Lemme tell you something new:
Gauntlets, are little crystal or gem things, that control a certain element.
Like fire, ice, nature, etc.
A gifted person around the world gets one element that only they can control.
Me, Ashley, Being myself, controls nature.
To gain your powers of an element, you have to find your element. My element, or gauntlet, was found inside a mining cave.
So I have a story to tell you about my friends, me, and the gauntlets.
