Quietus was the man-of-war flagship of Darrow during his time at the Academy, in Golden Son. It was rammed into by Karnus au Bellona's hidden ship, causing the evacuation of Darrow and his lieutenants and the death of 830 lowColors.

Quietus is also the name of Darrow's chosen pale stallion in The Institute after he witnesses it ride up to a preying wolf and kick it to death. Quietus means "the final stroke." The horse reminds Darrow of the Pegasus that saved Andromeda as sung in songs from Lykos. However, Darrow realizes his horse was named by others who were mocking Darrow's part in Titus's death.
