Lightsong the Bold, also known as god of bravery, was a Returned revered as a god by the people of Hallandren.[1]

Before being Returned, he was Stennimar, an accountant often employed to discover fraud or embezzlement. He died rescuing his drowning niece, Tatara, who fell off the Red Panther during a storm.[2] He became a Returned with Llarimar, his brother, as his High Priest.

Lightsong was one of the Returned Gods with the duty and responsibility of security phrases to control ten thousand Lifeless, a quarter of Hallandren's army.

At the time of the Pahn Kahl rebellion Lightsong had been Returned for five years, and was one of the younger divinities in the Court of Gods.

In his early life Lightsong associated with other Returned of the Court, having a seemingly close relationship with Calmseer - whom he was rumoured to have slept with. Lightsong regarded Calmseer, and some of the Gods of this period, with reverence.

In his later life his most notable relationship with another Returned was Blushweaver. Whilst their conversations were highly flirtatious, this relationship never became physical in nature, much to Blushweaver's indignation due to her belief that the rumours that Lightsong had previously slept with Calmseer.

Following his discovery of a skill for interrogation; Lightsong discovered he had various skills that he had no memory of learning, including mathematics, sketching, a knowledge of sailing terms and juggling. He also discovered he did not have skills or knowledge of horses, gardening, sculpting, foreign languages, pottery, the dyeing industry, or sword fighting.

As a Returned, Lightsong takes care to maintain his apathetic and bitingly witty image, but truly does mean to do more than take advantage of the luxurious lifestyle offered by new position. Lightsong spends much time attempting to better understand himself and what he can do to be a good God to his people. Ultimately he is successful, and during the Pahn Kahl rebellion, dies giving his Divine Breath to heal Susebron's cut out tongue, playing an instrumental role in the prevention of a second Manywar.[2]

Trivia
