Several flimsy possibilities.

Maybe the survivors got "kicked out" by Tamamo once she woke up. Maybe the spell threw them overboard. Maybe they somehow managed to wral out of the caste and get rescued by a third party.

But yeah, "how they got out" is a way too frequent oversight in stories, and this one suffer it.
