Hrm... interesting thoughts. This runs along the terms of a traditional Chinese/ Japanese mythology setup. (It's actually the 4 guardians of the compass directions.) Though the directions for Vacuo/Atlas are wrong in Remnant, the setup and characteristics are similar. The main takeaways are this:

Tortoise (Black Warrior) = North, Winter, Black, Water White Tiger (Kirin) = West, Fall, White, Metal Red Bird (Phoenix) = South, Summer, Red, Fire Dragon = East, Spring, Blue/Green, Wood
