/* SHARPENED BY IRON - CORE GLOBAL BRAND STYLES
   Heraldic palette, weighted correctly:
   1. Sable  — the field. Dominant. Everything sits on black.
   2. Or     — the structure. Headings, rules, links, the button face.
   3. Gules  — the wolf's eyes and tongue. Small, sharp, precise.
                Never a wash. Never a background. A strike, not a coat.
