I think hurtloam is the only found in nature; used without art?

Marrowmeld is the only one used purely as art?

no, Kins. Not what I'm looking for. I don't think clingor had anything to do with art.
And I am not Joan: Very cool answer! But not what I wanted. :)

As far as we know, Earthpower doesn't have anything to do with clingor. (or Max Klingor, for that matter.)

Marrowmeld is an art - the others are objects.

I don't think TC ever sees gildenlode, just hears about it.

graveling
gildenlode
ok clingor - adhesive leather
hutloam - healing substance found in mud
marrow meld - bone sculpting
graveling - fire stones
gilden lode - powerful wood .. made from gilden trees.

and the hint is LA and vain ;) mmm ..

i'm thinking marrow-meld is the odd one out .. cos it isnt a direct element of earth power .. it is a craft ..

the others are substances .. found in the earth ..

power mud, clever leather <may not serve this rationale well but> ;) , power stones and power wood.

there is no inherent power in a marrow meld .. being a craft ..

ok i give up .. cos i cant find any connection between the marrow meld and LA & vain ;)

Graveling was the only one used in the Second Chronicles. :)
