The single wand fires two bolts of sulfur smelling smoke.
"Anyone have the keys to this door?" Eria asks
"Move away from the tower," calls a voice from within. The sound of a crossbow cranequin being wound adds emphasis.
Captain Blacklock is almost felled with a single stroke. He looks astonished as Manfred's sword slides beneath the plates covering his chest at an impossibly precise angle, more surprised when Manfred twists the sword enough to cause blood to spurt out from beneath his armor.
He continues his attack, however.
As The guards swing their crossbows around Liandra watches closely for the one who moves more slowly, striking quickly to drag the blade of her other kukhri across his wrist.

Sir Manfred blocks again, and this time follows up with a shield bash.

The little mage staggers a little under the weight of the Baron's attacks. His eyes arrow and he prepares to respond in kind.
I'd like that wand. Nice wand.

The two Chelish bodyguards fire at . Though, for one, it seems more of a spasm from being cut.
Neither, in any case, are successful.
Meanwhile, near the front gate, a garri finch flutters down and picks at the bread Eria set out for it. It waits for Eria to tell it where to go.
You compel a Tiny animal to go to a spot you designate. The most common use for this spell is to get an animal to carry a message to your allies. The animal cannot be one tamed or trained by someone else, including such creatures as familiars and animal companions.
Using some type of food desirable to the animal as a lure, you call the animal to you. It advances and awaits your bidding. You can mentally impress on the animal a certain place well known to you or an obvious landmark. The directions must be simple, because the animal depends on your knowledge and can't find a destination on its own. You can attach a small item or note to the messenger. The animal then goes to the designated location and waits there until the duration of the spell expires, whereupon it resumes its normal activities.

The message is a fairly simple one stating that the Baron has been driven from the keep and that we are looking for him in the town. Also that most of the guards no longer seem all that interested in fighting
Knotty returns fire, aiming his last glitterdust at the Baron, but making sure to avoid Liandra. Then the little halfling ducks down below the level of the table and chairs, gaining as much cover as he can.

"Oooh. You made me shiny. Going to the ball, are we?" says the Baron sarcastically even though surely he recognizes the danger he's in.

Sir Manfred's attack is fended off easily. Captain Blacklock replies with his sword.

What does Eria do in the meantime?
One of the barmaids has crawled out from under the table to watch the fight.
Sir Manfred misses the block and takes a serious hit; he reels back a step before counterattacking.

What does Eria do in the meantime?
Wait to see if they got the message (was kind of relying on the finch returning a reply as per the spell so may be waiting for quite a while)
Edit Scratch that just realised it doesn't allow a return message option (assuming she would know what her spell can and cant do)So will wait about 10 minutes or so and assuming it doesn't begin raining arrowed death in that time take that as a sign that the message was received

Galadar sees a barmaid scurry down the street, barely looking at the men with the swords and the blood and the epicness.
Manfred's blade penetrates the fine plate. Captain Blacklock sees the gash open up on his arm and finds he can barely lift his shield. He begins to defend with it by swinging his hips and throwing his shield around in front of him with a straight, useless arm.
His sword arm still works though.
Uh, Yes?
Liandra swings viciously at the Baron trying to forestall another magical attack.

Sir Manfred takes the blow, which deflects off the plate armor in a shower of sparks. He counters with a shield bash.

He steps back and withdraws into the hallway then turns into one of the rooms.
The two Chelish bodyguards have dropped their crossbows and are drawing their swords.

Captain Blacklock, his eyes desperate and wild, tracks Manfred's sword as it moves around. He prepares to throw his shield up in front of him to block it, swinging his dead arm back by swinging his hips.
The shield crunching into the side of his head takes him completely by surprise. He falls.
Whispering in the door way ceases but slowly a murmur of approval begins.
Knotty moves up to Liandra and casts a spell upon her, briefly wings appear on her heels.
"Get after the Baron. I'll take these."

Once Eria is fairly certain that the town is not going to be attacked again she will begin to head back to the others.
Galadar runs after the running barmaid to see what she is up to.
The barmaid hurries towards the front gate from which Eria is returning. Galadar sees Eria coming towards the barmaid from the other direction. Eria sees Galadar coming towards her.
He steps back and withdraws into the hallway then turns into one of the rooms.

Eria does a double take upon seeing the 'barmaid'
"You have got to be kidding me" she mumbles more to herself than anything else. She then moves to head the person off.

The barmaid startles and makes to cross the street.
