A Mage going from the underworld to the air needs the square on the land between to be empty, and an Elemental needs the square beside it empty on the way up and the square beneath it empty on the way down. The Sylph, the Dwarf, the Cleric and the King move straight up or down, one board at a time, onto the square itself.
