| − | Gherni was a young and adventurous member of [[Arkady]]'s band. She was caught in the avalanche in the Pamirs that [[Temeraire]] caused when he used the [[Divine Wind]] to threaten the ferals. Since she was uninjured, Temeraire insisted that she help dig his crew out, after which she led Temeraire, his crew and an injured feral dragon (possibly [[Lester]]) back to Arkady's cave. | + | Gherni is a small, female member of [[Arkady]]'s tribe. She is very adventurous and is more willing to be in the presence of men because she was born in the lowlands, not in the mountains like the others. |
| | | | |
| − | Gherni had hatched in the lowlands and knew more Turkish than the other ferals, most of whom spoke only [[Durzagh]]. This enabled her to act as an interpreter for the band. She accompanied Arkady to Istanbul. Because she was more familiar with the lowland landscape than the other ferals, she had fun taunting them for being afraid. | + | Occassionally, Gherni let [[Tharkay]] ride her, though he was usually found on [[Arkady]]'s back. |
| | | | |
| − | Gherni was one of the twenty dragons who came with Arkady and [[Tharkay]] to Prussia and from there to Britain.

| |
| − | During the ferals' first patrol with Temeraire along the British coast, they were attacked by a group of French dragons. Lester and Gherni worked together to attack a [[Poux-de-Ciel|Pou-de-Ciel]]. [[Wringe]] was injured in this attack, and the other dragons took her to the [[Weymouth covert]], a rather small one. As there was not enough room in the crew quarters there for [[William Laurence|Laurence]], Lt. [[Ferris]] invited Laurence to his family's home nearby.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Later on that night, a message arrived that there was a [[Fleur-de-Nuit]] bothering the ships off Boulogne. Gherni located Laurence and Ferris, and sent a call up to Temeraire. At first, Ferris's family thought that Gherni - whose head did not come up to the second-story windows - was the dragon Ferris was assigned to. They were rather startled when Temeraire arrived shortly afterwards.

| |
| − | When Arkady's band began assisting Iskierka in capturing French ships as prizes, Gherni and Lester were small enough to land directly on the captured ships, terrifying the sailors and ensuring their cooperation.
