Your action in Ilos have more than kickstarted a chain reaction that would take either gargantuan effort from Griffith's apostles to take down, or stupendous incompetence from Barnham's behalf.
And given the possibility that Zodd somehow wins their duel and kills the remaining lord, the soldiers would do their best to finish him off while he's still standing.
Trust in Ilos, and Ilos will remain united. If there's anything worth seeing, Kalki will contact you first.
Seeing Serpico relaxing in the Ship's nest, he interacts with a nameless crewmate who is surprised on how the Sylphs act.
"There's such a nice breeze whenever we come up here..."
"Thanks for coming up so early. For some reason, a good wind always blows whenever you stand here. Smooth sailing makes a good voyage, you're a great help to us sailors."
"Really? Hah, I'm glad to be of service."
"Skipping over your astral projecting lessons, you warn Schierke and Farnese of your premonitions, to which they both take with extreme caution."
"I was hoping we could use our luminous body to finally summon a spirit together..."
"Now is not the time! If Vlad's premonitions have been proven right, then priorities should shift along with the spirits!"
Not long after, Casca's chest is seen bleeding as Guts leaves a red trail coming from his mark of the beast. With Puck keeping the Behelit on hold as it hopped and shook around the Seahorse, your eyes wandered to the clouds, who formed the shape of the hound inside the Dark Swordsman!
"What is this sensation?" Casca's skin starts to turn green as Schierke hurriedly looks for the stash of Mandragoran Essence
"Some unbelievable calamity is taking place from the southeast!"
"But that's where Ilos is situated--"
Your thought process is obscured as Kalki comes with his breaking report through telepathy.
"LORD VLAD! I HAVE MANAGED TO CONTACT SILAT! WE HAVE ESTABLISHED A TREAT TO JOIN TOGETHER WITH ILLOS, BUT-- AAAAH!"
"STAY WITH ME KALKI! WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT THERE?"
"I AM TRYING TO PERCIEVE THE WORLD THROUGH LORD BARNHAM'S EYES. HE IS WHERE THE SHIVA HAS FORMED! HOLDING HIS PAW AS IT TRIES TO SMASH THE CREATURE WHO LAYS IN THE CLOUDS!"
"I THOUGHT HE WAS BUSY FIGHTING ZODD!"
"HE HAS BESTED ZODD IN COMBAT! BUT I DO NOT SEE WHERE HE IS! THE FALCON OF DARKNESS SEEMS TO HAVE FLOWN UP TO MEET HIM, BUT HOW COULD-- NO! GET AWAY--"
"KALKI!? ANSWER ME! KALKI?!"
Kalki does not respond, try as you might, no sort of connection appears to be reestablished as you are shut off from the world, as if you could never use your powers.
