shallow sleep - the ascent 01 (Patreon)

the first part, exclusively for you guys until the first chapter is finished and i can start posting it to webtoons for their webcomic contest!

as i mentioned a few times before, these two characters have been around since 2004 (or even 2003), and they are very, very dear to me. and i'm both excited and also a little nervous about finally sharing their story, as it is something very personal and close to my heart ;;;;

to summarise the plot:

Charon gets sent to the realm of the living to observe and learn how humans deal with life and death, in order to take over as God of Death in the future and gently help human souls cross the river to the afterworld, once their time has come.

On his journey, he comes across Leo, a boy who, unlike everyone else Charon had encountered before, seems to be able to see him. He doesn't know how that can be possible, but he will soon learn the reason for Leo's ability. And it will only bring them closer together.

(writing short summaries is the worst LOL)
