Freire finds nothing sepecial about the trap door.
Also the man laying on the floor where the girl was crying, is Lubor. He is very much dead.

"Oh no ... Lubor is dead. We definitely need more information from these people."
Andor walks to the trap door and says: "I would jump down there if you want - Chaldira is with me! Who want's to join me?"

Sek peeks through the trapdoor.

Map & Handouts
You enter into a gloomy, greenish twilight where scattered beams
of light filter down between weathered dock planks, bouncing off seaweed covered stones that jut from the dark harbor waters.
A forest of pylons suspends the docks above where the scurrying
feet of merchants, sailors, and longshoremen hammer like
a muffled thunderstorm. Between the pylons, you spot small
stone bunkers, ruins of older siege forts now crumbling and
weathered from centuries of angry waves. A narrow set of docks
traverses the rocks, connecting various locations. Eventually, all
lead out to the shallow bay at the mouth of the maze. Nearby,
you notice a fresh trail of muck-limned, wet footprints.
A new slide is up with characters on it where you arrive from the trap door.

Freire goes through the trapdoor and moves to where he is on the map, greatsword in hand. Seeing the two people that he does not know, he tries to sense their motive, particularly the one to his south.
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
He will also check those tracks using Survival.

Andor looks at his surroundings to see what is going on.
perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
He then tries to see if there are any other tracks to be seen except of the obvious footsteps.
suvival: 1d20 ⇒ 6
If he finds something he would inform the others.
Andor then steps forward to the dock workers and smiles at them: "Hey guys, sorry to bother you. But have you seen anybody coming from the direction that we just came from recently? Perceptive guys like you surely keep their eyes open, right?"
diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Map & Handouts
The guards tell you that they recently let a captain and his men return to their ship.
You also notice tracks leading to the small bunker on the left.

“Thanks for these information. “ Andor says.
@GM: Are the tracks going in the direction that the dock workers pointed towards where the captain and his men went to or are the tracks going to a different direction? Where would that be on the map? Thanks
Map & Handouts
The tracks go to the structure that Andor moved to. The men did not indicate which way the captain went.
He says, " I cannot let you pass unless you have a harbor masters pass"

"Of course I know that we need a harbour masters pass - after all we belong to the captain and his men and just want to find our comrades that had the pass with them! So tell us where they went and let us pass!" Andor replies with a sense of urgency.

Sorry for bothering you, sir
Ratesh pulls the rest of the group back out of earshot, as if to leave and tells them, I’ve got a little trick up my sleeve that will create a fog, which when inhaled, will cause someone to be intoxicated and fascinated with it for a short while. Assuming they don’t resist its affects, it could buy us time to hold our breath and slip by.
Euphoric Cloud is the spell

"At least tell us where the captain went to!" Andor demands from the worker.

The guard stare menacingly at Andor
"If you really belong to the captain, you would know where he went to. Now you best be leaving."

Andor turns towards Ratesh and sighs "Sorry, please clean up my mess."

Ratesh pulls the group at least 25’ back and casts Euphoric Cloud centered on the guards. Before seeing their reaction he starts to make his way past them.
Anyone in the 20’ radius (above as well) need to make a DC16 fort save every round or be fascinated with the fog. I guess it’s GM’s discretion if holding your breath and moving through helps.
Map & Handouts
I will give you a +5 to the fort save for holding your breath, and another +5 if you close your eyes.
The guard down by the bunker seems distracted, the other seems unaffected.

Alright, here we go. Cloud lasts for 4 rounds. Guard 1 is affected for 1d4+1 rounds. Guard 2 will have to make a save every round if he stays in the cloud. Not sure if you want to start an initiative order or not. I would think after casting I wouldn’t enter until round 2, but there’s a lot of GM interpretation here
Ratesh holds his breath and runs for the footprints/ship, doing what he can to avoid the unaffected guard, and pulling along any allies that might get affected.

Freire holds his breath, runs down to the guard, and then pushes him into the water so the party can enter the bunker.

Sek is going to ready a shot nonleathal shot (bludgeoning arrow) against the guard on the left assuming a shove may break fascination or that the unaffected guard will attack. He keeps his bow down by his side so he seems less threatening.

Freire bull rushes the guard, and is successful at pushing him into the water, but he does get an AoO, since he has combat reflexes.

The bullrush was an 18 which beat your cmd that is listed for Amerel. You were pushed into the water, but no damage.
