"Well, in much a similar way, the four classical elements relate to certain hands types." With the chalk, he began to draw four distinct types of hands. The first was very gracile looking. "The air hand is characterized by having long, usually slender fingers, with a square palm. A very stark contrast to the earth hand, which is usually characterized with a squarish palm, and short fingers. Also, the earth hand tends to have very deeply carved lines in it. A clear story can often be read by an earth hand." He said as he drew the basic outline for the earth hand and started on another gracile hand that was smaller than the air hand. "The water hand looks almost just like the air hand with its long fingers, but the tips of these fingers are usually round and the palm is rectangular rather than square. Lastly, we have the fire hand. Would anyone care to venture a guess as to what shape the palm takes in this type of hand?" He asked the class.

Anna listened to the professor as he discussed the shapes of the air hand, the earth hand, and the water hand. The fourth hand, the fire hand, was the hand he'd left for the students to discuss. Raising her hand, Anna said, "The fingers of the fire hand are shorter then the length of the palm from the wrist to the bottom of the fingers," she said. "The palm of the fire hand is also square or rectangular-shaped and has a flushed appearance."
