If we want something more warlike, we can phrase it like this. The flexibility of water and the solidity of earth – that is our essence. A cleansing flood will wash away the enemy, and the earth will swallow him.
Much better. The second line is connected to the first, and we've already come up with the "Flood" spell. So, we need to come up with a combat earth spell as well. For example... hmm... I need to think about it.

If the earth swallows, then it should be something like "Absorption into the Earth's Depths"... But we need to come up with a more beautiful and concise name.

[/U]If the earth consumes it, then let it be something like "Absorption by the Earth's Depths"... But it needs a more beautiful and comprehensive name.
For example, the Abyss (or simply Earth's Absorption, or Earth's Might, or Mother Earth).

Or maybe just, "The Earth's Depths?"

Mother Earth is the best.

That's even better. What else do we have left? What are the creatures doing? And what about the crocodile?

Some people don't like the crocodile, and that's it. But, as I said, there's a crocodile god in Egyptian mythology. I would still keep it. But we need to come up with an alternative for it, just in case. A Basilisk and a Wyvern (where can we go without them?) instead of the crocodile and the turtle.

Yes, probably "Mother Earth" won't work after all. After all, this spell should be available to all races, and only this race can call the earth "mother". So, we should keep "Earth's Core".

I like the crocodile more. At least it's original. The Basilisk and Wyvern are also not bad, but we've seen all of that before. And they don't really fit into the underwater world.

So, he will defend the crocodile. The argument is the existence of such a deity in Egyptian mythology. What about the turtle?

I also like the turtle. Let's make a giant turtle with a bony beak. A slow but resilient monster to protect the archers. Plus, turtles are also found in mythology. The whole world rests on the back of a turtle.

This could be incorporated into the lore of a faction. The world is held up by a giant turtle swimming in the cosmic ocean. This faction descended from the land into the cosmic ocean, thus getting closer to the level of the gods. By the way, what is the name of this faction?

:D :D :D But there isn't a name yet. We need to translate the word "Amphibians" into English. How would that be?

Will the story contradict the mythology in any way?

No, it’s better not to translate, but to come up with something original. You could create a derivative of the word “Tatalia,” or something completely new. For example, the race could be called “Vaer” (Water+Earth) or simply “Children of the Sea and Earth.” Or “Children of the Great Turtle” (you just need to come up with a name for it).

History is what actually happened. And mythology is what they invented themselves, forgetting what it all started with, forgetting about the Cataclysm.
Children of the Great Turtle – that's not bad. But then

Yeah, that's true. But on the other hand, they could say that the Great Turtle sends its younger offspring to serve them. Second-tier monsters have a large growth rate, so it's quite normal. Their Mother sends many helpers.

Well, I don't know... Then the symbol of the race (and the structure of the Grail) should be a turtle.
