Well, no, not exactly; Esteban can sort of pinpoint what he'd expect to be different and what he thinks might be a missing piece of the puzzle. The dragons he knows are the most selfish creatures in the world; to think them utterly selfless seems bizarre to him.
But he's not here to criticize her heroes, and he's not about to break down the world that she knows from his own understanding of his. First-- first things first, she really, really looks like she could use a hug.
So Esteban gets closer and sits down next to her, watching over her gently. Carefully, he wraps an arm around her to delicately pull her just a little closer, a quiet, soft hold at first, giving her plenty of room to protest.
"Is this okay?" he asks too, because he's not sure how Najaran might perceive that-- he's a cuddly person to begin with, but she looks upset and he doesn't want to make it worse. But he's there if she needs a shoulder. He's there if she could use a hug and some comfort.
Just giving her a chance to react before he goes on
