《True Essence》Hey babe, do you need help?

Gen then followed in the direction Stanley had pointed, and after a few minutes walking, he saw two huge frejars, and a person in the distance, he then thought, 'That must be Lina.', and then sped towards them. Lina was advancing towards one of the frejars, she had in her hand a huge sword that was almost her size, yet despite this, she held it easily with one of her hands as if it weighed nothing. When she got close enough she swung her sword towards the frejar, but the frejar dodged the blow and let out a blast of wind in Lina's direction. She then quickly raised her sword, and blocked the blow with it, however just as this happened, behind her appeared another frejar that headbutted her, throwing her a few feet to the side.
Lina, before falling to the ground, leaned her sword on it, and stabilized herself falling on her feet, and although she received the blow, she wasn't expressing pain as expected, she then looked at the frejar that hit her and said, "Is that all you have?". Hearing this he growled, and advanced again towards Lina, and she then moved into position, and when he had come close enough, she struck him with her sword, but the frejar easily dodged the blow with a step to the side, causing Lina's sword to hit the ground. He then advanced towards her with his mouth open, and Lina took this chance and used her sword as a shovel, and threw a large amount of sand into his mouth.
As this happened the frejar slowed down a bit and started spitting sand, and then coughing, Lina took advantage of this to pass him, and go towards the other frejar. She then advanced towards it, and as it saw her coming, the frejar let out a blast of air in her direction. Lina then used her sword to cut the blast of air, and kept going towards him, but when it saw that she had stopped its blast of air, the frejar stepped back and released another blast of air, and Lina again cut it off, and then kept going towards him. This continued for some time, and each time, Lina got closer to the wind frejar, but when she was only a few feet away, the frejar she had sandblasted appeared at her side, and again headed her off.

Lina then steadied herself again before falling, and then thought, 'There's no way to go on like this. This fast frejar just keeps winding me up, while the frejar with the wind essence keeps attacking me with air blows, making me waste energy to defend myself. I have to think of a way to finish them off soon, otherwise it will be too risky, and I'll have to run away, or at least I wish I could. There are too many people on this expedition, if I run away these two will surely attack the others. Ahh! if only I had already understood the beauty part of my essence, I wouldn't be having so many problems, my mother said that a joint essence only shows its true power after understanding all its parts.'
The fast frejar came again towards Lina, and she positioned her sword, and waited for him to get close enough, and the moment he came within range, she struck him. Lina was already thinking about what to do after she missed, when she suddenly realized that the frejar wasn't moving, and she thought, 'What happened to him? I can't lose this chance.' she then took the sword with her other hand, and put more force into the blow. The frejar was about to be hit, when suddenly, a gust of wind came, and deflected the blow a little, which caused the sword to hit him lightly. She then thought, 'Damn, I almost finished him off.', and then she heard, "Hey babe, do you need help?"
Lina then turned in the direction of the voice, and then she saw Gen. She was in shock to see him, and couldn't say anything, and seeing this Gen said, tossing his hair in the air, "What is it Lina? Haven't you ever seen a man this handsome? Hahaha.", and she then said, "Gen you're alive! That's good Gen, You don't know how worried I was-", "Don't even try Lina. I met with Joru and Stanley before I got here.", "That's too bad, but if you already knew what did you come here for? Did you come to give yourself up to see if I would go easy on you?", "Ah, Lina, a year has passed but you're still the same as always, beautiful and thinking you're superior to everyone.", "Well, aren't I?", said Lina with a smile, "Well, beautiful I can't deny, but as far as being superior goes, you couldn't be more wrong."

