'Snow Cloud Peak' didn't quite understand Hydra's logic... Why would a multi-headed serpent think that fighting together and suffering would establish a good friendship?
Was Toril's definition of friends too simple?
But he wouldn't think too much about it either.
Though the NPC intelligence in this game is quite high, it's unrealistic to expect every NPC to possess deep logical computation.
So 'Snow Cloud Peak' didn't care much about these Toril people acting both insidious and malicious, yet simple and blunt.
The high-tech World Without Magic naturally brought more complex social relationships, and when no one could dominate, human nature became the most terrifying weapon... 'Snow Cloud Peak' completely disagreed that Toril's odd and weird conspiracies were concocted by real people.
