"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.

'Whose instructions? What is this? What do you want from me?' Her head began to ache, a condition that even the ointment couldn't fix.

'Calm down?' She got to her feet and took up the mask of a proper servant. 'How can I calm down when there is a voice in my head!? We can't be seen talking or I'll get beaten again and you'll be thrown in the Dimmer. Whatever this is, please stop it.'
