Please don't apologize! Not for information that amazing! I love learning about new types of magic. There's so much more to learn here because the magic is so completely different from where I'm from.
Mages from home are able to use elemental magic and their own branch of magic, but the two are remotely related. For example, I'm a dark magician with an elemental focus of water. Another dark magician could use fire or air or earth. We don't have the other elements you talked about, like lightning or ice. Ice is just part of the water element and lightning magic is a specific branch like dark magic.
Most people only know one or maybe two types of elemental magic. Learning more than that is really hard. A lot of magicians believe it's impossible to be able to work all four types of elemental magic. To hear that in your would your affinity can be to three different types already is pretty amazing. It must give you a lot bigger repertoire of what you can do.
talking to a magic lover who is a sponge for new information. he doesn't care.
