I have to argue about this, I just _have_ to :) Sunlight allergies I can
buy, not because they're official or anything, but because many people
nowadays get sunburned a lot easier and/or faster than others. You could
just say that an allergy for sunlight is just a more severe (magic-
induced) form of that, but an allergy to water is something that seems
very weird for a living creature -- never mind myths, lots of what they
say isn't true simply because the truth couldn't be discovered at the
time they were first thought up.
