Albrecht follows right behind Bastion and waits on guard while Ildrahil investigates for traps or other hidden mechanisms.
Bastion tries to assess the room as well as he can. He'll leave the women to the others, but he does say, "Caution, the enemy likes false appearances, they may not be as helpless as they look."
Out of Character: and here is where Bastion's flaws come into play, don't ever put your money on this warforged during a game of poker.

Albrecht sees the women in the room behind the bar and tries to asses how real their fear, while he doesn't take his eyes off of them. He uses Krama to her full advantage, having her help keep them corralled while he searches. He says to the ladies "My bear here will obey my orders, and right now she is just guarding you, but if you make any hostile moves she will not hesitate to tear you apart. Now answer our questions as best as you can: Are there any others? Is everyone left in the caves civilians? We have no interest in hurting innocent people, but we will defend ourselves if need be."
Out of Character: This is where low charisma bites for Albrecht. He can intimidate them plenty, but actually interacting with them is going to be more difficult. I don't know what kind of bonus you want to give for having a bear threaten them while Albrecht talks, but I will roll my intimidate and other checks unmodified and let you add whatever you think is appropriate KN. All my roles are using Albrecht's skills.
Krusten, seeing the whole affair getting out of hand steps forward shaking her head and says, "Albrecht call off your brute."
She then looks for one of the more intelligent out of the lot, someone that isn't crying uncontrollably but at least still looking to see if they can escape or bargain for their life. When she finds that one she will say, "You, yes you, come forward, I just saved your life, at least for now. Now, tell me what I want to know about this place or you will be grub for this bear."
Krusten interrogates about the place, location of everything, people inside, etc.
Albrecht calls off Krama and goes to wait just outside the door so that he nor his bear will be terrifying these pitiful people any longer. He doesn't think that there is a fighter among them as they were all cowed by his display. He waits out in the room with the bar keeping an ear out for trouble in the room with the women, but looking around to make sure someone doesn't sneak up on them while they are preoccupied.
Krusten says, "Good, now you will have one more task to accomplish and then you and your friends can have your freedom."
Krusten will then explain that she will go ahead of them and pretend to be in distress trying to get away so the enemy can show their hiding spot. She can then either hide or continue pretending until each enemy is taken out.
Krusten then looks at the others to see if they wish to question them.
In Character: Avan knows that while everyone is occupied in the cave, the gate is open and available for anyone to escape. So he stands watch with Fluffles. If the party need him, they'll shout. And besides, he can take extra time to search the area for himself later.
