Bloodless white
a deep paleness in the skin, usually in the face or knuckles, caused by extreme fear, intense pain, or gripping something too tightly. In real life you might say: His knuckles turned a bloodless white as he held onto the railing during the turbulent flight.
If your child asks about Bloodless white, tell them: "It is a word you might hear in Indian stories." Then ask them — "Where do you think you'd see Bloodless white in real life?" It opens a small conversation about Indian culture.
