As Graxus and Tywin walk the passageway they accidentally walk over a tripwire and a piano that was pulled up by the ropes and pulleys comes plumetting down!

Muluk al-Zadari wrote: Muluk simply glares at the Taldan noble, but says nothing. "We should check the opposite side of the stage area," he suggests to his fellows. So saying, he begins striding across the stage. Muluk sees nothing out of the ordinary on the stage, but he does hear a loud crash from behind the curtain!

Targost walks across the stage to the other side (stage, front) with Muluk and looks for a door on that side.
Targost sees no door (and also hears the crash).

"What was that?"
He rushes to the curtains and throws them back to see what has happened.
As Targost opens the curtain he also triggers a makeshift trap. A flask of alchemical fire falls down and sets the curtain on fire!
1 splashdamage on Targost.
The Taldan crowd starts screaming again! "FIRE FIRE! We're all going to burn alive!"

Talwin rushes back at hearing the cry for help. He will cast create water targeting directly over the flames.

You don't have to rush back, as you can see the fire from both sides of the curtain.
Talwin manages to quench the fire!
I'll leave the fire on the map, cause I think it looks cool...

Graxus roars angrily and kicks and chops the piano to bits.
Tywin meanwhile is on healing duty and uses a wand of infernal healing on himself and a rejuvenate eidolon on Graxus.

Muluk pushes through the heavy curtain. "Are you hurt? he asks Twywin, pointedly ignoring Graxus.
Muluk trips the left side of the burning curtain trap!
take 1 fire...
And the left side of the curtain catches fire!

"Owww. Thanks Talwin!
Targost moves cautiously forward towards the door at the back of the stage.

Targost spots two more traps! A pit trap and a bear trap between a couple of boxes.

"Umm, guys! There are some more traps over here! Someone has been busy!"
He points out where he spotted the traps, then continues on towards the door.

"Blood and ashes!" Talwin exclaims, then douses the new flames with magic.[b]"

Talwin takes care of the left curtain fire and you all carefully circumvent the traps and arrive at the door on the other side of the walkway. After you made sure there aren't any traps on the door you open it.
Various parts of a dozen corpses lie strewn about the floor of this room. Blood and gore stain everything, making the floor slick and filling the room with a metallic aroma. Bodies lie askew, mouths hanging open in silent screams, faces contorted in fear.

Graxus moves into the room and alerts Tywin to the dangers with their supernatural link.
Link communication is a free action and with other GM's it is often ruled that a link like this helps avoiding surprise if the familiar/bond notices the ambush. How do you deal with this? Also please don't roll initiative for Graxus, he will stick to Tywin's to avoid a mess.
A familiar only gives alertness if it is at arms length, nothing more. (+2 bonus! Hooray!)
I see a summoner and his eidelon as two seperate combat entities. You are free to delay and get the initiatives together. (At a live table I tend to put pets on their masters initiative, but that's to save time.)

As he looks into the room, Targost is sickened by what he sees. What really makes his skin crawl, however, is that he notices some of the bodies are rising up!
"More zombies in here!" he calls out to the others before unleashing a stream of acid at the nearest creature.
Ray of Acid: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

I'm talking about the link special feature they have. It's a free action to communicate for them.

Yeah, regular talking is a free action as well, so I don't think that's a valid argument. Not being surprised if either makes it's perception/sense motive/whatever is such a powerful feature that if that was intended they would have spelled it out.

Tywin sees the gigantic monster come around the corner and thinks it might be better to hasten everyone up. Casting haste on Himself, Graxus, Pokey and Talwin.
"Good boy Tywin!" Graxus laughs and slashes and cuts through the creatures starting with the Bugbear.

Can't view map on mobile, but I'd like to 5' step back and attack if there's a space. Go for more wounded enemy first, probably bugbear. But will take either if 5' is restricted.
Talwin yells out and strikes again at his foes!

He poses next to the slain tyrant lizard and asks
"Is anyone of you capable of capturing this amazing moment for posterity? How my command lead to this creature's downfall?"

Talwin stifles a chuckle.
"If only I could, milord! Your brilliant leadership was clearly decisive in this engagement. However, the means of escaping is yet unclear. Let me examine the door over here..."
Talwin heads over to the southeastern door, inspecting it for traps or magical wards.
