Hilbert and his two students quickly reached a consensus... at least in the ears of those who were listening, after encountering the inexplicable undead attacks, this newly promoted Seventh Order Mage finally determined his stance towards the Sia Tower.
Indeed, no one can prove that these undead attacks are related to the Sia Tower... but to launch a surprise attack directly on a team led by the Ninth Ring Archmage from the Tower of Dark Enigma on this road is abnormal.
It must be either related to the Sia Tower or to the enemies of the Sia Tower... but the common point is that the Sia Tower let this happen.
As a disciple of Archmage Ruth, the famously indifferent, somewhat irritable, and slightly capricious Gilbert, making such a decision now, is his calmest and most normal response.
In any case, it means closely following in Ruth's footsteps, without establishing any relationships beyond 'familiarity' with anyone outside of any faction.
