"Behind your mirror, V names VIRIC, the colour of shallow sleep."[1]

A color of the Neathbow, viric is the green of shallow sleep. It is heavily associated with the Fingerkings;[2] the eyes of Fingerking-possessed creatures burn with viric fire[3][4], and a box of dream-snakes will also glow viric.[5] The priests of Varchas use viric Mirror-Charms to ward off Fingerkings from their dreams.[6]

When viric light comes into contact with vegetation, it causes it to flourish and grow at an exponential rate.[7]

The word "viric" probably comes from the Latin viridis, meaning "green, blooming, vigorous," a word that also spawned the name of the similar color viridian.
