- "Out of an avenue of autumn-scented trees a red-haired young man appeared. He was tall, clothed as for a hunt in leggings and leathers, his bow and quiver strapped across his back. His eyes were bright, sparkling like a woodland stream; freckles dusted across his nose, and his generous mouth laughed. His head was crowned with autumn leaves, brown oak, red maple, yellow birch, and his stride was wide."
- ―Ingrey meets the Son of Autumn[src]
The Son of Autumn was one of the five gods of the Chalion world.
His particular domain was warfare and hunting; warriors generally were devotees of the Son.
The primary color associated with the Son was red-orange; the secondary color was brown. His festival, Son's Day, was held at the autumn equinox.
At death, unless there was a stronger association with a different god, men who'd never fathered children generally were taken up by the Son.
