He <i>may</i> have been the dragon whose wing was broken in the avalanche in the Pamirs that Temeraire caused when he used the [[Divine Wind]] to threaten the ferals. This dragon was described as being slightly larger than [[Gherni]] in size and a motley of orange, yellow and pink in colour. [[Keynes]] patched up his wing. Because of his injury, he did not accompany Arkady to Istanbul, but he was one of the twenty dragons who came with Arkady and [[Tharkay]] to Prussia. Apparently he was the thankful for the medical attention, since in the [[Siege of Danzig]], he was described as "showing himself particularly devoted, and ferrying his tiny loads of twenty men with great determination and speed." |

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. | 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. | ||
