Your dragon will feel towards you, in time, as a soul mate, much like a spouse, and great care should be taken in dealing with and caring for the spiritual and emotional needs of your dragon.

Some of them have quite clear descriptions and functions (as Veja mate – Mother of Winds, Zemes mate – Mother of Soil/Land, Velu mate – Mother of the Dead Souls (veli), etc.), the others are mentioned just
a couple of times or even just once.
