So, Elemental Rings. How are they created, anyway? We know that they are enhanced Gold Rings with elemental prowress, and that they probably use Kartilla Gemstones to conduct the powers within them. But where do these elements come from? I've been thinking about Saren's suggestions.

 * You may be onto something there, but there's a problem: Avarice invented Elemental Rings. So, nothing ancient about them. Now, if the ancients left their power behind, I could probably work off of that. Could be that they somehow harnessed said power in these rings.

So, I'm thinking these 'ancients' used special stones that absorbed elements to become elemental stones (tentative name) of sorts. For instance, when the ore is first excavated, it is either non-elemental, or already Earth elemental (as it had absorbed the element from being in the earth for so long.) The Non-elemental ones are then exposed to different elements in order to absorb them. They are cast into a fire in order to gain the fire element, they are frozen in order to gain the ice element, they are electrocuted in order to gain the lightning element, they are soaked in water to gain the aqua element, they are put under a constant breeze (like under a fan of sorts,) in order to gain the wind element, they are planted in soil in order to gain the Earth Element (or just excavated late) they are left in bright rooms or direct sunlight to get the light element, and they are left in a pitch black room to gain the darkness element.

Whatever happened to these ancients, their civilization was lost to time and the only thing that remains are the ruins of their old city, and the deep mines hidden beneath it. Avarice had discovered these ruins, and made a breakthrough in using their old technology to create Elemental Rings. The mines have not yet run dry, but their discovery has not been made public, so to keep the origins of the Elemental Rings a secret.

So, thoughts? Suggestions?
