For this scenario, My guess would be that the Eikons band together to fight off the Dalamud meteor in some way, but linking it to the geological deformations is a bit tougher. Maybe some sort of Aether "cannon" (not literally) that is controlled by the Eikons in order to prevent Meteor.
This seems like it would be pretty likely too. It would be a total throwback to FFVII, but I think it would still be pretty cool. I imagine that Dalamud will get very close to the world, and then warded off by either the Twelve, or the Primals. Which will naturally warp the world.

Alternatively, has Dalamud been outright stated to be "just" Meteor? I haven't made it through a chunk of the Grand Company storyline, so I thought I would ask.
If it hasn't, I could totally see there being a living entity inside of Dalamud, which will bring about the destruction of Eorzea as we know it. (cue mega boss)
