Spiritual Stones Re-imagined

Description

A concept art for the Legend of Zelda Spiritual Stones/Virtue Pendants/Pearls of the Goddesses/whatever the current incarnation is.

The three elemental stones (Earth/Forest, Fire and Water) appear in most Zelda games in some incarnation, usually an orb of varying size. So what if there was only ever one of each?

The Spiritual Stones of OoT are the same stones... just embellished. I've tweaked the design to suit.

Fire is not as far off the OoT design as it might seem at first glance: extend the base into a point and it's suddenly not too far off the Goron's Ruby! The new design was meant to echo the Fire Medallion, and harken to a fire ball, falling with a bit of spin.
Water was the first redesign, since shouldn't there only be one Sapphire in the singular 'stone'? The center triangle flips with the outer stones for this new arrangement, forming a ring of cones and curves to hold the stone. Ruto actually has an engagement ring now.
Forest is the least changed - I used the original Kokiri's Jade concept, rather than OoT's final Emerald. Otherwise, it's now wrapped in a literal gold leaf rather than a stylized one. The leaf and stem swirl on the stone are meant to recall the symbol in Farore's Pearl.
