*''Flarers'': The minor and major fifths, the most dissonant and categorically ambiguous intervals. Melodically they can function as fifths, tritones, or sixths depending on context. Be careful with the major tritone in the minor modes; emphasizing it too much can cause unwanted shifts in tonal center, since it functions much more strongly as a 5/4 major third over the third degree than as a perfect fifth over the root.

The brighter modes, can be viewed as providing a distorted version of diatonic functional harmony. For example, in the Dylathian mode, the 4:5:9 triad on the sixth degree can sound like both "V" and "III of iv" depending on context. Basic chord progressions can move by minor fourths, thirds, or major seconds: for example, J major-M minor-P minor-Ob major-J major (in Ilarnekian) or J major-K major-O major-M major-J major (in Dylathian).
