What Retsukuu didn't account for his that Equestrian ships have remote self destructs that don't need to activate. Escape pods fled from the 40,000 has the erupted in a giant explosion. The other ships quickly spread out as various Archmages got together and formed a magical field, attempting to repulse Retsukuu away from the ship. Faust had not yet intervened, but watched the situation closely. The ships spread out from eachother, far enough away that if one was afflicted by the possession thing again it could not jump from ship to ship.
