After getting up, Jak receives a communication from Kirkan, who tells him to return back to the battle as soon as possible if he wants to join the Immortals. As you proceed down the side of the cliffs, you will pass an overgrown fallen Colossal and see a Rasharnian ship flying off to the north. Continue down the cliffs. There will be a small combat in a canyon, and a larger one in the ruins after it.
