As for the actions of Rhode and her extreme antipathy toward me -- show me one example of a female, in history, who rose through the ranks to be a leader among her people, who's prejudice against a group was so murderous that she would turn upon a former pupil who was found to have 'tainted blood'.
To be honest, I cannot think of any times in history when a human female leader (because, you know, there are just so many records of female leaders) has not turned on one of her former pupils, when that pupil has turned into a flying, fire-breathing reptile.
