The fog was dissipating.

For the first time since the battle had begun, the dense fog that had entrenched itself over the Frost waters began to thin out—around "Sea Mist," toward Frost, from the sea's surface to the skies above, all the fog was receding at a visible rate. The all-encompassing gloom was retreating, gradually clearing the entire sea area.
