With no further instructions from the captain Princess has an idea to try and be useful while flying. Using the ships voice projection system, Princess starts singing trying to intimidate the rival crew.

[Squid Attack phase:]
"Ignore that noise! We're not stuck here with them, they're stuck here with us!" The Githyanki captain yells as the ship unleashes another volley of ballista and crossbow bolts; the latter fire at the taunting Thri-kreen and the wizard that attacked their captain. [Ballista vs Hammerhead: 1619 piercing damage Ballista vs Ballista: 1411 piercing damage Light crossbow vs Da'Kal: 10 for 8 piercing damage Light crossbow vs Icarus: 16 for 8 piercing damage]
[Foundling Attack phase: Da'Kal, Icarus and Eris are up (Eris I assume you fire the ballista again? in which case same roll as last time)]
Three more magic darts hit the captain, who is now badly injured, but fortunately for her Da'Kal's javelin gets caught in the rigging. A direct hit from Eris badly damages the enemy's forward ballista, while the rest of your crewmates concentrate the crossbow fire on the crew of their aft ballista. [Light crossbow vs Crewmate 4: 8 for 8 piercing Light crossbow vs Crewmate 5: 13 for 2 piercing Light crossbow vs Crewmate 6: 11 for 5 piercing]

Eris' anger against a githyanki crew has ramped up so much that she doesn't listen or respond to Zoide's orders for once and keeps firing the ballista (even though she knows it's a simulator and not the real thing funny enough). Ironically she's still focusing on the spot that the autognome commanded her to hit.

The githyanki crew look momentarily uncertain as they watch their captain retreat from the deck, accompanied by Princess's continued singing and Icarus's taunt. One of the crossbow wielders turns and follows the captain below, and the rest seem to somewhat recover their resolve and continue their assault.

One enemy ballista bolt hits the Foundling's ballista, doing some serious damage to it, but it's still just operational enough for Eris and the crew to return fire, their own bolt slamming into the enemy's forward ballista, shattering it to splinters! [One down!]

Meanwhile, belowdecks on the Squid ship: the githyanki crewmate follows his captain into the captain's cabin. There's a muffled exchange of words, then an exchange of swords, and only the new captain emerges, wiping blood from his blade.
Eris follows Captain Zoide's commands but she's too distracted to say anything else.
