Mephiles tries to call out to the Darkness without connecting to it, trying to calm it, and explain that it's host was old and wanted to die. It could find a new host or something.

Any form of connection seems impossible without a Host. The mind of the darkness is simply too vast and spread-out to hear the calls of a single living mind, and even if they had been loud enough, the Darkness by nature drowned out living thought that reached it. Thousands of massive hand reached down, stomping down on the surface of the planet, ripping it to pieces, as mountains are picked up and shattered, and oceans emptied out.
