Leshem's Links
Leshem was originally too proud to share a pact with such a "goody-two-shoes" as Azari, considering he was quite narcissistic. After a while though the Blight Dragon found himself becoming more attached to the Galatier and based on the devotion given to protecting Surya, he even became jealous but would never admit to it. Even though he is stubborn and would never say it out loud, Leshem truly does care about Azari even beyond the pact.
Azari originally did not get along well with Leshem due to the Blight Dragon's sometimes unruly and selfish nature. However the pact they share caused the two to bond over time and become more than just friends or partners. Due to this, Azari is very protective and loves Leshem dearly.
Leshem did not care for Vera at first. Their original perception of her was that she was beneath them and unworthy of acknowledgment but after some persistence on her part she eventually managed to warm the ice around the dragon’s heart enough that the two were able to hold conversations and eventually it blossomed into friendship and now the two are quite close with Leshem frequently spending their time with Vera when Azari visits Demyan and they enjoy her company and sample her goodies she makes specifically with them in mind.
It took a lot of patience from Vera but after a while of getting the cold shoulder from Leshem they eventually warmed up to her. Now the two are very close friends and she enjoys treating them to her baking and other cooking as she’s practiced making foods that would particularly appease dragons. When Azari visits she can often be found polishing Leshem’s scales and the two of them will often chat and gossip over some snacks.
