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.
Creature (Part 3)
The creature towered over Doevm. Its black hair flew in every which direction, thousands of needle-like whips. Frank's face turned from human to a mess of wrinkles, similar to an aged ape. His enlarged eyes were like two moons, only with irises which were locked onto Doevm.
It took a step forward and…fell. It flailed around on the floor for a few seconds before getting up. A growl escaped from behind its fangs. It took another step and the ash sunk under its feet.
'Low intelligence,' Doevm thought. The creature slashed at the piles of ash. It would have been cute if it wasn't making a path right for him. He wasn't so foolish as to stay and watch. He promptly turned around and bolted.
The creature, seeing its prey run away, opened its mouth wide enough to dislocate its jaw. Its chest ballooned as it sucked in currents of air. The ash pulled it deeper into the ground. It lurched forward and expelled the air in a massive soundwave.
