Elemental Magic

The Elements are the four most basic aspects of the natural world: Earth, Water, Air, and Fire.

When manipulated by a sorcerer, the Elements can be used to perform powerful magic. Generally, magic performed through the manipulation of individual Elements can be counteracted with magic invoking opposing Elements. An Afanc, for example, is conjured using Earth and Water, and can thus be destroyed using Wind and Fire, as accomplished by Merlin and Arthur. (The Mark of Nimueh)
