adventure afterlife nanowrimo13 romance war

Naomi wakes up in a strange place, with a debt to be paid. This is a city at war, and she soon learns that the rules here are different than the ones she used to know. Partnered with a veteran in her new role, she should be able to navigate her new life. Unfortunately, he's more likely to make a sardonic comment than lend a hand. Soon, she is plunged into political intrigue and a city wide territory dispute between four factions - one for each god. As she learns more about the inner workings of the city, she begins to suspect that there is much more at stake than just territory. 
Worst of all, she's already dead. Welcome to the afterlife.All Rights Reserved

Rachel is... dead and she journeys through the underworld to see where she truly belongs. I know this isn't the normal kind of thing that I post on here, but this was the story I was writing for NaNoWriMo 2017 so I figured I'd share. This is my first time attempting to write a novel, so I apologize if it doesn't turn out too well. Also, this is just the first draft that I have decided to publish.

Guardian Reapers - NaNoWriMo2017 by Savy_Pearson

Where do you go when you die? For this kid, it's Purgatory. In fact, quite a few visit Purgatory, but most everyone moves on. Not this kid. They've been saved, by Death himself, for a very different mission. They will be reaping and advising souls, keeping the very balance of the universe. They will be the newest guardian reaper. ____________________________________ He raised the scroll again and proceeded reading. "We have evaluated your life, and you do not clearly fit into a category of the afterlife. For this reason, you have been sent to purgatory to be advised. After your trial period, I will decide where you fit, or whether you'll need a second trial for advising." He paused, looked up at me, and frowned. "What's your name?" "Why?" "It doesn't show up on the document. It should fill in automatically, the second you've been assigned for advising," he explained. "Odd. Very odd. Come with me, you're a separate case." "Separate from what?" "Everyone else, of course." ______________________________________ (Written for NaNoWriMo2017)
