Solace bounded down the stairs from the ledge, taking them two at a time. She sprinted across the open cavern, making straight for the mouth of the passageway where Ce'rek pressed himself against the rock wall, and drawing her rapier as she sped forward. Several things happened in concert. Ce'rek saw her rapid approach; indeed, she was nearly on him ere he could do much to react. Solace spied Ce'rek, and skidded to a stop when she was within ten feet of him. A wall was to her immediate right. She hadn't cast
light on the wall, but it occurred to her as she eyed her quarry that she could do so. The creature that appeared before her, however, was no kuo-toa; nay, it was a
goblin. And alone, at that. Well-armed with short swords at its hips and a staff and a shortbow poking up from behind, the goblin sported leather armor. His face was covered by a hood, but Solace could make out a row of pointy teeth and a snarl. Although he was small--he came up only to just above her waist--he was fearsome. The raven-haired human woman who stood before Ce'rek was ethereal-looking. Although it was dark in the cavern, her paleness gleamed. Certainly, she was quick, quicker than he might like. Ce'rek made out the drawn rapier in her hand, and a hand crossbow at her hip. She wore good-quality clean leather, better than his.
Kamael rounded the corner, brushing past Kago, and followed after his kin. It was dark in here, but like Solace Kamael could see decently well, albeit within limited range. He darted forward, stopping within forty feet of Solace. He could make out Solace, and then a moment later saw what she'd seen--a stunted goblin in leather, armed to the teeth.

Edited to account for Wrex's post, which I missed until after I responded here. I don't think we need to account for actions/bonus actions/reactions/movement anymore. Looks like ya'll can take it from here.
