Chapter 7.5: A Gravedigger's Task

Cole Weavers
About this episode

A gravedigger's job is a lonely, but important one. They, who lay down the dead, are their final caretakers. There is a cleansing ritual to laying a corpse in the earth, but if those hands are spoiled with the filth of ill intent, so too is the earth.

 

Written and Narrated By: Cole Weavers

Sound Production and Editing By: Matt Black

Theme Song By: Charlie PS

Cover Art By: Vincent Wah
