Not being able to do much with everybody smashed up in the bottleneck, and more than happy to let everybody else throw themselves at the heavily armed men, the black maiden holds out her hand again.
SlickAiming for the greatsword this time. DC 12 or drops it.
She steps back a bit, trying to open up some room for the other fighters to get in.

I'm pretty sure you don't take a cover penalty for reach melee weapons.
Actually:
Cover wrote:
When making a melee attack against a target that isn’t adjacent to you (such as with a reach weapon), use the rules for determining cover from ranged attacks.
Swinging a long spear or polearm at someone is difficult if someone else is standing in the way.
"...Um...how do you win a battle of wits with an unarmed adversary?"
The big man seems puzzled by Lydia's remark. "Is the answer: man? So like in the morning he's short, or something, and...."
Then Lydia's weapon traces another line across the man's well sculpted chest.
reflex:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
A moment later, like a bar of damp soap the huge sword slips up out of his hands and embeds itself in the earth inches from Tawner's head.
Reacting quickly he pulls a very heavy flail from his belt and twirls it about like nunchaku. It makes a funny noise as moves through the air. He sends it crashing through the head of the phantom shadow creature that moved to bar its path.
heavy flail v Fomalhaut (rage, power attack):1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23damage:1d10 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
"has to crawl around until noon, or something...."

Speaking of forgetting, Maiden you are entangled. From now on I need some concentration checks when you cast spells.
The man furthest back fires his bow at the Black Maiden.

The barbarian seems too caught up in Lydia's riddle to notice any additional confusion.

"'Fomalhaut'!? 'The answer'!?[i] What's a 'Fomalhaut'!?" The Kellid yells, his face twisting from surprise, to confusion, to fury.
"[i]THAT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!!" he roars not hearing woman's emphasis and instead hearing a pause separating the words "I didn't mean-' from "he's the answer".

If someone could get to my wand of clw that would be great. Otherwise, I will act as "super easy, barely an inconvenience" terrain.
Oh, we're way ahead of Tawner on the whole squishy terrain bit. A shadow has literally fallen across him, but I still need him to make some Constitution checks to see if that is actually 'foreboding' or not. On the plus side, the tanglefoot bag that hit him dries to ineffectual brittleness.
The second brigand moves up, avoiding Lydia's distracted swing.

The warriors sensing they have enough of an advantage press the attack, but fail to connect with either bow or blade.

Lydia begins to regret using sunflowers as training dummies. Much as she enjoyed lopping their happy little heads off, they failed to prepare her for the movements of wiry Numerian barbarians.

Bright light coalesces into rolling clouds that condense into form and shadow. A face. A beautiful face. Sarenrae? Tawner manages to croak out the name, but isn't sure that he made a sound.

Settling on it, Tawner parleys a slight stomach complant, a bad hangnail, and annoying bone spurs into a medical discharge from adventuring. He wheezes slightly as he rises to his feet.
Meanwhile, Lydia attempts to resuscitate her shadow.
While Dominic and Black Maiden chase down the last bandit. Hallimir scrambles down the rocky hillside while the Black Maiden leaps off the top of the hill, skates its steep incline and comes up swinging.
Seeing his path to freedom cut off the Kellid man yields, tosses his bow aside and pleads for his life.
