Two of the other frost giant lob some nets at Gruff, attempting to bring the griffon down onto the deck of the ship.
Net Attack: 17 Hit: the target is restrained until it escapes the net.
The giants hit by Nirzeg and Lydia's spells retaliate with two more pieces of salvage, and are joined by two more giants. Lydia and Nirzeg have 3/4 cover (+5 AC) from these attacks as long as they remain on the airship, though the airship can't take much more of a beating without falling apart.

The eighth giant is piloting the greatship, steering directly for the stone docks of Fireshear. The ship is now 200 feet from the docks.
Val & his motley flying crew are 150 feet away from the ship.
As Whisper descends the stairs towards the docks, he passes a few workers who were still out in the cold, and who are now frantically making for the relative safety of their underground homes.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
All 3 Sprites try to attack the giant steering on the ship with their bows, the rest of the creatures and Val stay put, waiting for a moment to strike. As Vall prepares to produce a giant wave to knock the giants over once the ship comes near enough (120ft) to him.
On a hit, the creature has to make a DC10 CON save or be poisoned for 1 minute, if the saving throw is 5 or lower, the poisoned target becomes unconscious for the same duration.
Tidal Wave: Once the ship goes in range, everyone on the ship must make a DC15 DEX save, on a failed save, it deals 27 bludgeoning damage and falls prone, on a successful save, it takes half damage and does not fall prone
"Frickenzy! This wasn't what I--Ah forget it!"Nirzeg leaps on board much to his own personal chagrin, and with the expectations of the storm caller to follow. Whether she does or not however, he calls back to the ship, "Alright! Get out of here! We'll call you back when we need you!" She shouts, but as turned to face the giants arrayed before him, he muttered the words, "Assuming we survive this shit."
A reluctant Zeek in all his grey-furred and spotted form flutters on beside Nirzeg. Upon uttering some arcane words and feeding Zeek a pepper, the cat's eyes turn more draconic as thin trails of smoke began emitting from his mouth. "Now you know what to do." He shoos the beast on forward. But, long before Zeek got to the cusp of range, Nirzeg puts a hand to the temple and utters one last arcane phrase meant to disrupt and conjure pain in the oil soaked giant's.
Just in time for a drive by from Zeek to drive by and release a breath of flames from just at 15ft above it, before then finding a spot away to at least land on the boat in relative safety.
Action: Cast (Cantrip)Mind Sliver on oil soaked Giant, inflicting 10 Psychic damage on a failed Int Save(DC 14), and subtracting 4 off their next save.
Action(Zeek): Unleash Draco Breath on oil soaked giant (and at least one other giant if possible with a 15ft cone), inflicting 5 fire damage. Half as much on a successful Dex Save(DC 14).
(@DM: By Raw, a single flask of oil once lit does 5 points of fire damage. Not sure if you would have the giant take more from having multiple smashed into him, but thought I'd bring it forward.)

Whisper leaves the docks and tuns to a better fighting point against the Giants. Being a Melee fighter, this is the best course of action to assist these strange new adventurers. Halcyon is prepared to Help and the Swashbuckling Taxabi is ready to fight and disengage, and give those giants something else to think about.

Zeek targets two giants with the new fire breath ability. One of the giants manages to avoid most of the fire, but the giant covered in oil has no such luck. The oil goes up immediately, immolating the giant. He bellows in pain and stumbles about blindly, as he is burned alive with the withering flames.

As the greatship nears the docks, Whisper and Vall can make out powerful oars that are propelling the ship over the fog-laden, icy sea. The oars protrude from the lower deck of the ship.Nirzeg's frost giant, ablaze and screaming, trips and tumbles over the side of the ship. Meanwhile, the giant that has been going toe-to-toe with Tomac is caught completely off-guard by a tidal wave which, coming out of nowhere, slams into two of the frost giants. Tomac's opponent is knocked out and falls off the ship to follow his burning compatriot, while the giant just next to him is also swept off his feet by the great wave, and topples overboard. The greatship sways back and forth on the wake created by the magical tidal wave, and then the wave is gone, dissipating back into the relatively calm sea.
5 more frost giants are left on the deck. Lydia are Nirzeg are on the aft section, while Tomac is at the fore. There are three giants near Lydia and Nirzeg, who are within 60 feet of each other, and two near Tomac (within 30 feet). The ship is now 100 feet from the Fireshear docks, and bearing down on the flying Vall.
Two of the frost yell at each other, "mages!" and make to capture Lydia and Nirzeg, while another charges at Tomac, brandishing an axe like the first one! The fourth again tries to catch Tomac's griffon mount in a thrown net. The fifth, who was directing the ship in to port, hollers directions to the oars below deck and abandons the helm to toss a piece of debris at the incoming Vall, in an apparent attempt to knock him off his flying broom.

Nirzeg scoffs as the net comes up short of even reaching him. "Mage? I am not some mere ******* conjurer of cheap tricks! But here! Allow me to help burn that thought out of that thick skull of yours."Just as he reached into his pack to pull out another flask of oil, he notices the dire straits the barbarian was in to and grimaces. "But today is your lucky day it seems." He states as he flung the next oil.
Except as he narrowed his focus on it and barked out a command in some alien tongue, some invisible force seizes it mid-air for a moment, before causing it rocket in the direction of a gaint attack Tomac. Not long after Zeeks is telepathically bid to nevertheless burn the hopefully oil splashed giant in fire.
Action: Cast (3rd level)Propolsor on bandolier of Oil Flasks(1). Giant attacking Tomac needs to make Dex Save(DC 14) or take 24 bludgeoning damage and be covered in oil. (if a miss, Giant Ship takes the damage and is covered in oil instead.)
