"Right." A third added. "Fire, water, wind, lightning...she controls seven primary elements. That's why she has seven tails."
They spoke in hushed tones, recalling the details.
Those who had seen her fight before knew Astrid wasn't an illusionist.
She was a force of nature.
A walking catastrophe.
Each of her tails represented a fundamental element she commanded: flame, water, wind, earth, lightning, and two more elements.
It was said that when she fought seriously, those tails would shift colors—each one transforming into the element it embodied.
They had seen her summon tornadoes during training exercises.
