4 days agoI had to check if I was in the Lemmy equivalent to /r/cremposting… There is one but it’s dead, oh well.
For context, in the Stormlight Archive fantasy series, eye color determines social standing. Blue or green eyes are “light eyes”, and are like nobility. Whereas “dark eyes” are commoners, laborers, etc. There are quite a few few linguistic things related to that, so your thought could fit right in.
If it were a glorification of that concept, then sure, but it’s not. Most of the time spent on that particular bit of world building it to point out what a stupid system it is.
