(The idea that losing them left her with more than just physical scars filled her with sudden, private dread.)
When Alexstrasza mentioned Krasus, and likeliest reasons for his choice, the human woman paled, eyes widening slightly.

Even without Eta and Iota, she could still fight, could still do what the Director needed her to. She had to find Texas, damn it, and take care of things..!
Things that were out of her reach while she was stuck here. "Family trouble, is it?" Her voice was a little flat, and for a moment, she struggled to keep her breathing calm and even. "Given the battle we just left, seemed like most dragons were getting along just fine."
