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.
Jumping at Shadows
With the body of their assailant at the center of the formation, Doevm, Frey, and Elero scanned the fleeing, panicked crowd, confirming visually that there were no threats among them, however remaining on alert. If the incident with Owen had taught the group anything, it was that the goddess's followers could be anyone. In addition, in a city as large as the Polyglint Mines, there was bound to be more than one.
Doevm let a moment pass before subtly gesturing to a nearby rooftop. "Frey, monitor the area."
Frey nodded in confirmation. A flaming, white aura condensed around his eyes and life essence condensed around his legs. With a single bound he was perched at the high ground, the entire street under his watch. Since he could see souls directly, there was no need to search around; it rendered shadows and cover mute.
Doevm was about to turn around when Frey suddenly called over: "Doevm."
