Beron

Character from acotar-mist-and-fury by

High Lord of the Autumn Court, a cold-hearted traditionalist who rules through fear and fire, and who will sell Prythian to the King of Hybern to preserve his own power.

Beron is the embodiment of Autumn's old ways: cruel, calculating, and utterly convinced of his own superiority. He rules his court with an iron fist, crushing dissent before it can bloom, and views the other High Lords as rivals to be outmaneuvered rather than allies.

Appearance

Beron is lean and sharp-featured, with russet hair threaded with grey and eyes the color of cooling embers. He dresses in the deep reds and golds of autumn leaves, always immaculate, and carries himself with the coiled stillness of a predator who has never needed to run.

Also known as: High Lord of Autumn, Lord of the Autumn Court, Beron the Burned, the Ember King

What They Know

• The Book of Breathings is one of the most powerful artifacts in existence, and he knows its two halves are kept apart—one in Prythian, one in the mortal lands.
• He knows the location of the Weaver's Cottage and the Prison, and the ancient powers bound within them.
• He knows that Rhysand hides the true city of Velaris behind a veil of fear and lies, though he does not know its exact location.
• He knows that Lucien is not his true son, a secret he guards with murderous intent.
• He knows that the King of Hybern is both a threat and a potential ally, and he has already begun secret negotiations.
• He knows that the Cauldron can be used to shatter the Wall, and that the Dread Trove exists, though its location eludes him.
• He knows that the mating bond is the Cauldron's will, and he despises the notion of fate overriding a High Lord's authority.
