Most unfortunately, people calling out to Ramza didn't seem to be helping in any ways. Any attack delivered against the possessed knight resulted in the now familiar phasing out effect and it didn't seem his consciousness would overcome Kalki's. As the floating platform crumbled Garland's and Kalki's corpses fell into the abyss and soon, Ramza-Kalki himself fell as well, without trying to move away from the crumbling platform. Anyone clinging onto him for a reason or another will fall into the abyss as well. The rest of the platform had only seconds left before crumbling entirely.

Going up the stairs, they would find the entirety of Pandaemonium and the Imperial City slowly collapsing and crumbling as the earthquake's intensity grew. The soldiers were already retreating and only the potion-selling soldier and a moogle with him weren't running away yet. They greeted all the Heroes of Light coming from the stairs with a simple sentence, pointing toward the exit.

"Go! Get to the airship!"

Meanwhile, the situation on the Enterprise was hardly better. The ship was shaking as it was still landed close to the imperial city and most of the crew seemed to panic, with Cid yelling out orders to the crew members left and right while holding the wheel, as the first Heroes of Light started appearing on the airship.

"I said we're not going till they're all back." Then noticing whoever were the first Heroes to have appeared. "Speak of the devils. The hell's happened down there!?"
