Don't light the tree on fire, it could catch the barn.
Don't convert Alice yet, she's going to be better in human form than working out the kinks of being a night consort.
Don't give her the Left Stone gift without making sure she's willing to put aside her sexuality to have lots of kids.

If we're going to use the Gift of Inferno's Embrace, we need a big fire. If we don't, then our options for gifts boil down to the Gift of Amnesia which is nowhere near as combat useful.

Convert her later, right now we have an ambush to prepare for. Everyone sweep the straw over to the entrance, then board up/ cover any windows. It'll be dark enough for shadow illusions with we can use to make them attack eachother, and anyone who enters will be outlined in light and staring into darkness.. and Alice has a longbow. If any of them try torches, snuff them out with fire manipulation.

I'd say give her Pheonix.  Flying is pretty useful, if you ask me.  So is fire.  It seems like a really useful gift.  And remember, she's one of our good allies and friends, so we don't have to worry much about her leaving.
Also, what about Rox, or whatever the animal-woman is named?

Phoenix sounds fine, except that flaming wings would ruin woodcraft.
Maybe Inferno's Embrace? Geez, we really do have crappy gifts for Alice. We ought to take 20 on Plant Empathy or something...

Yeah, I mean it doesn't go very well, but it would help us against Elves, and would let her fly.
I mean, we could gifts that would better suit her, but she's human, and less likely to object burning trees down than those Elves.

If we convert her now, she will be starving at best and dissolved at worst when the elves arrive. This is really the worst possible time for this sort of thing.

Yeah, I'm thinking for afterwards.  It takes time to convert, if I remember right.
But we probably will be fighting Elves after this, still.  This is just an ambush, right?

Less than a ambush. Just a posse.

That's the word I was looking for, thanks.  I couldn't remember it, and was torn between ambush and lynch mob.

These people are going to be angry and have a group-mentality. I think we should try to use this to our advantage.

Not sure how to do that, but I guess they won't be thinking clearly?  I wonder, would it be wise to trap them in a burning ring of fire?

Divide and conquer.  Let's trap the invaders somehow (in the barn, in the trees, in a ring of fire, it doesn't matter), make sure they can't escape quickly, and use our dark manipulation, face, and other tricks to terrify and drive them into attacking each other.

Why are we talking about converting alice? If we convert anyone it should be the prisoner, we could use any ally we can get in the battle to come.

Edit: ignore the above, i missed something earlier
Tell Alice and Gwen to make an attempt to rally plantlife to our cause and create mundane traps, i'm going to stick to my suggestion of creating eon pocket traps.

Daytime is coming, our dark manipulation won't be useful.
