Not necessarily, it can just be explained as an Umiak trick. I'd bet that once that Prophet's Reason reported that to Loroi Command, they got put into isolation, under a communications black out, until such time as the situation can be verified.

Actually that stuff on the right is from Fireblade's GURPS sheet, not Beryl's.

Sorry, I should have made that clear.

That's Fireblade's sheet, not Beryl's.

Yep. I think that's probably where we're going to get the answer about what exactly happened to Fireblade during the occupation.

Doesn't the Insider mention that Greywind's flagship serves as a mobile Imperial capital?

Is Alex going to meet the Queen Bitch of the Universe?

From what we know of the Loroi that would be an accomplishment deserving special note.

Not unless Alex is at least 172 years old and has lifetime season tickets for the Cleveland Indians.

(inb4 Greywind in an Indians uniform :P)

During wartime yes.

That's a bit harsh, we don't know much about her personality yet, she could be pleasant.

IIRC Greywind is going to make an appearance in Chapter 3, given the fact that we've had probably less than an hour of on screen time so far I wouldn't be surprised to find that Chapter 3 starts before they arrive at their destination, so it's certainly possible.
