Zale wakes up to Grog yelling nearby. He can taste blood in the water, most of it his own. Without surfacing, he spots Magda waving the baby about. Zale longs to take the hag out and reclaim the babe, but seeing Phillip bleeding out and drowning, he decides to help the man out first. Zale hauls Phillip towards the wreck, then slaps him hard on the face.

Jack, ever the nimble sailor, hooks a toe under the haft of the axe and kicks it through the air to Grog, even as he leans back to take a stab at the captain as the weresharkataur runs towards his seaweedy self.
That attack out of the way, and the axekicking done, he charges towards the simulacrum, unleashing his full batch of stabbing slashing fury on the flora-based foe.

Jack's aim is just a tiny bit off, and Grog fails to catch the axe. But he reaches over and easily retrieves the weapon, and is amazed to find that he can easily swing it even underwater!
But Grog now has the sharktooth greataxe and can make his Extra Attack with it (no disadvantage for fighting in the water!) if he moves back into melee range.

Jack, your scimitar strikes took out the simulacrum. So your handaxe attack could have been aimed at Valrakas if you wish. Or you could have done something else with your bonus action. Grog still has his extra attack with the sharktooth greataxe if he wants to take it (see above). After that, it's the baddies' turn again.

Jineer and Jack take cheap shots at Valrakas as he charges past to bull-rush his seaweed duplicate. (Jineer: 4 piercing + 4 poison; Jack: 6 piercing. Then, Ian and Jack literally wade into the melee in knee-deep water, and rain down strikes on both of the horned combatants, (Jack: 6+11 piercing vs. Salad, 3 slashing vs. Val; Ian: 3 slashing vs. Val) but not before Jack kicks the megalodon tooth greataxe towards Grog. The simulacrum is turned into chopped salad
Having just tagged Magda on the shoulder with a javelin throw before getting his hands on the sharktooth axe, Grog swims back towards the hag with a big swing. But even though he puts his rock-hard buttocks into the swing, he misses with the strange weapon.
Meanwhile, even though her vision is swimming from losing so much blood again, Doc Nela spares a healing spell for Zale before she withdraws from the battle and heads below deck, where she shifts to her more bestial form. (Zale gains 11hp. Nela shifts, gains 9 temp hp)
Zale regains consciousness and drags Phillip to the wreck to administer some unorthodox first aid (Phillip is now stable). Looking up, he comes face to face with the raging weresharkotaur captain standing over the floating debris of what once was the salad simulacrum.
Jineer and Duplineer step forward and attempt to lift the lycanthropy curse from Valrakas... and it works!!! The minotaur spasms violently as the sharktail recedes into his arse, and the shark-face changes back into the familiar, bullish scowl.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" comes the familiar bellow of rage, "WHERE THE HELL ARE WE, AND WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS GOING ON?!"
Finally admitting defeat, Magda and Lilith both disappear - Lilith in a cloud of ink and swimming away, Magda going invisible again, taking baby Lena with her. (Lilith: Dash action, now 80ft away. Magda: invisible, but you can hear Baby Lena's muffled crying about 40ft away.)

Lilith and Zale are currently underwater, so Nela can't see them. Magda is invisible, but Nela knows she was last seen roughly 30ft off the shipwreck's port rail (basically, near the foot of stone stairway). Lena's crying echoes all over the cavern, so it's hard to get a good fix, but it does seem like it's coming from that direction.
What effect all this does have on this battle is that you guys have been climbing aboard from the water via the submerged stern...
[ +- ] To refresh your memory
Quote:
The steps lead down the inside of the cleft, affording a good view of the cove while staying unseen. And yet, all the way down, you can't shake the feeling of being watched. At the bottom you find a huge, wave-battered cavern big as a shipyard. In fact, there's a half-sunk schooner here, its bow angled upwards. It must've run aground here years ago. The stone stairs descend into the churning water. It's a 40-foot swim to the wreck, or a 100-foot swim to the rocky ground in the far end of the cavern.Quote:
By the dim light you can also make out a narrow stone ledge, shin-deep underwater, that runs along the cavern wall. There are gaps in it, but nothing that can't be jumped across as far as you can tell. It would be a circuitous route but with luck, it might get you to the rocks.Jabes.plays.RPG says:
A note on the position of the wreck: In case it's not clear from the description, the cave looks a little bit like the first photo below, but the wreck is angled crazily upward like in the second photo. The ship's stern is submerged in water, and the prow sticks up. The deck is steeply angled, and I considered treating this as difficult terrain, but this combat is already complicated enough so we're just hand-waving it.
