A Bored Lich
"Screw magic, I want to learn how to do cool flips and stuff." Magic is awesome, until you've studied it for centuries. Doevm reincarnates into a human to experience the path of a fighter to its fullest and swears not to rely on magic. There is only one problem, a goddess stands in his way. She pits him against both the hero and the villain for all of eternity. How will he escape this, with magic or his fists? Maybe both? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------(Sorry about the spacing.

Don't be afraid to say you don't understand something or point out an error in grammar. I read all comments. There are naturally some things I won't say. For example, if some says there's an inconsistency and I don't address it, it's probably there for a reason.

"I had to cook for the rest of the orphans," Owen continued. "I was raised in an orphanage by a very kind woman, who taught me how to cook. I wasn't good at it, nor did I like it. The only reason I did it was because I found out the woman was starving herself.
There just wasn't enough to go around. She grew weak, too weak to cook, but someone had to do it, even if the others hated me for how bad a job I was doing.
She was the only one who smiled when I made something, and the only one who cried when I was taken. Gwen, she smiled too. It was like she…" His voice trailed off and he shook his head. "Does that answer your question?"
"What was her name?" Olpi asked.
