Mental characteristics
Personal history
Leena was born to Bizzy Hayell three days after Nereia Zazerac gave birth to Alice Zazerac. As such, they were raised together as part of Bizzy's nanny duties. She was a close friend of Alice, sharing most of their lives. Their favorite game was 'raid the larder,' where they would climb trees, knock holes in beehives and run away. When one girl would distract the bulk of the swarm, the other would circle back and collect honey and combs and flee. Initially, they would eat these raw, but Bizzy taught them a recipe for ashcake honey cookies that they would forever associate with the good times.
When Alice fled Krezzym, she attempted to convince Leena to flee. Leena was too frightened of the wilderness, and remained behind. Alice's flight devastated her as much as her own mother's contemporaneous disappearance.
Her Becoming was a nightmare. She was tasked with protecting a diplomatic mission to the Northrealm. While she technically succeeded by virtue of bringing the diplomat home alive, the rest of the retinue was slain when the Northern men took issue with a veiled threat and steel was drawn.
When Alice fled, Leena was raised by Gormly Zazerac under the assumption that Alice would be back for her friend. After years of being used as bait by Gormly, he decided to marry her.
