This is almost definitely me putting way too much thought into a moment that Brennan just did in passing, but it's one that is important TO ME, which is the little moment between Hero and Thaisha in the Archanade during convergence. The one where Hero tells Thaisha about un-petrifying Cyd and says "I've done something Shadia hasn't"
It just speaks so much to the love and support and closeness of the Lloy-Fang-D'vyen family. "I've done something Shadia hasn't" is like, very classic and normal and lowkey sibling rivalry. And she has 0 qualms expressing this to Shadia's mom! She has no fear of being shut down or shamed, she doesn't spare
any worry that Thaisha might be cold to her in response.
And we see that trust immediately born out in the fact that Thaisha laughs and even says she likes this energy! There's no weirdness, it's just warmth.
Hero says it's good to see her. Thaisha congratulates her on being at the Penteveral. This is a family and they are so, so fond of each other.
