Correct. Practically by definition, the root of my power is pure Hydro energy.
[But she goes quiet, and - he isn't sure what she's doing, but Neuvillette isn't about to interrupt her. He may be of Hydro on a deeper level than his bones, but as recent, narwhal-related experiences are shown, even the instinctive knowledge of a Dragon Sovereign does not cover every possible power in the world.
