouches."
It's a freebie to cut them down to the largest piece (Tark will want to smash the heads). As long as they're not immersed in water, they stay at a certain negative total until they're either burnt and destroyed all the way, or put back in water to regenerate.
You pack the 2 troll chunks, making sure the mounts can't get to them, and carry on.
The day goes by, the land gets wetter and harder to negotiate, and night falls. Of your mounts, only Fangz can see in the almost complete darkness in the overcast night. I'll assume Bucko takes first watch, then casts web shelter and you stay in there the rest of the night.
You know you're close. Who's got 2nd watch?
EDIT: There's also the small matter of Tark needing 67 hps. XD
At the last GenCon, a GM at a Pathfinder Society game I was playing at was using a house rule which I now use with regards to healing. His rule was that all out-of-combat-round healing did max. He justified this as when you are in combat, you don't have time to concentrate and ensure your spell is cast to the maximum effect / you drink all the contents of your potion / your wand is place on the optimum healing spot. I like this rule :)
Also, on a side note, Tark now sleeps on his banner to ensure faeries can't steal it.

I like it. OK.

Klepy sees nothing. The light doesn't reappear, and nothing else happens.
Later, on Klepy's watch,
Klepy
Spoiler:
...a surprising thing happens. A giant black scorpion appears out of the darkness and walks straight up to him. He hears a strange voice say Klepy... Klepy the goblin... I've been watching you...
I am the herald of Norgorber. Your friend Velag gets his power from one called "the gray man." I have something for you, from him. All he asks is your loyalty. In return, you will have power yet unknown to goblinkind. You can be his agent, and shinies will surely come to you more easily than ever before.
The scorpion transforms before your eyes, becoming a darkly armored humanoid with a scorpion-like tail waving behind him. It is masked, and holds its hands before you. Serve Norgorber. He will grant you power to wreak his vengeance on his enemies. The stealth of the Gray Man, the murder of Father Skinsaw, the knowledge of the Reaper, and the poison of Blackfingers will all be yours to command.
The armored herald turns to Velag. Norgorber's strength among the goblins has never been great. He is pleased with your devotion, Velag, and promises you great power in his name. Teach this one true observance, and the Gray Man will raise the Licktoads to wealth and prominence they've never known before. You are chosen of Norgorber, and he will give you a small taste of the glory that is yet to come.
Say yes, Klepy, and feel the power of the Black Scorpion grow within you.
The strange being disappears in a cloud of toxic, black smoke. You all awaken to find that you are 7th level.

You also got a nifty minor feat:
Combat Distraction
Anyone who attacks you while you act like a lunatic exposes
themselves to brutal counterattacks from your allies.
Prerequisite: Goblin, Acrobatics 1 rank, Escape Artist
1 rank.
Benefit: As a full-round action, you can choose to
do something that seems to serve no useful purpose.
Example actions could include laughing at another
creature’s misfortune, rooting in your pockets for a
snack, bending over to pick up what looks like a weird
bug, or trying to fly into the air by flapping your arms
like a sea gull.Although you’re acting like a lunatic, your
unpredictable actions are distracting. Any creature other
than a goblin within 5 feet of you takes a –2 penalty on
Perception checks and concentration checks for as long
as you continue to be a distraction and remain in range.
This penalty stacks with other goblins performing
combat distractions, as long as you’re both adjacent to
the distracted target.
This is a gift from Norgorber. He likes that you're a moron, and thinks it should benefit you sometimes.
Velag
Spoiler:
You get a minor feat, too, as a gift from your god. Extra orisons.
Not awesome, but it can't hurt. Norgorber likes you.
Velag smiles wickedly at the Scorpiman's praise. Great power... Like that...
He looks at Klepy, then back at the messenger, and says, "A most challenging labour, as I have never known this one to learn... But I will do as you ask..."
