He continues to destroy them one at a time. Arsenal did hear Kim. He thought it was a magical attack or that strange winged dinosaur. No- it’s another ship. He begins to run through options of containment and destruction of the ship and the warforged below. The scorrow ignore the archer and work their way on the ice. They need to dig in their piercing legs to gain purchase and not slip. The drow find the warforged difficult to damage and the armored skeleton just as hard to hit. But they do. They are stymied however as they also are unfamiliar with ice and pause at the slipperiness of its surface. The warforged strike Avireal several times in her rage.
