"On it! If you've got that shielding magic, now's the time!" Defensive tactics aren't really Skadi's style, but she's thinking more in terms of Ellana's own safety. Having some kind of buffer might prove vital against that exposure to that red lyrium substance, anyway. Giving as much room as she can get away with while they're both on a boat, she enthusiastically swings at the next tentacle, the frost rune on her blade giving her a little more of an edge. Hakkon's Valor is certainly getting good use today, and then some.
While she cleaves part of that tentacle clean off, its wild thrashing afterward nearly knocks her right off the boat. Only getting her footing at the last moment prevents a disaster. "Lady's bits, you'll pay for that!"
