Prologue Purple is a secondary colour created by folding together two primary colours, red and blue. It’s rare in nature, with few purple plants, flowers, and fauna.
Red and blue are as different as male and female, hot and cold, conservatism and liberalism. As you and me, the past and the future, earth and heaven.
Purple is weird—sometimes, it seems closer to red; other times, it approaches blue. Purple seems to play both sides, but it’s not a divider—it embraces.
