Gil was resting perfectly well in deeper meditation. With the help of several mages they had managed to get Gil to rest while in the state he had been. The mages were rotating out and taking the weight of the mana flowing through the connection Gil had with the tree of Unity. Akma had also rested for a day and managed to return. However, Gil refused to let her work with him.
He didn't do this because he was afraid she would burn more of her lifespan to ensure that everything went well. He did this because she had to do what Walker did and visit the other elemental spirit trees and ensure that the teams working to grow them were doing well.
She had the keen insight that would allow a better effect than what Walker could give when relaxing the worries and growth of the spirit trees. This was the same with a very small group of spirit related class users.
