This is a short story in the Temeraire universe set before the events of the first novel & available online. 

I found the start to be a little slow and I wasn't sure I had found the right item when I went looking for it, but by the end I was just as invested as always when it comes to Novik's work!

This is a short story available on Naomi Novik's website. 

It's a super cute, light hearted little anecdote about the dragons you come to know and love through the Temeraire series of novels.
