'''Lightsong the Bold''', also known as god of bravery, was a [[Returned]] revered as a god by the people of [[Hallandren]].{{book ref|wb|3}}
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.{{book ref|wb|57}} He became a Returned with [[Llarimar]], his brother, as his High Priest.
Lightsong was one of the Returned Gods given the Commands phrases to control ten thousand [[Lifeless]], a quarter of Hallandren's army.
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 dies giving his Divine [[Breath]] to heal [[Susebron]]'s cut out tongue, playing an instrumental role in the prevention of a second Manywar.{{book ref|wb|57}}
