Lyrena tunes her mandolin as they rest, plucking some notes, creating a melody of sorts.
Song of rest: Everyone regains an extra 1 HP.
After some time, she begins to softly vocalize, half-singing words of Undercommon and Elvish. Her eyes glow for a moment, then return to normal, and she stops the music.
Vanizi finishes her rest and readies herself to move on. "We could take the captain back to the others the same way we came, I think. Then disarm the other ward on the way back?"

The party collects Inda and her broken wing, along with the various tools she could put into a small bag, and 'think' their way through the space heading towards the aft section of the ship. (Based on your two encounters in a 3-dimensional space, are you flying in a straight line, or a circle, or a sphere, or some other shape? Go ahead and describe it!)
Vanizi ends up just following Zyl, though she does comment, "Wouldn't it be better to get further away from the... 'ground' here?" She doesn't press the point though, as she's just struggling to keep up.

A large Cloaker materializes out of the surrounding silvery mist, a hunter swooping down upon its prey! Luckily for you, everybody sees it before it can surprise you!

Round 1: Inda moves to Lyrena and lays hands on the drow - "You're looking a bit peaky...fear not!" (Cure Wounds on Lyrena for Dice rolls not yet available for this section.) Vesta sends 3 rays of fire at the large aberration, hitting with all 3! Zyllynne takes a flying pass at the creature, hitting it once on the way past - but what a hit she lands! But as she goes past, the thing grabs at her with its leathery wings. (AoO: Attack: 10 Damage: 17. If it succeeds, the cloaker attaches to Zyllynne!)
Round 1 (con't): Cloaker (-51) Suddenly, there are 3 other cloakers all around you! They all seem to attack the party! (Attach Attack on 3: 23 Damage: 10; Tail attacks at 3 and 1. See Spoiler below for number assignments!)) Davis Vanizi Lyrena?
Your characters probably do not know this, but the cloaker has three phantasms (think Mirror Image spell...) It also has a 10' reach with its tail attack, and gets two of those each round!

Lyrena initiative: 18
Lyrena's eyes begin to glow, blindingly white against her dark skin. She opens her mouth--and roars.
Tale of the Brute: All of the cloakers must make a DC 17 Strength save or take 21 thunder damage and be knocked prone. On a save, they take half damage and aren't knocked prone.
(The way I read this feature is that you have to roll on the table to see which Tale you can use. "...you can use a bonus action to expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration and roll on the Spirit Tales table using your Bardic Inspiration die to determine the tale the spirits direct you to tell." In other words, you don't get to choose which one to use. Unless I missed something? I will keep your action to keep things moving, though =)
Cloaker DC17 STR saves: 18 <> 4 <> 14 <> 9

Zyl doesn't remember much, so she's making a bee (fairy) line for the aft of the ship (and comments again why they're using bad words like "aft").
Vanizi ends up just following Zyl, though she does comment, "Wouldn't it be better to get further away from the... 'ground' here?" She doesn't press the point though, as she's just struggling to keep up.

Zyl floats by the cloaker and swings as she passes by.
Attack 1: 12 to hit (I assume this misses)
Attack 2: Nat 20 for 25 slashing damage
Zyl will take the opportunity attack to keep float by the menace and toward the other end of the ship.
