Red Young is a bounty hunter from the forts on Threnody.[1]

Appearance and Personality

Red wears fine clothing typical of fortfolk, including a hat, and he carries a knife and a cudgel.[1] He rides a horse while in the Forests of Hell.[1] He seems to have a smug attitude, and Silence Montane mentions his fake-looking grin.[1]

History

Red mentioned that he had been tracking Chesterton Divide for four months. He and and his group of seven other bounty hunters from the forts pursued Silence and William Ann Montane while they were hunting Chesterton hoping to collect the bounty on his head. A scout in Red's group named Tobias found the pair after they had killed Chesterton and his gang, and Red and his team soon approached them, armed for a fight. To avoid a confrontation, Silence allowed Red's gang to take the corpse, and assumed that Theopolis had tipped them off to her location. Silence then pursued them and set a trap with her grandmother's firestarter to get the corpse back.[2] Shades were drawn to the fire and killed all of the bounty hunters and disfigured Red. Red then intercepted Silence and William Ann and took the latter hostage in exchange for the corpse. Before Red could leave, Theopolis shoots him in the shoulder with a padded crossbow bolt, causing his knife to draw blood from William Ann and draw the attention of the Shades. As he attempts his escape, he shoves William Ann through a Shade, then runs and is killed by the Shades.[2]
