As of now I can only speculate the Towers all over the world is a means to create a fake Sound since the entire goal is to recreate the Final Days. That fake Sound, from what we have seen so far, is a means to temper people into being loyal to Garlemald.

If so, then what if the original Sound was a means to temper people into summoning Zodiark before Zodiark was summoned by some unknown organization/group and this entire time the Ascians were just puppets ignorant of the true worshippers of Zodiark?
With the sound, it was more "our dread made manifest our deepest fears". Assuming Fandaniel's "piles" are replicating that effect, then it is more likely the Resistance soldier was tempered by their own fear of the Garlean Empire. (compare with E11 fight against Fatebreaker)
