Imagery
Soil mixed within sand and gravel. Not as solid as City Wall Earth nor as open as Courier Station Earth, but even a handful of soil in a desert is precious.

- Loose and awaiting consolidation. Governs untapped potential and patience.
- Favors Fire (hardening), Water (binding), and Wood (root systems stabilize sand into soil).
