You're assuming she is cognizant of what goes on in other timelines divergent to the one she exists in and understands all the branching timeways. The way I see it, the Hydealyn of the 8UC timeline for all we know made the exact same choices as our Hydealyn up to the point their WoL died because to them they were in the only timeline. Or how would you explain 8UC timleine Hydealyn knowing they are 8UC timeline Hydealyn?
