The fact that they dared to approach Violet clearly indicates an intention to recruit her; it's highly likely they've already revealed their Silvermoon Reform Association affiliation to her.
Violet refrained from making things explicit—owing to her position, she couldn't risk being explicit. Otherwise, she'd leave evidence of sheltering members of the Silvermoon Reform Association.
"Are you a member of the Silvermoon Reform Association? Or did you ask me previously to hand over anyone we locate from the Association to you because you actually wanted to protect them?"
Lanci cut straight to the point, questioning Violet.
Reflecting on his first meeting with Violet, Lanci recalled how she'd emphasized handing over any Silvermoon Reform Association members to her. Now, based on Red Falcon Nicola's logic, this might not have been driven by deep animosity toward the Association but rather as a protective measure.
If Violet turned out to be an ally, many problems could be resolved.
