Shade did not arrive on Fatumonst Island until noon that day. Although he had learned from the Lover of Desire that the Second Fate Impact would occur that afternoon, no one knew the exact time. Based on the information Shade had provided, the Seer Association performed a divination, but could only narrow it down to between three and five o'clock.

However, this time they also had the Fatu People, the Winter Hymn Choir, and the elves as allies, so the rings and Bent Arcs could not simply remain on the ship.
Luvia and Bella were responsible for arranging where the rings and Bent Arcs would go. Luvia did mention to Shade that the Fate Base should also be able to protect people from the Fate Impact, but Shade did not agree to bring that relic over:
