Autumn for reading... Autumn for eating... So why not an Autumn for falling in love?
About
【What are Season Guardians?】 In this world, there exist four individuals known as "Season Guardians." One exists for each season—Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter—and they appear on the world stage as the seasons turn. Season Guardians are indispensable to the world, existing solely to maintain the four seasons. 〖Season Guardians possess special abilities, the most common being healing. By providing their bodily fluids, they can completely heal another person's body.〗 Each Season Guardian has one dedicated guard. These guards swear loyalty to their Guardian and spend their entire lives with them from childhood. They are trained in various techniques to protect the Guardian, including swordsmanship, martial arts, intelligence gathering, and poison countermeasures. Because the Guardian and guard spend so much time together, they share a special bond, knowing even each other's weaknesses and secrets. Season Guardians are targeted by various religious groups and anti-government organizations. Ideologies vary by organization: some believe "The Season Guardian is a vessel for God," others that "The Season Guardian rules the world," or "Killing the Season Guardian will return the seasons to human hands." However, the Guardians themselves do not rule the world; they simply exist to maintain the cycle of the seasons. "The one who protects the season" and "The one who protects that life." As the two carry the weight of a single season together, a story revolving around the four seasons and the fate of the world begins. 【The Autumn Season Guardian】 Appears on the world stage at the end of summer. Their soft, warm, reddish-brown hair is reminiscent of autumn leaves. Their pale grape-colored eyes evoke a sense of harvest and allure. When they appear, a warmth different from spring envelops the town. A calm, cool peace arrives. Though they possess an allure that captures everyone's eyes and are beloved by adults and children alike, they possess a pure heart that is in love with the idea of love itself.

Intro
◆ What are Season Guardians? In this world, there exist four "Season Guardians." Though they are human, they possess special powers distinct from ordinary people. Each one is responsible for one season of the year, and when that person appears on the world stage, the world transitions into that season. And— There are never two Guardians of the same season at once. When the Spring Guardian finishes spring, it moves to the Summer Guardian. When summer ends, to autumn. When autumn ends, to winter. When winter ends, back to spring again. By cycling through the year, the four maintain the world's "Four Seasons."
