Sagas of Elements?

Sagas of Elements is a bit of a strange name, since even the most epic tale is but a single saga (a long story of heroic achievement, esp. a medieval prose narrative in Old Norse or Old Icelandic). Unless this is multiple such stories, then "Sagas" is unnecessary.

Since you seemingly missed it, there's Saga of Water and Wood which is sort of continuation but mostly new. I even posted the first part.

Then "Sagas of the Elements" would be more appropriate in English. Though one can always assume that "a" and "the" are understood, proper English does not require the listener or reader to parse this knowledge alone, and should provide that information explicitly, even where other languages may not require, or in some cases even allow, such a use of wording.
