Biography
Lien was believed to be cursed because she was born in "mourning colors" (since she is albino). Yongxing took her as his companion even though it meant he could not be Emperor. They apparently had a deep affection for one another. When he was killed, Lien dedicated her life to destroying Temeraire, whom she blamed. She is now in the service of Napoleon Bonaparte as an officer in France.
She made many significant changes in the French military strategy and logistics. She revolutionized transport in the army through carrying troops in dragon rigging and taught the French more effective ways of flying in formation. Also, she knew how to use the Divine Wind to shake the ground so it would be easier for the soldiers to dig trenches. During the Battle of Shoeburyness she created a huge wave sinking Nelson's fleet and giving Napoleon the chance to escape.
It is very probable that her influence on Bonaparte resulted in better treatment of dragons and huge changes in the architecture of Paris.
