Well... explosion magic isn't exactly the most subtle of attacks, so that would discourage most attempts at stealth.

I doubt that the old councilors would be very willing to return. Most likely they retired because they lost their self-confidence. Now seven years might have been enough for some of them to gain it back, but even so, would the magic world really accept them?

They showed themselfs to be gullible enough to let not just one, but two enemies infiltrate their midst and manipulate them like puppets and now they are to lead the magic world in an all-out war?
