Once the trials were over, James didn't waste any time and rushed Adrian to the director's office on the tower's highest floor.
Adrian was taken aback by their hastiness, as he wanted to watch the rest of the trials. However, the DRA had no time to waste and acted quickly. The trials were over, and the recordings were made public as per the protocol.
Having seen the recordings, the hungry guilds were rushing to the gates, and not even the DRA could keep them out of the tower anymore. Not legally, at least. But they could delay the inevitable, and that's what they had done.
They knew every guild would be after Adrian and his team as soon as they set foot inside. That's why they only had a few minutes to offer Adrian the best deal under the sun and convince him to join them. Though unlikely, they had to shoot their shot and hope for the best.
