ysabetwordsmith:Brelig swiped his sickle toward the bleeding eyelid again -- and the deathfin grabbed him by that arm, lifting him high above the ship. The sudden shock of pain frayed his concentration. Brelig swung in the air, blood raining everywhere. Then he pulled himself upward to swing the axe into the deathfin's eye.

Yes...

If you look closely, you'll see that he wouldn't be able to reach the other eye anyway, which is accurate given the respective sizes of warwailor and deathfin. So it needs to be the injured eye on the same side he's hanging from. I believe that tweaking his arm position slightly, to make it look like he's farther back in the deathfin's mouth, should fix this.
