Arialla nodded at the woman asking her to return to the sky and keep an eye out -- that was her plan anyway. It would probably be smart to establish some kind of signaling so that Arialla didn't have to land on the ship and verbally convey everything, but was there time? She could circle over where the whales were, but no, the sky was too dark for her brown feathers to stand out. Attuned telepathy? As far as she was aware, it only worked when someone was in animal shift, at least for new Attuned like her.
But it was probably their best bet. "If anyone here is Attuned, I can speak to them when transformed -- that'll be quicker than landing."
Then Arialla changed forms and took off without seeing if anyone (Neos perhaps) took her up on the offer. Gaining altitude, she watched the cannons go off -- and watched them strike the starwhale. Oh no, no, no -- the Ark was under attack and the starwhale's situation looked dire, and she didn't know if she could help without putting herself in considerable danger. She could land on the starwhale and try to cut the membrane, but only with her talons -- she didn't have so much as a belt knife on her. And she really did not want to get in the water with those ghost whales.
Two ghost whales are trying to pull the starwhale down, she projected telepathically, unsure if anyone could hear her. The other one is, as you may have noticed, beneath you. Don't hit the starwhale!
Arialla offers to use her telepathy to send word to the Ark, but she's not sure if there are any Attuned on board who can hear her (or if they'd have to be in animal shift to do so).
Then she takes her eagle form again and flies over the scene, trying to telepathically project information about the ghost whales' positions.
