Mythical vs Wood Violet

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Mythical belongs to the blue-grey family and Wood Violet to the grey-purple family. Mythical (LRV 20) reflects noticeably more light than Wood Violet (LRV 16), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
