Since the team plans to ambush the merchant instead of slipping into his warehouse, Fadilah decides to set the stage for the team.
"How do you want this area to look? Where do you want to hide?"
She gets various bits of feedback from the team about ideal subtle ways to manipulate the area for concealment.
rounds
Then, when everyone signals that they are in the positions they want, she moves to a place where she can slip into a corner or up against a wall and casts a powerful illusion to mask the space so that everyone is hidden—behind a fake receptacle, a convenient pile of discarded and mildewy carpets, a deep shadow, whatever looks natural and unsuspicious but gives the person total concealment.
The sounds will be coming from around a corner where some old boxes or something are in the alley, so not immediately observable until you are halfway into the alley.
Frackit goes with his battle axe this time. Clutching it firmly a grim determination on his usually smiling face. He nods to the others as he himself begins to think about how to proceed forward, Once the stage is set he will pick a position to best strike from axe going for a humans thighs groin or belly. It was perfect height for the Gnome, not so much for the human.
Zairiah howls like a dog for a few minutes, loud enough that someone inside the warehouse should be able to hear it.
GM Rolls
From the corner of the alley you can hear a distinctly feminine voice.
Detect Noise
(fail)
After listening for a moment, Zairiah continues making doggish sounds, but more quietly after hearing the voice.
Frackit clears some hair from his ear, regretting not going to the barber. So he cups his hand and focuses on the movements on the otherside. his big ears a blessing.
Your group hides behind the spectral wall of force hiding you from whomever is coming.
A lanky middle-aged elven woman makes her way to the spot, she wears a
pure red dolman and a bright red silk keffiyeh, held in
place by a similarly colored agal. Over the dolman,
she wears a sash in an even brighter red. She has subtle refinement in her features with wrinkles around her eyes and she is wearing satin veil that is see-through but she continues to mumble to herself about burning. She then says, "Poochie, poochie!!! come, I have a gift for you."
Out from her handbag she produces a large piece of Sujuk and then whistles and says, "Ali's got some yum, yum..."
Frackit gestures wondering if this was one of the people or is she was magical
If she's surrounded by us as we planned, then Zairiah gives the signal to attack. The wizard can disguise himself as anything, and is wearing the colors of the brotherhood of flame. Definitely him.
After signalling everyone, Zairiah shoots out of the illusion at the wizard.

Nura attacks with great prejudice, hoping that Zairiah isn't wrong.
Hearing the signal, Paritosh springs into action...
Frackit leaps forward to move past the others. For him it was the door that needed to be secured. If need be he would shut down the Wizard.

Frackit will cast Silence on the Woman. Hopefully muffling the battle sounds and cutting off the most important thing in the Wizards Arsenal thier voice. Centering it on the Wizard.

Fadilah continues concentrating on the spectral force to keep the illusion intact! Not only does it provide great ambush cover, it helps keep the fight isolated from the main thoroughfare!
Paritosh, Zairiah and Nura successfully hit the middle-aged elf woman. Her face writhes in pain as she screams which is abruptly cut off by Frackit's spell.

She then pulls out a wand and a large claypot with a wick on top, she sets off the wand and emits a fan-shaped sheet of fire 10 feet wide at its end and 12 feet long. Hitting Paritosh and Zairiah doing 6pts of fire damage The sheet of fire appears instantly, shoots forth dark red flames. The action sets the wick of the claypot on fire.
Party
(save for half)
Zairiah is burned, and she has a flashback to her near-death experience being burned horribly by Hanzala, but she steels herself and shoots again. This was their only chance at the wizard. The silence spell was probably going to keep him from teleporting away, unless he had a wand for that too, but they had to take him down now. This was the only way.
Success 3HP of damage?
Paritosh attacks her twice.
Nura lashes out, striking twice.
Fadilah, Frackit
