“G is lost in GANT, which remains when all other colours are eaten.
Gant can be found where shadows are myriad.”

The colour seen in the dark. A scar from a well that is always thirsty. Invisible ink used by revolutionaries. The shell of a dead star. The figurehead of a great ship made of bones. The Gant Pole is where zee-beasts go to die.

“There are seven impossible colours in the Neathbow, which are not found on the Surface.”

“V marks VIOLANT when blood is shed in a spired place.
Violant ink is employed for the most desperate treaties…”

The colour of necessary, but troublesome, connections. Fireworks, aggressively remembered. Spilled blood according to tradition. Desperate confessions. It is very difficult to forget anything written in violant ink.

Places of the Unterzee – Kingeater’s Castle

“An old voracity lives here, in the far reaches of the zee. The priests are long gone, but sacrifices are still made here. Perhaps you have come here to make a sacrifice. Perhaps the sacrifice is you.”
