Does Andira Runehand's Hero ability trigger Zealous Aura?

By Hendolph, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Hey guys,

I'm playing Andira Runehand as Crusader and was wondering if her hero ability can trigger the Zealous Aura skill.

Her hero ability says:

"Each time a hero within 3 spaces of you suffers 1 or more hearts from an attack, the figure that performed the attack suffers 1 heart."

Zealous Aura:

" While this card is exhausted, each time a hero within 3 spaces defeats a monster, that hero recovers 2 Heart . "


So, if the monster dies because of the damage from Andira's ability, does that count as being defeated by Andira? Will that trigger Zealous Aura?


Any thoughts?

Yes, if Andira has Zealous Aura exhausted in her turn and a monster is defeated by her Hero ability during its activation, Andira would recover 2 HP from Zealous Aura.
