B1 begins barking orders. He points to B4 and B6:
"You two, grab her!" Then he turns to B2 and B3:
"You two-"
At that point, a large dragon head grows from the fire, and
Moon Moon calls out something incomprehensible to most of you, but fairly angry-sounding, from near the top of the mound. The dragon's head mouths the same words.
A moment thereafter, the horses go berserk as an Orc charges into the midst.
Karok slices left and right and manages to free four of them. They bolt, but not before two of them strike out defensively at Karok with their hooves. He catches one directly to the forehead,
knocking him out.
One of the horses sprints past the fire, one toward the road, and the other two away into the darkness (the arrows on the map show the direction the horses have gone). The two that remain in their original positions are still staked down but rearing frantically and trying to get loose.
The moment
B5 hears Moon Moon's voice, he whips out a Light Crossbow and fires wildly at the kobold, in such haste that the shot misses.
Nert fires back at B5 in reaction, but his shot also goes wide.
Saashala backs away, but
B4 and
B6 do as they were told and try to grab on to her. She barely slips the grasp of B4, but B6 manages to lock his fingers around her forearm.
Upon seeing all heck break loose, B1 changes what he had been saying to the remaining pair:
"The horses! We can't carry anything without the horses! Get them!" But
B2 and
B3 just seem too confused by the chaos, or perhaps too mesmerized by the dragon head in the fire, and do nothing.
Ripnek stands ready to bring the ground battle to the enemy, while
Drutha emerges from the hidden stairwell.
OOC:

Both Nert and Moon Moon are visible in the firelight. Ripnek, Karok, and Drutha are out of LOS of the enemy for now. I added a gray line to the map -- the squares under it have LOS to the action near the fire. Anyone on top of the mound can attempt to Hide from the people below if you crouch down, go prone, or move outside the gray line.
Moon Moon can't put the fire out in the same casting of Control Flames as he animated them (the spell says "one of the following ways"). So he can put it out with another casting of Control Flames next round, if he likes.
