I admit to being a big confused on where we should be, distance wise? We started out with 3 rounds of sneaking up actions? Or did we only get one due to Dunkel getting spotted?

The false ghost, but true elf, tries to summon something nasty ! We must disturb her ! says Jair who moves to have a line of sight against the faster and casts a spell.
COME !

Suddenly moving with unusual speed, Doubtful darts out from behind a tree, dodging into the ruins and right up next to the male elf before most even realize he was there.
so.... Burn a ki point for the extra movement... which is just enough to reach the male elf (but not the guy with the bow as well, due to angles
He leads with one heavily booted foot.
At which point, try to kick him somewhere sensitive (ie: unarmed attack with stunning fist)
Should be starting out stealthed here... so this is vs flat footed I believe.
Unarmed Strike vs ff male elf:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15, for 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10 damage plus stunned (DC 15 fortitude negates)
Jair's order fails to compel the woman, while Doubtful's swift kick to the naughty bits definitely leaves the man unhappy, though not doubled over in pain.
Dunkel is up. Maybe someday these guys will make a save.
The elf backs away from Doubtful, unleashing a torrent of flame over the Dwarf, who is able to nimbly leap out of the way. The ball of flame begins rolling back into the ruined structure.

The two Kestrels open fire, one on each dwarf. One manages to connect with Dunkel, then falls back towards his allies.

Overcome by rage, Amiri hustles forward, ignoring the other combatants in her haste to reach the one at the back caught in the throes of protracted spellcasting.
That will provoke from yellow and the elf, but since one had a bow, and the other is a caster, I think it is a fairly safe risk ;-)
AoO (on spellcaster, for casting a spell whilst in melee), Rage, Power Attack, Powerful Blow: 1d20 + 7 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 2 - 2 = 17, for 2d8 + 7 + 3 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 5) + 7 + 3 + 6 + 2 = 27 damage.
Amiri, you only get an AOO if you're threatening the caster when they begin the spell, even for a duration longer than one round.
The woman drops her scroll in frustration as Imrana's small beam of cold hits her. Instead, she cautiously casts a different spell, and disappears entirely...

GM Lari:
I am perfectly happy with that ruling (and don't want to bog down the game with a multi-post discussion), but for my own post-game edification, can you point to where it explicitly states that 1 round actions only provoke at the *start* of the action? It comes up for both 1 round casting of spells, and delivering potions to unconscious people, so it is something I would like to know :-)
You only provoke attacks of opportunity when you begin casting a spell, even though you might continue casting for at least 1 full round. While casting a spell, you don’t threaten any squares around you.
The same text can be found in the Full Round Action section on the PRD
Doubtful and Dunkel's combined assault topples the elf, his eyes once again seeming lifeless. Doubtful thinks he hears movement a good distance from the woman's last location. The blue cloud shape Stealth:1d20 + 2 + 20 ⇒ (3) + 2 + 20 = 25
One of the militia members looses an arrow at Amiri before backing away from the approaching Pathfinders. The other does the same to Dunkel, though both arrows go wide.

Thorn finally gives up the stealth and hustles over to the man with the yellow bandana and lets him have it. Thorn holds one blade back to improve his defense even though it impedes his thrust a bit (Combat Expertise AC is now 19.) Sneak Attack:1d20 + 6 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 1 - 1 = 16 for DMG:1d6 + 2 + 2d6 ⇒ (1) + 2 + (1, 1) = 5
Amiri cuts down her target, while Thorn's yelps, perhaps more out of surprise than pain. Imrana finds the elven woman clearly visible to her own senses.
Spellcraft:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
The elf quickly becomes visible to everyone as she unleashes a multicolored burst of light at Imrana.

With a panicked scream, the woman turns to run away. Just as it appears she might smash into the fortress wall, a shimmering portal appears, and she appears on the other side, some distance from Jair.
Thorn's opponent draws a handaxe, slashing desperately.
1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 2 = 15
Amiri notices a large trapdoor at her feet. It shows obvious signs of recent use. the letter T

Dunkel considers rubbing his eyes in disbelief that the elven female is practically where he started when the battle broke out. He fails to indulge the urge, realizing a bandit stands a mere fifteen feet away.
"Ah' got th' one here with Thorn, dun worry 'bout us!"

On his turn: Thorn slides a little closer, talking calmly to his enemy "Hey bub, you know this is going to hurt, don't forget to keep an eye on my big strong friend!"
Thorn takes a 5' step, he doesn't wait for the flank, he just stabs:
Dunkel manages to knock out the last soldier, and the woman raises her hands in defeat.
"Alright, I surrender. Who are you? Why are you here? You don't strike me as the soldier type."
Out of combat. The soldiers each have a potion, two smokesticks, a masterwork chain shirt, a composite longbow (+2 Str), 20 arrows (minus a few shot), a handaxe, two tindertwigs, and 56 gp. Mundane gear from the casters: 3 alchemist fire (each), 2 thunderstone (each), mwk light crossbow with 20 bolts (each), 2 small steel mirrors, spell component pouch (each), The man also has 100 feet of silk rope and a disguise kit.
Things that need to be identified:
Two Potions from the Soldiers
Potion from Male
Potion from Female
Wand #1 from Male
Wand #2 from Male
Wand #3 from Male
Wand #1 from Female
Wand #2 from Female
Wand #3 from Female
There are also the following scrolls (Jair has read magic): [i]Ghostly Disguise (2), Summon Monster III (1), and each has a spellbook, which I'll include on the discussion tab.
Imrana identifies two potions. of Cure Light Wounds I'm going to let you identify the other as well with that, as they're the same, a Wand of Alarm with (4 charges), and a Wand of Mage Armor (14 charges).
Two potions from the casters, three wands from the man, and one from the woman. There are also two cloaks I failed to include. Imrana doesn't know what they do.
He glances at the elf lady warily, before confiscating a couple of the alchemist fires.
"Well, the bird guys are here." He adds, motioning to the kestrel symbol on the two archers. He shrugs slightly, clearly ready to knock it up to pure coincidence.
He then goes to check out the trapdoor, though trying not to touch it.
Perception:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (7) + 10 = 17
If she has an alarm wand, that would just alert her? Or everyone? Might be a good idea to keep detect magic going to make sure we don't set one of those off as we go further in

Thorn steps in front of Doubtful with an arm to block him. The motion isn't rude, it seems to be genuine concern. The odd show of compassion from Thorn is a little weird. Perception:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
Assuming its safe, "Right family, I'm all set on the praeda for the nonce, but I'm hoping you're good with the gravy if I'm dry."
He then opens it and quietly pokes his way inside.
Male elf is dead. Soldiers had enough time that Jair can stabilize them with the spell if they don't stabilize themselves or others don't have the chance first.
