O Coveiro
Script: David Stéfano · Cover and art: Patrick Costa



Foreword. “In a village far from everything lives a humble young man with a simple, honest trade, until one misfortune puts his sanity to the test. Evil dwells even in the plainest places, after all. This is the premise of a story woven into the events of Asleep: Act 2, the game’s second episode, born from one of the stretch goals of our Catarse campaign, at first only for backers. From the start of the game’s production we have flirted with the idea of multimedia works that connect to each other: pieces that stand on their own but add to the game, and vice versa. And so O Coveiro (The Gravedigger) was born, one of the first multimedia works of the Asleep universe, with others planned, and not only comics. Another webcomic is already in the works, just waiting for the outcome of the next chapter of the adventure, in Act 3. We hope you enjoy it; it was made with great care and affection. It is more than a stretch goal; it is a story rich in nuance, feeling and, why not, “trauma”, after all it is an Asleep story. Enjoy!” — Dex Drakon, creator of Asleep.





The headstone reads: “Zeferino Souza. Beloved father, grandfather and friend of the birds.”
