I see the woods being about 30 feet from the tent, which is in a small clearing, and they are hiding behind trees in the woods.  Jaio has likely been able to go out of the fire light with his swords, and is now in the woodlands able to sneak up behind them.  You are right, I did fail to describe the sceene properly, and for that I am sorry.  I did say been a while since I GM'd online.
