Chapter 10 of Taltos:

He nodded and continued to stare at the pedestal. I said, trying to sound casual, "Know any
Dzurlords who've come this way?"

"Sethra," he said.

I blinked. "I thought she was a Dragon."

"I didn't spend all those years playing D&D and not learn a little something about courage."
