What do the symbols mean on Tomes?

Question

There's apparently 5 volumes or tomes in Tibia called The Mystic Secrets of Tibia. Do the symbols mean anything on the Tomes or are they just decoration?

thank you :)

Answer 1

Red tome: In logical argument and mathematical proof, the therefore sign, ∴, is generally used before a logical consequence, such as the conclusion of a syllogism. The symbol consists of three dots placed in an upright triangle and is read therefore. While it is not generally used in formal writing, it is used in mathematics and shorthand. 

LOGIC 

3 dots could be also the symbolism of a place of interest and with the color red it can mean

DANGER AND ADVENTURE 

Purple tome: A crown is the traditional symbolic form of headgear worn by a monarch or by a deity, for whom the crown traditionally represents power, legitimacy, victory, triumph, honour, and glory, as well as immortality, righteousness, and resurrection. 

The color purple is often associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power, and ambition.

POWER AND ROYALTY 
 

Grey tome: the British association of magicians, traditionally forbidden to reveal any of the secrets of their art. 2. ( not capitals) a group of influential people involved in a conspiracy.

SECRETS OF DARK MAGIC  

Green tome:The hammer is essentially a masculine force, and when striking or crushing it represents justice and revenge. The hammer is not only a tool; it represents might. When paired with an anvil, represents ANDROGYNE, and with that often fertility and creation. The hammer is the thought while the anvil is the brain.

JUSTICE / FERTILITY 

Blue tome: Blue is a primary color across all models of colour space. It is the color of the ocean and the sky; it often symbolizes serenity, stability, inspiration, or wisdom. It can be a calming color, and symbolize reliability.

And with that symbol that is perfectly simetrical I deduct that is a symbol that means the balance in the perfect knowledge.
