It is theorised that Air-Earth should be referred to as the “Major Axis” because the ordinate elements seem to be the “Minor Axis” elements with the Major attributes of solid and ethereal applied to them.
Some theorise that there is also a set of eight additional elements, the secondary-intercardinal elements.
Many have tried to establish a correlation between the elements and the seasons or directions. Often they expect to find that, say, water is north and fire is south. However, it appears that while water is associated with north and fire south, air and earth being east and west respectively, their associated minor elements are associated with the same cardinal direction equally, and no relation to adjacent cardinal directions. This is surprising because the two compass roses are very similar, and are, we know, associated, but do not have a clear mapping.
Certain mages make use of a phenomenon known as Ley Lines, lines of magic power which these mages can draw on to use magic. One theory posits that there are separate lines for each element, while another claims that they overlap inside of a normal ley line. Unfortunately, neither theory has been tested, or even, some feel, been explained properly and fully by their proponents.
Some believe that rather combining two elements to get a third, we should separate an element into two elements.
The element of darkness is not associated with concealment, but rather with absorption.
Many elements have more than one trait. For example, ice has traits of piercing, containment and growth.

“Yes!”
Congratulations, you’ve found all eight monuments.
“Yeah, now I can become a ‘Traceur of Eight Paths’.
Well what are you waiting for?
“I’m not leaving until you finish the book. You can only talk to me here, right?”
Well…
“That’s what I thought. I’m staying.”
[p=center]* * *[/p]
There.
I finished the stupid book.
“Perfect. It’s been fun, but my time is up.”
Yep. It’s been a whole month since you came here.
And so Dali walked out of the monument.
You may now select any of the classes you qualified for.
Because you have studied On the Eight Elements at the monument to its authors, you qualify for the secret hidden class Elemental Traceur.
Hidden Class
If you accept it, you can use exclusive skills related to the nature of the class. Do you want to convert now?
“What?!”
WHAAAAAT?!
“How did-”
Even I didn’t know about this!
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
“Really?”
Yeah. You have to take this. I couldn’t stand not knowing what it does.
“Neither could I.”
“I accept the class change to Elemental Traceur.”

“Wow, this… isn’t a knight.”
Did you expect it to be? Really?
“I mean, of course not, but it just sort of hit me.”
It’s not like you can’t fight.
“Yeah, you’re right of course.”
Dali stopped.
“I guess this is goodbye then”
Yeah about that…
“What?”
Insanity
You spent so much time on your own you started to hear voices.
“Is that…”
A new stat? You noticed.
I’m calling in that favor you owe me.
“But-”
Don’t worry, you have plenty of stat slots left.
“This is what you were doing during that week isn’t it?”
You guessed it kid!
Now let’s bounce.
Dali sighed, and began the trek back to town.
