I just threw it together on a whim, so to speak. I am trying to improve the illustration, but it turns out to be quite difficult. How do you represent "mud", "sand", "smoke", "steam", and "air", and how do you differentiate the latter three? I know I could always come up with "alchemical symbols" but that's a cop-out. Current ideas: Geyser for steam, a cloud for air and "stink lines" of sorts for smoke; a sand dune for sand and.... I have no idea for mud. Earth, water, and fire are of course easy - Mountain, wave, and flame, respectively. Hmm, interesting. I just threw it together on a whim, so to speak.
