:I was just about to ask this. Ha. Talking about it over on the Celestial talk page. I don't think it is the case. --- [[User:Strangerface|Strangerface]] 17:34, 15 August 2010 (PDT) | :I was just about to ask this. Ha. Talking about it over on the Celestial talk page.

:: On further consideration, perhaps the user that linked Grandfather and Xian assumed the name "Grandfather" meant he was literally Temeraire's grandfather, and thus had to be the same dragon as Qian's sire. But it could just as easily be a term of endearment. Or he may be Qian's grandfather, and thus Temeraire's great-grandfather? -- [[User:Strangerface|Strangerface]] 17:41, 15 August 2010 (PDT) | :: On further consideration, perhaps the user that linked Grandfather and Xian assumed the name "Grandfather" meant he was literally Temeraire's grandfather, and thus had to be the same dragon as Qian's sire.

: I suppose the reasoning behind it comes from Qian counting off her family, she mentions "besides Grandfather and Chu", and prior to that she has mentioned Xian, Grandfather & Chu. Of course, she is referring to the remaining dragons, so Xian could have died. However, I find I prefer Xian as "Grandfather" (which he would technically be to Qian, if my current table is right), and Ming or Zhi (probably Ming, as she listed him first) as Qian's father. Plus, I think the page is gone now, but a while back someone had pointed out that "Xian" meant first, or beginning, or something that suited Grandfather, being the first of their Celestial Dynasty. | : I suppose the reasoning behind it comes from Qian counting off her family, she mentions "besides Grandfather and Chu", and prior to that she has mentioned Xian, Grandfather & Chu.
