Temeraire felt there was something "peculiar" about her, as she would sit for hours and hours without saying a word, and when he would ask what she was thinking she would say she was trying not to think. This suggests, perhaps, that the Chinese encountered similar difficulties to the British when creating a breed, like the Greyling, suitable for long distance flights. | Temeraire felt there was something "peculiar" about her, as she would sit for hours and hours without saying a word, and when he would ask what she was thinking she would say she was trying not to think.
