Snowball tears into the red troglodyte, pulling him down in the process. Garn then slams his scimitar down on him, and the troglodyte passes out from the wounds.
Pau moves into position now that red is not a threat, and punches blue right in the face.

Lantorth lets out a string of curses due to the over bearing stentch and fires off another missile from his wand.

Graff will delay, so we may continue.
Blue tries to stand (allowing AoO from Snowball, Garn, Pau and Radagast... should it survive, I will handle it's attack).
Green attacks Garn, trying to open up an escape route for Blue. Garn's defenses are too good, though, and the attack fails.
Round 1:
Radagast makes his save, hits Red for 14 damage.
Fluffy failed the save and is sickened, misses attack
Pau saves and delays.
Garn saves and misses.
Snowball saves and misses. (Took 3 attacks, but only 1 counted)
Green attacks Garn and misses.
Blue attacks Snowball and hits for 8 damage.
Red attacks Garn and misses.
Jayori fails save and is sickened, delays.
Lantorth fails save and is sickened, magic missiles Red for 3 pt(Red=17 dmg)
Graf fails to show up.
Round 2:
Radagast hits Red for 14 damage. (Red=31 dmg, goes down)
Fluffy full attacks, but nothing is there, so we will assume move and first attack against Blue - misses.
Pau moves up and hits Blue for 5 dmg (Blue=5 dmg)
Garn attacks Blue for 8 dmg. (Blue=13 dmg)
Snowball hits blue for 10 more damage and trips it. (Blue=23 dmg, prone)
Green attacks Garn and misses.
Blue stands up, but Radagast hits with AoO for 14 dmg. (Blue=37 dmg, he goes down)
Jayori delays again.
Lantorth uses another magic missle, hitting green for 5 pts. (Green=5 dmg)
Graf still doesn't appear.
Round 3:
No actions taken yet.
Green attacks Radagast, who really hit him hard.
There seems to be an opening, so Graf moves in, swinging his greataxe and cleaving it in the chest.

"You would think we'd be used to the stench by now" Lantorth says through his hand as he fires another missile.

And that is enough to put the green one down.
As a recap:
Claustrophobic cells line the walls here, many crowded with three or four miserable-looking humans. The halls converge on a hewn-stone chamber lit with braziers and choked with herb-scented smoke.
Draconic works, but common does not.
Speaking in Draconic, they are pretty beat down, but they thank you for your assistance.
Voices sound out further down the hall—the guttural and staggered ringing of human speech rather than the lilting hisses of snakes. Men and women—many of them malnourished and wounded but athletic nonetheless—stand over the fresh corpses of troglodyte minders while gripping stolen blades and makeshift clubs.

"It would seem the locals are fighting back." Jayori says with satisfaction.
"Perhaps they can tell us things we can not learn from observing?"
He will make an attempt to interact (positively!), approaching the bedraggled humans trying not to look threatening.
"We have freed some of your own back that way." He begins. "They might need further assistance."
A powerfully built woman Uszanriar, whose face and arm were heavily burned, seemingly leads the rebels. She is unfriendly towards you as you approach, but Jayori is able to calm her fears that you are some sort of serpent trick.
"Allies?" she asks.
Assuming you say yes, she continues. "My name is Uszanriar. General Krahnaliara Lac Suhn, our commander, was dragged away by the priests only an hour ago. I believe that he is now somewhere within their temple. I have dedicated myself more to fighting off the serpentfolk!"
As you head north, among more and more cells, you hear some odd hiss-chanting off to the east.
Pau turns the corner, trying to determine what is going on, when he is surprised to see a strange, worm-like creature flying at him. The air around the creature appears to be distorted, like you would see in the heat of a desert. In fact, there are two of them!
The first flies direct at Pau (partial charge) and slaps at him with its tail. Luckily, the creature seems to misjudge the distance, and simply misses him. The other one blinks briefly, as it seems to conjure a mist that obscures vision in the hallway.
The second simply flies closer.
You hear an unearthly mottled scream as the flames singe both of the creatures. The pinkish one whips it's tail at Pau again, but is way off the mark. The blue one blinks briefly as it conjurers an obscuring mist.
