What element fits Veil of Reality? - Affect: Status affects are nullified. Last 3 turns
Elements i don't see fitting: 
Elements that might work: 
By nullifying effects, it's as if achieving a temporary state of 'pureness', without blemishes (status effects).
My first thought was 'similar to quintessence', So might work. Also for Aether, as (in my definition) the physical part of everything, and in ETG the manipulation of physical properties, this seems to fit there best.
Darkness i though might work because of cloak, which is somewhat similar, though i have no further reasoning for
Time, I view as the non-physical part of everything, which in a way controls status (ex. when you freeze time, everything freezes, meaning all active occurring statuses stop until time is 'unfrozen') So, overall, or
I think it's pretty fitting for light (bolded pureness), and I don't think it works with aether at all because the ethereal ream should always have some status effect related to it, it's not at all earthly and plain. The aethereal realm controls physical statuses
quintessence = state of pureness
light does not mean pure; that's a major mass-believed good/bad stereotype. light is light.
First of all, there are multiple definitions of quintessence, and EtG is likely not using the chemical definition.
1. (Chemistry) an extract of a substance containing its principle in its most concentrated [purest] form
2. (Philosophy) (in ancient and medieval philosophy) ether, the fifth and highest essence or element after earth, water, air, and fire, which was thought to be the constituent matter of the heavenly bodies and latent in all things
Second, is there something wrong with using mythology or religion as context? Light has Blessing, Miracle, Angels, etc. If you really want to get into it, there is already a water card called Purify, so we could even
it, which I'd still prefer over Aether. Even
would be preferred in terms of gameplay, since they have the most creatures that have no abilities, they're the purest creatures around!
