Maybe, since some one is talking about the Hildibrand bubble, I think the bubble is maybe not there. Maybe all the events with Hildibrands craziness, are just ignored. Like people hear about and say ' Na that can't happen, lets forget about it" or someone does believes it but doesn't want to touch it even with a 10 foot stick. Maybe people are thinking " Okay there's way to much craziness going on, maybe we should just stick with the craziness that can actually kill me", so the main story stuff is tolerated while Hildibrand is ignored and locked away in the back of the mind( I love Hildibrand btw).
