Learning the true nature of the towers just makes that 6.0 dungeon they previewed all the more disturbing,
what with it looking to have hundreds if not thousands of people imprisoned within its numerous spires. I can only assume that's what the interior of the Garlean royal palace is going to look like by the time we get there.
I'm also assuming that some manner of anti-tempering magitek is going to be developed by then because our trusts are going to need a way to be able to help us out there.
