I'm gonna quote Sounsyy's reply to a thread about an Auri Conjurer.

Most certainly. Elementals live everywhere in Hydaelyn. Though most do not appear to mortals outside of the Twelveswood's Hedge for fear of Mankind.

Which leads into...

Domans, and possibly other Othardian natives, do actually have something strangely akin to "nature magicks." In fact, worship of Elementals might actually be... a thing. Listen to this:

Oboro Wrote:My people do not worship your deities twelve. Our gods are all around us - in the trees, in the soil, in the crashing waters before you. Close your eyes and open your heart to the sound of the rushing falls, that you might purge your mind of all worldly thoughts and distractions.

Oboro Wrote:We draw power from the world around us - the heaven, the earth, the hearts of man - and channel this power into physical form. I am told that this is similar to your concept of ay-ther, was it?

This sounds suspiciously similar to Conjurers' descriptions of the Elementals:

Waldew Wrote:Listen, adventurer, to the rustling leaves, the flowing rivers- to the very pulse of this land. We conjurers of Stillglade Fane interpret these whispers of the Elementals and convey them to the people of Gridania.

Ingram Wrote:Put your ear to the Twelveswood, sister, and listen with all your being. Know - not fear - know that the Elementals are there. And when you feel that it is they that comprise the life that flows through us all, you will begin to hear their whispers.

So Far Easterners may actually be Elemental worshipers themselves!

[...]

Hope this helps! ^^
