We haven't gotten the answer to it yet, but it is possible that Linza had discovered the Dragonkin's true technique to harnessing "Dragon Metal", not the cruder Orichalkum.
Also note that the Dragonkin ... they really don't like anyone ... heck, half the time, they don't even like themselves.
Finding out that a "lesser being" went rummaging around their stuff, and your species has a hair trigger (justifiably tbh), that's a pretty good recipe for getting on someone's kill list.
Plus Linza may have stumbled across other things that she didn't realize what they were.
