"Sounds like we need to prioritize driving the Zhentarim out, then. I can help rout the weaker willed, unless my compatriots think I would be more useful searching for the informant while they handle that? If I help clear the pass, perhaps I could fill the role of bait, or scout. Draw them out, make them rout. The soldiers are probably not resolute enough to resist, the greater concern would be a skymage. We'll want to find out how many we'll be facing before we engage."
