The team pushes through, hurrying through rooms that look like they are in various stages of being ransacked. You push through, to see a half-elven man leap through the open window. Shouts in Skald can be heard from a small, frozen yard stands between rickety fences to the east of the armory. Target dummies, both for melee and archery training, stand at the far eastern end of the icy field.
In the courtyard, you see a large Ulfen man that matches the desciption of Hjort, the aforementioned half-elf who appears to not have any armor or weapons, an Ulfen woman wearing studded leather, and carrying a shield and light mace, and an Ulfen man with a crossbow and also not wearing any armor.
Notes: It is icy outside, so anyone who attempts to take more than a single move action during a round must succeed on a DC 15 Acrobatics check to avoid falling prone in the courtyard
Hjort yells out to Bon Jon, "Pathfinders! Your crimes are well known! Come, fight us, and face your doom!"

Tired of being stuck on the stairs, Sunlight Under Stone hauls the chest through the Pathfinders. ”Someone yelling? Is that Hjort?” they ask, pausing in the far hallway.
Double move, treating chest as medium encumbrance to reduce speed to 15 ft. They do not have actions to open the door in front of them this round.
Hjort looks up the Bon Jon and the rest of you. "Pathfinders! Get down here and face me!" he cries out. "You crimes against Trollheim demand blood, and I am here to claim it! Your attacks against us were unwarranted!
"Come down here and face your doom!"

Chamius advances a little ways, tapping out a rhythm on his buckler with the handle of his whip, and chants in time with the beat:

Bon Jon leaps through the air to confront Hjort. Using the Flying Kick style strike to leap 5' through the air as part of a flurry of blows. This should avoid the icy conditions and still allow him to make a full attack.

I'm ok with provoking (although would try to do an Acrobatics to avoid) but don't want to end up prone. I think I can make another Acrobatics to leap down and not wind up prone if it's only 10'?

Bon Jon leaps down to confront the enemies.
Acrobatics, speed higher than 30:1d20 + 10 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 10 + 4 = 25
As he leaps, he twists and turns, attempting to avoid any attacks from his foes. Incidentally, I'm not sure he even provokes an AoO unless they have reach. The flying kick style strike provokes AoO from movement "as normal" but Bon Jon isn't passing through a threatened square as he leaps down unless they have reach.
Acrobatics:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (18) + 10 = 28
Acrobatics:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (5) + 10 = 15
The flying kick movement (10') is part of Flurry of Blows, so unless Bon Jon had to move more than 10', the rest of his turn should stay the same as posted above.
All good. But...
Bon Jon leaps down nimbly avoiding provoking from Hjort, but does provoke from the half-elf, though he misses.
open-hand strike vs aC21:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Bon Jon then sends a flurry of punches at the big Ulfen, hitting twice.
Hjort then steps to the side of Bon Jon, bellowing out in Skald as he swings his hand-axe and dagger. His swings fall short.
Handaxe vs AC21:1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14 Dagger vs AC21:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
The half-elf then steps into flank, and attacks Bon Jon.

Wow... guess RNG does love Bon Jon.
Seeing how hard that Bon Jon seems to be to hit, the human in robes cast a spell against him, and two tiny bolts of energy fly out, striking unerringly. They sting the martial artist, finally drawing blood.

Stomping forward to the window, Jordun leaps towards the battle, feathered arms and legs allowing him to land safely. He clicks his tongue disappointedly as he fails to get as much distance as he would like. "Where are you going, madam?" he inquires, growing rapidly in size as he brings his weapon to bear on her.
Seeing people jump out the window at what appears to be Hjort and his cohort, Sven also rushes up to the window, pulling his sling as he goes and loading a bullet. He begins twirling the sling, winding up for the launch as he picks his target and whistles for Wrex to attack.

Following Jordun out the window, Ktasha shakes her head at the larger tengu freezing up. "Grunt, guard Jordun!" she calls out, hoping the raptor can find the way back down.
Ktasha leaps down, landing heavily on the ground. As she goes down, Hjort and the half- elf attack her (AOOs) . While Hjort lands his blow, the monk does not. Even though she is prone (took damage from a fall) Ktasha lands he blow!

