[Sephiroth is -unsurprisingly- very busy drilling the small squads that he has under his authority as Captain, back to back, around the clock...anything to get them as prepared as possible for whatever incoming assault the Empire had to throw at Esdham as a distraction while they made a move for Aqures.
As such, it's about a day and a half before Lydia gets any reply. As usual, delivered directly by Spencer. It seems that someone still doesn't trust the fact that Artemicion has recently enhanced the security on the Mognet; there are many other ways that Kalki might source their messages. Not to mention as a one-time Hero of Light herself...]
Lydia,
I might be a soldier but I can offer very little in terms of advice for those feelings and concerns, as it's all I've ever really known. I was actively involved in a conflict for the majority of my young adulthood, so it's simply a way of life for me personally. [Not mentioning the relevance to Yuffie there.]
One thing is for sure, and that is that if you're scared then you need to get out. Not only will you put yourself in danger best avoided but hesitation to act out of fear might get someone else killed.
Despite Cid's advice, I imagine there are many others who want to use this to prove their mettle as Heroes and it's a fools mission. Take it from me, having witnessed a great deal of what the Empire is capable of first-hand, that the majority of people are not going to stand a chance.

Run, and live to fight another day.
