'''Lemex''' is an [[Idrian]] merchant
[[Vivenna]] and [[Parlin]] arrange to meet with him when they arrive in T'Telir. Instead they are met by his employees, two mercenaries named [[Denth]] and [[Tonk Fah]]. The men take Vivenna to see Lemex, who is bed-ridden, feverish and pale. Denth claims Lemex has merely fallen ill, but the [[Breaths]] the man had accumulated while living in T'Telir, some five hundred of them, render him immune to all disease. In reality Denth had been poisoning Lemex for some time{{book ref|wb|35}}. Lemex regained lucidity long enough to give his Breaths to Vivenna, despite her protests, then, having lost the Breaths' resistance to poison, he soon died{{book ref|wb|10}}.
Denth claims that Lemex was embezzling from Idris, a claim the paperwork in Lemex's house substantiates. King Dedelin funded the purchase of fifty Breaths for Lemex, which gave the man access to [[Court of Gods|court]] assemblies, and Lemex began fudging numbers in his expense reports, pocketing the extra money and using much of it to buy more and more Breaths for himself{{book ref|wb|13}}{{book ref|wb|14}}.
