"Can't say I feel the presence of any casters on the pier, they're likely disguising their scents with the saltwater... But for now, I'm too busy holding Ganishka off!"
"That's fine, keep him at bay!" You signal for Hyde to fire away as everyone enters the Caravan, nearly breaking as the space became too tight for anyone else to move an inch.
As the Od flow of your enemies become closer, your perception of them is muddled by the countless explosions as Hyde fires Rickert's cannon several times in a row. Giving you enough of a signal to run as fast as possible.
The dakas aren't blind, they can see the trajectory of the explosions and would easily jump away from the pier, were it not for Farnese and Schierke's aid in possessing and confusing several of the tiger Pishacas. Fighting against their own mount, they lose too much time hurting their own troops and are powerless to move away from Gunpowder's speeding assault. Every bump and crash into the road is enough to nearly break the arm of the people inside the caravan.

"A few more north, and we can reach it, though since it's so close to that cloud monster, I'm not sure if--"
Before the captain of Ys could voice his worries, over 10 Makara surrounded the ships as you've realized the ship you crashed into was the one belonging to the casters of Ganishka's army.
"The conqueror of the seas shall not be the savages who dare to destroy our nation. Though your different teachings and learning of magic negation is intriguing, my duty is not to study, but to halt you." A floating caster with his hair wrapped in a turban remains in a meditating position above the ship as his crew evacuates, cornering you from escaping in any directions.
