Even if he were afforded the chance to examine the eggs closer, he might still have issue identifying them. Eggs incubating over extreme heat weren't rare. The rarity was a grey warden who disappeared without a trace showing up with three in her possession. Like she was caring for them. Every choice she made to accommodate the eggs told him that she meant to hatch these eggs. As a warrior vowed to protect these lands, he did not appreciate the implication of any beast being unleashed upon them.
He seethed when she grabbed him, the shock muddling his senses. He barely had time to turn before she was in front of him, blocking his view of the eggs.

A chill erupted along his spine, a hand instinctively reaching over his shoulder to grab the hilt of Hellreaver. But he hesitated, frozen in place by intrusive thoughts. It couldn't be. It was impossible.

Warden Eluvia,He said formally, as he followed her gaze to the door in back.
Whatever you've done, we can fix this. But you need to compose yourself.He held out his other hand in a way he might to a wild stallion he was trying to break, his other hand still on the hilt of his favored great sword. He widened his stance, blocking her way to the door.
Stand down Warden.
