Long before magical schools were organized in which all kinds of different forms were taught the Wizards, Sorcerors, Witches and Necromancers were very jealous of their power. They would only teach a few apprentices as they knew that one of them could always turn against them. However it was worth the risk for a few, by which they could extend their influence greatly. Of course the commoners would have a witch hunt every now and then, but only the deluded belived they caught anyone guilty of turning to the fey. Kings and Queens were manipulated like pawns in wars with the true causes veiled in deciet. Of course there were those willing to help their less fortunate brethern, for a price. You start this journey as a young apprentice to a magician of a specific area of study, be it elemental or otherwise. With experience you soon will be able to fight petty deuls amongst your rivals. Alignment plays a large part of your decisions along the way. For those of you not used to Alignments they are: Lawful Good, Neutral Good, Chaotic Good, Lawful Neutral, True Neutral, Chaotic Neutral, Lawful Evil, Neutral Evil, and Chaotic Evil. Tread carefully upon your journey, for if you fall off the path you shall not find it again.

Dark magic is rarely simple and almost always requires blood. Hmmm how about I show you how to poison someone from miles away. That dagger will come in handy. Scratch a pentagram in the target's footprint and put a drop of blood on each point. Write his name in the center and pour in the poison and make sure it sinks into the scratches you made. In a matter of days the poison will ravage his system and no one will know how it was done.

under my feet is water-(posidon) above me is lighting(zeus) inside of me is fire(hades)
If anyone in Greek mythology was associated with fire it was Prometheus. Hades ruled over the dead and their idea of the afterlife was quite different than our own.
