Elena hasn't considered it herself. Or maybe she has and she has almost as quickly tucked it away.
Once people died, they were supposed to stay dead. That is how it works. Then magic came, and then the rifts, and then Red Doors like these - but there are some types of hope which are too terrible to carry, some faces which Elena would give anything to see again, and that's precisely why she can't. Her parents, Jenna. The list was considerably long, and all too short at once. The sadness and the heaviness of it doesn't weigh her down like it used to, but it isn't entirely gone, either.
Maybe it never will be.
"Believe it or not, difficult isn't a stranger in mine, either," Elena adds. Thus why she had been hellbent on finding a drink for the evening.

Well, one of many reasons.
