An '''element''' is one of the five basic building blocks - earth, fire, air, water, and spirit - that compose the material world. Pure, unspoiled elements manifest most profusely on their respective elemental [[:category:planes|planes]]. These planes are populated almost solely by [[elementals]] of that plane's given type and are lorded over by a primary elemental being. (For example, [[Kkractle]], the Eternal Fire, is the chief fire elemental, although some [[Achaea|Achaean]] physicists would argue that this Elemental Lord is the plane itself, a mere sentient manifestation of an otherwise seemingly inanimate terrain. The other Elemental Lords are [[Garash]], the Immovable Mountain, [[Sllshya]], the Great Ocean, and [[Whiirh]], the Western Wind; the [[angels]] are often thought of as Spirit elementals presiding over their home plane of [[Celestia]]). As an example of a raw element, the fires of both the [[sun]] and [[phoenix|phoenixes]] consist of primal elemental fire. [[Elemental ice]], on the other hand, is frozen elemental water shaped magically. This valuable [[commodities|commodity]] is most famously crafted and sold by the [[Tsol'aa village|Tsol'aa]] of the [[Aalen Forest]].

Mortals can call upon the elements by way of the [[Elementalism]] and [[Healing]] [[skills]]. A [[Vertani]] parallel may be drawn in the priests of [[House Hasii]], who work with the spirit element in lieu of worshipping a given deity. By Vertani beliefs, the spirit element is a manifestation of the [[All]].

The patron [[Gods|God]] of the elements was [[Agatheis]], the Elemental Lord. In His early attempts to control the elements, Agatheis inadvertently created the [[Flame of Yggdrasil]]. Elements thus enter into the worship of a few distinct societies, such as the [[Aeraithians]] of the [[Aeraithian Falls]] and the [[Atavians]] of [[Genji]].

In the past, the [[Atavians]] of [[Genji]] did as well, though with the death of Agatheis they eventually moved to worship the natural world and [[Gaia]], the Wildwood Queen.
