That would be interesting.

Now then, it's about time we thought about "turning" points in the upcoming Island War (well technically it started off once the Ghosts came back to Rabona to kick off their rebellion). I've thought of a few we've already seen.

1. Capture of Organization's "Eye", No. 6, Renee
-essentially this is doubly damaging for the Organization...not only does it give Riful a way to completely shift the balance of power on the island, but it also takes away a strong fighter & skilled observer upon whom the Organization depends for its intelligence

2. Miata/Clarice deserting the Organization
-While it is still too early to say that they are on the Ghosts' side, they seem to have deserted the Organization completely. Still it seems likely they'll fight alongside the Ghosts with Galatea helping, and consequently their strength robs the Organization of both a potential new No 1 & also dramatically strengthens the Ghosts' fighting power.

So far the Ghosts have been the only faction to gain more power. Riful may yet gain dramatically more power as part of the "Western Abyssal(s)" faction if she can awaken a new Abyssal One.

The question has to be, if just a few more single digits join the Ghosts (I'd guess No 6 Renee might), then when do we reach tipping point? When do the Ghosts' equal the Organization in strength? What happens when the Organization realizes it's being overpowered? Does it call in backup when that happens or do their enemies intervene as Rubel suggested when they're at a "suicidal" level?

As for Riful, how big a threat would her faction be if she had a new Abyssal ally to the Organization, Alicia & Beth? How big a threat to the Ghosts or the Southern Abyssals?
