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.
Human Suffering
'At least I have this,' Doevm thought as he flipped to the second page of the advanced healing book. By now, he had reached the bottom of the mountain, and his feet were wrapped in a thick coating of mud. Cold rain droplets pattered against his wilting leaf umbrella.
He circled around the side of the mountain and sighed, his feet dragging. He hadn't walked for long before stares drilling into him. He glanced up at Draken Capital's front gate, and the squadron of guards around it.
"We need to search through your things for the inspection," one said as he reached for the advanced healing book.
"Let me through," Doevm said with a bit of soulmana. "And forget I was here." The guards stood straight up with a vacant look in their eye, before opening the massive gate. Doevm threw his make-shift umbrella away as he stepped from the dark, quiet night to the bright, noisy city.
