We do not, and Aliera has stated flat-out that it is impossible for
Easterners and Dragaerans to breed.
To the left, there is Brigitta. I suspect - but only suspect - that
her father, a "demon", is in fact a Dragaeran (perhaps one with only
minor powers in the Empire, he finds that in the East he can be a big
shot). Aliera might simply be wrong on this, seeing as how she also
stated flat-out that there was no genetic connection between
Easterners and Dragaerans, and was later shown to be wrong by Sethra.
