Ummm...the explanation sounds OK. Unfortunately I sense a minor conflict between that and how the panels 2 & 3 actually appear. Dogley's comment is pure goldA metal of characteristic yellow colour, the most precious metal used as a common commercial medium of exchange. Symbol, Au; at. no. 79; at. wt. 197.2. It is the most malleable and ductile of all metals, and very heavy (sp. gr., 19.3). It is quite unalterable by heat, moisture, and most corrosive agents, and therefore well suited for its use in coin and jewelry.

Yeah, I was guessing a typo even before Fredil's comment. I forgive most little typos, but not one that is central to a joke and should have been caught with a minimal proofread.

Great idea and execution, but the details just tend to bite one's backside.

I don't get it. I KNOW about the frost brand- but where did the !oWaters come from? and is the steam vortexSwirling clouds of pure elemental energies, the vortices are thought to be related to the larger elementals. Though the vortices do no damage when touched, they are noted for being able to envelop unwary travellers. The hapless fool thus swallowed by a vortex will soon perish from exposure to the element the vortex is composed of.

I believe the fire brand melted the frost brand, making the waterDay after day, day after day, We stuck, nor breath nor motion; As idle as a painted ship Upon a painted ocean. Water, water, everywhere, And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, everywhere Nor any drop to drink.