Lina then frowned and said, "Oh yeah? Then why don't you prove me wrong?", Gen then looked in the direction of the frejars and said, "Well, we can work this out, but we better deal with those two first." but then suddenly, a sword came flying at him, but Gen didn't even bother to move, and just waited for it to come. Lina then said, "What happened, Gen? You're in shock that I attacked you. You better dodge it, or you might get seriously hurt, hahaha." Gen continued without moving, and then Lina said, "Hey Gen! Just dodge it! I put a lot of force into this." but when the sword came within a certain distance of him, it started to advance very slowly, to the point where it stopped and then fell to the ground.
Gen then said, to Lina, "Who told you that I need to dodge?", Lina then was silent for a while, and then said, "Look at this, it seems you got an essence this past year.", "Yeah.", "That's why you're all brave now.", "Hahaha, ahh, let's talk later Lina. We have to deal with these two frejars.", "Ok, give me my sword then.", Gen then took Lina's sword, and threw it towards her, and then Lina said, "Come on then. What does your essence do?", "Don't worry. Just attack normally and I'll assist you the same way I did just now.", "Oh, so it was you who stopped the frejar at that time.", "Yes.", "From the way you stopped my sword, and the frejar, it looks like your essence has something to do with limiting the movement of things.", Gen then gave a small smile and said, "You'll know."
Lina then said, "Trying to be mysterious, hum. All right, when this is over, I'll forcibly get the information out of you.", "Haha, let's see.", Lina then said, "Come on. Don't fall behind, big guy.", " You don't have to worry.", Lina then said, "Come on.". The two of them started to run towards the frejars, and on the way, Lina noticed that Gen was keeping up with her without any problem, and she looked at him and thought, 'How strange the way he is keeping up with me. He takes one step, but he crosses a lot more space than usual. It seems that his essence has something to do with movement.' Gen then said, "Hey, I know you must be missing me terribly after this year of not seeing me, but you don't have to look at me all the time. We'll have plenty of time to talk after we're done here."
Lina then said, "That's right, I can't wait, to have a conversation with you.", "Me too.", the two then arrived in front of the frejars, and then Lina said, "Our focus has to be the frejar that has the essence of wind. He always gets in the way when I try to finish the other one, and besides, the other one is very fast, so if he wants to run away it will be hard to stop him.", Gen then said, "Don't worry about that. Just attack him, I won't let him get away. I hope I don't waste my energy for nothing.", "You bet you won't.", Lina then advanced towards the fast frejar, and he also came towards her, when they were facing each other Lina hit him with her sword, and as expected, he started to dodge again, but he again stopped in the middle of the way.
Lina saw this and thought, 'Gen's essence really has something to do with movement. Maybe dealing with him is more difficult than I expected.' and so she struck out with the frejar in front of her, but again, just as her blow was about to hit him, a gust of air hit the sword, deflecting the attack, which because of this, only managed to cut him superficially. She then said, " There's no way I can fight like this.", and then asked, "Gen, can't you fix this blast of air?", and Gen then answered, "Unfortunately not, but don't worry, I already know what to do. Attack him again, this time you won't miss.", "Bold words you just said, but I like it. Let's start round two then."

You Are The Gods.
You read the title right, YOU are a God within this story. In fact, every single reader of the story is a God. Many stories like to take the path that there are Gods that watch over the characters of the story, helping them or hurting them as the characters progress. What if, the readers of this story are the Gods that are watching the Main Characters? What if the readers could accrue points by reading that they could spend to help the main character, hurt the main character, or to even create new characters, dungeons, and scenarios? That is what I aim to create! I am trying to get the community involved in creating a reality that the readers themselves can directly influence! If you have any interest in this at all, I implore you to read the intro chapter called 'The Tutorial' and join everyone else on many interesting stories on Planet Earth and what it is to become! Volume 1 is where you can find how the system works, and the various things within the system! Volume 2 is the actual story and invasions itself. Volume 3 is where you can find previous polls and the such. Volume 3 is so we can all look back at the decisions made. Quick note. I am not the best writer, and will try my best to create the best quality story. There might be some grammar errors, or I might write in a simpler way compared to other authors because I do not have much time, nor can I write ahead either! If you wish to give me advice on the system as the story goes on, then I will gladly accept it. Lastly, just have fun with the story as I try to do something completely new!
