"Somebody smother those flames!" The Ignan voice called out in response to Jørmund's challenge. "I'll show that snow-lover what a bad idea [i]really[/i] looks like!"

"Stand down, Yoseph!" The Terran voice commanded. "Remember the Sultan's orders. The rest of you, get those fires out and overrun this paltry resistance! FOR THE SULTAN!"

"FOR THE SULTAN!" Far too many voices to count called out in reply.

As Cascade moved to assist Flicker, one of the attackers stuck behind the genasi paladin's Marine Layer calls out to the rest. "I see a gap in the fog! This way!" The sound of rapid footfalls would then be heard as the attackers moved towards and through the gap. They wouldn't get far though. As the first two of the attackers made it around the fog, they were struck down by a volley of arrows, as were the two attackers harassing Jørmund, Rala, and Paxton.

Reinforcements had arrived. Eighteen highwaymen had emerged from deeper within the camp, the nine in front forming a pair of shield walls while the nine behind rained arrows down on the attackers. "Open the way!" A voice called from the highwaymen once the volley had landed, causing the shield walls to open enough to let the party through. "We can hold the attackers off for now! The boss wants every other able body to muster at the bonfire!"

The attackers halted by Cascade's Marine Layer use their reactions to move towards and through the gap Cascade's movement has opened.

Highwayman reinforcements arrive.

Both shield walls open to let the party pass through.
