Re: Imladris
Why differentiate between the Three Elven Rings if they were identical? No such distinction is made with regard to the Seven and the Nine. Ring of Air, Ring of Water, Ring of Fire, surely there is a reason for these descriptions which relates to the properties of the Three rings.
As far as `elemental power` being implied, I think that Gandalf`s frequent use of fire, as well as the properties of Galadriel`s Mirror is rather more than an implication. Somewhat more tenuously, there are references to the beneficial effects of the `air` and `atmosphere` of Rivendell. This could be construed as an indication of a specific effect generated (at least in part) by Vilya.