Sunlight Under Stone follows their companions to the window, chest in tow. ”What’s going on out there, Wrex?” they ask before spotting the mayhem below. ”Oh, is that Horst?” A clump of stone flies from the window over Bon Jon and Jordan’s heads to indicate the human in question.
While Sunlight's rock goes wild, Bon Jon's kicks do not. Hjort goes down, his neck twisted in a way that causes the suli monk to cringe.
The half-elf then punches Ktasha, hoping to take the not-prone tengu down. After the first punch, which catches her right between the eyes, she drops her blade, and collapses.
With Ktasha down, he turns to Jordun, who is less than mobile. His fist catches the large bird in the ... tail?

Tasha, get up! Jordun, move! Sven shouts at his siblings, quite distraught since he tought they were the competent ones in the clutch.

Leaning out the window, Sven launches a sling bullet at the half-elf, striking him!
The woman that paralyzed Jordun steps forward and holds up her inverted pentagram holy symbol, channeling out dark energy that licks over Jordun, Ktasha, Bon Jon, and even Sven up in the window, but avoids her allies.Should just at about 25' to him....I think. Maths
The mind of the unconscious Ktasha does the best job of repelling the infernal energies, but all are hurt by it.
The two animal companions make their way out the front door, and are almost into the fight.
Jordun is paralyzed, and needs to make a will save at the end of his turn/ Ktasha is at -11hp, and needs to make a DC21 CON check to stabilize. I am very sorry about this, but she would not have selected her out, as she is an enemy in a fight to the death.

Sunlight Under Stone grimly forms a spear of dark stone in their hand before leaning around Sven to launch it out the window at the dark cleric in the courtyard below.

Bon Jon leaps through the air and attacks the glowering fellow in the corner (green).
Use flying kick monk style strike to leap 10' as part of the flurry of blows. Since it's a leap it is presumably unaffected by the ice? This movement provokes AoOs as normal, but unless Purple or Green have reach it won't provoke from them.
Each of the attacks above potentially has +1 to hit and dmg from the Liberty's Edge faction boon vs. "known slavers" - I'm not sure whether the use of Hold Person on Jordun would qualify, but it might. I don't have the exact text of the boon in front of me right now so don't worry about it if you feel it's doubtful.
Bon Jon, you didn't do more than a single move, so technically no need to roll the acrobatics. However. you would technically need to do am acrobatics check if you are actually jumping. My read of the ability says you "the monk can move a distance equal to his fast movement bonus", which is not necessarily a jump. However, again you did not double move, so no problem
Sunlight whips a rock at the Asmodean cleric, striking her hard and she collapses to the ground.
Bon Jon runs out, and attacks. The arcane caster goes down on his last attack!
Now that Jordun is speaking, the half-elf strikes at him!

The ability Bon Jon is using is the flying kick (unchained monk) style strike.
style strike wrote:
Whenever he makes a flurry of blows, he can designate one of his unarmed strikes as a style strike. This attack is resolved as normal, but it has an additional effect depending on the type of strike chosen.
flying kick wrote:
The monk leaps through the air to strike a foe with a kick. Before the attack, the monk can move a distance equal to his fast movement bonus. This movement is made as part of the monk’s flurry of blows attack and does not require an additional action. At the end of this movement, the monk must make an attack against an adjacent foe. This movement may be between attacks. This movement provokes an attack of opportunity as normal. The attack made after the movement must be a kick.
So technically there's no move action at all - there's just a special 10' of movement that's included as a bonus on the (full-round) flurry of blows action (which is important because if he had to "move action" the 10' to get to the foe he couldn't have attacked three times with a flurry). The ability says that you "leap through the air" which is why I interpreted it as saying that it would avoid the icy conditions, but I suppose one could say that's just flavor text. Regardless, there's definitely nothing in the ability about requiring an Acrobatics check to Leap (as per the normal skill rules).

Bon Jon moves forward 5' and makes a flurry of attacks against his fellow monk, chiding him as he does.
