At the price of half of his mana, Zaos managed to open the path in the enemies' formation even more by messing with the mobility of fifteen ships, but that wasn't their goal. Their goal was to find Ferdinand and kill him. Orleand told them what kind of ship Ferdinand mostly used, but they were no signs of any ship that had a trident in their flags. As time was passing, their whole situation was becoming more dangerous since more ships were chasing them.
"What are the chances that Ferdinand isn't with his main fleet, after all?" Drannor asked.
"He wouldn't run away now of all times," Orleand said. "I didn't confirm that yet, but I heard that those four people that we're seeing with him in Noemi's birthday parts haven't been seen in weeks. He probably killed them in order to become the absolute ruler of Vezar… he is betting all his money on this battle."
