Zorya is a dark navy blue solid/subtle-solid.  "There were three Slavic dawn goddesses, 'three little Zorya', as the folksongs say.  There was Zorya Utrennyaya, the morning star; Zorya Vechernyaya, the evening star; and the miidnight Zorya.  All have the same job: to guard a chained dog who tries to eat the constellation Ursa Minor, the little bear.  If the chain should ever break, if the dog should ever get loose, the universe will surely end.  Thus the Zoryas are guardian goddesses; they appear that way, too, as virgin warriors who keep their favorites safe under a long veil that shields them in battle."
