Lined Mage Lagoon

Old English līne, line / cord — past-participle of line. As a color modifier, lined implies a clear-and-coordinated-and-supported quality where the hue carries the visual register of carefully-lined-and-supported textile-or-print surface. Sits at the crisp-and-finished end of the grid, parallel to trim and coordinated in usage.

Latin magus, wise-man / magician. As a color modifier, mage implies a Persian-magus-and-medieval-wizard quality, the visual register of Persian-Magus-and-medieval-European-Wizard hand-spell-cast pointed-hat-and-staff-and-grimoire wise-man-and-magician surfaces under Persian-Magus-and-medieval-European-Wizard hand-spell-cast-and-grimoire candlelit-tower light. Sits at the modifier-and-cultural end of the grid, parallel to druid and bard in usage.

A shallow body of saltwater partially or fully enclosed by a barrier — coral atoll lagoons in the Pacific, Venice's Laguna Veneta, the Florida Keys' backcountry. The color refers to the average reflectance of a calm tropical lagoon at midday: a saturated, slightly muted blue-green with the optical clarity of shallow water over white sand. Brighter than reef, cooler than aquamarine, with the postcard weight of a Pacific atoll seen from above.
