Elements are said to be the building blocks of the world. In the elvin world, there are a total of seven elements, six are known to the public. They are Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Quintessence, Shadowflux, and a seventh element, which is unnamed. According to Vespera, this is because the Ancient Council did not want a trace of record of the dangerous element. Fire may be summoned by a Pyrokinetic, and there are also different aspects of fire, such as Everblaze, and Balefire. Water can be condensed and formed by Hydrokinetics in a similar manner. Wind is controlled by Gusters. Earth, however, does not associate with an ability, unlike the other elements. Quintessence is only collected through the five unmapped stars, though it is unknown if it's possible to collect Quintessence from the sixth unmapped star. Shadowflux, according to Lady Zillah, makes up everything known, and is usually ignored and shunned, because Elves do not want to be seen as "made from darkness". The seventh element, however, is a special case. It can only be collected through certain rocks, which absorb the light from the sixth unmapped star. As shown when Lady Gisela ruthlessly murdered Vespera, it is volatile. These are the seven elements, and there may possibly be more.

Quotes
“Just as fire hungers and wind breathes and water roars and earth waits. I've never been near quintessence, but I hear it pulses. And shadowflux dreams—hovering high above, waiting for something to capture its interest.”
