Also! I want to address another piece of lore. In this world, medicine is very, VERY affected by the presence of healing magic. A lot of times (specially in bigger cities) temples and hospitals/medical centers are basically the same thing. Most of the people that run temples are elementals and thus have access to healing through water and light. So it's common for someone who lives in the Royal City to go the temple when they're sick, to the area dedicated to these healing element gods.
In smaller villages though, there actually may be a separate temple and medical center. Keep in mind, the medical center will still mostly be run by religious water/light elementals. Villages that don't have these elementals are more likely to rely on herbalists and apothecaries.
