I need more details before I can give advice. Is this for the story you think is too unoriginal? What is the story about? Is the elemental magic your existing magic system or one you're considering retrofitting onto the story? What are you aiming for here - is there a particular author you'd like to write like, or a particular mood you'd like to capture?
Details.
The magic system has sort of been translated from the old unoriginal story that I've trunked for now, but it's been expanded and outlined. The storyline has been recreated, as well as the world. Only a few of the original aspects remain.
The elemental magic system is just one facet of the magic in the world as well, since the story revolves around a couple of different groups who also use different sources of magic. Elementals (or w/e) use "natural" magic, while the others use either arcane or demon magic. Those who use the elemental or "natural" magic are typically the common people, while those who study the arcane magics are people selected for a specialized job higher up in society.
There's a bit of a social struggle between these people.
Demon magic is evil and is sort of behind the scenes.
I'm not attempting to write like any particular author, and I haven't really decided much on a mood, unfortunately.
