Mighty Rune Forest

Old English mihtig, strong — adjectival suffix -y, sharing root with German mächtig. As a color modifier, mighty implies a saturated-and-strong-presence quality, where the hue commands visual attention through pure pigmentation strength. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to forceful and commanding in tone.

Old Norse rún, secret-or-runic-letter. As a color modifier, rune implies a Norse-runic-letter-and-Futhark-and-incised-stone quality, the visual register of Elder-Futhark-and-Norse-runic-stone hand-Norse-runic-letter-and-Futhark-and-incised-stone Elder-Futhark-and-Norse-runic-stone-and-Viking-grave-marker rune-and-Norse-runic-letter-and-Futhark surfaces under Elder-Futhark-and-Norse-runic-stone-and-Viking-grave-marker Jelling-stone-and-Rök-runestone runic-incision-light. Sits at the modifier-and-myth end of the grid, parallel to omen and sigil in usage.

The dense canopy of a temperate or tropical woodland — oak, beech, pine, eucalyptus, mahogany — wherever leaves close above to filter the light below. Forest green refers to the average reflectance of a healthy mid-summer canopy seen from below: a saturated, slightly muted green with the matte finish of layered chlorophyll. Deeper than fern, cooler than olive, with the ecological weight of a word that has named every wooded biome on Earth.
