I think how the conflict was resolved was that Martine went to the shipyard and bought the white giraffe out and obtained Alex and the remainder of his crew was arrested.

Theme: The theme of the story to me is any one could be a hero no mater what they are or how massive they are or how small.

This is the inciting action as a result of if Martine never went there she would not have discovered the white giraffe and had this superb adventure. Plus, it exhibits her utilizing her powers to assist animals like she has to with the white giraffe. I believe that is important because if the white giraffe wasn't there the story could be over.
