Don't Starve OST - EFS (Drum And Bass)

Camilla closed her account, but her songs remain! Long shot, my interpretation. I hope she hears it!

Long shot

This is probably my favorite of my Dark Souls inspired songs.  It's the album closer and sends the listener off with a positive message and a hope that they too will raise their flask and praise that sun.

LYRICS:

When I was young I used to travel far across this land
With a shield on my back and with a claymore in my hand
Though death seemed to surround and though my spirit often waned
I'd never trade one second of the hardship and the pain

Swords up for those of us that died
They didn't make it but they tried
But they'll be back to fight, you'll see
By the bonfire they'll be
Oh aimless wanderer, don't you know

That if you're lost and if you feel oh so hollow
Just call my name and I'll be there to take you home
I know the road may seem bleak
But I'll not have you see one more defeat
We'll carry on beyond all death and darkness

So draw your sword, string your bow
Hollows, humans, hunters, let 'em know
We'll never bend, we'll never break
We'll fight the dark no matter what it takes

And if it takes our souls, our fates
To satiate the dark's great hunger
Then we will wait at death's grim gate
And reawaken to the wonder
Of a land been torn asunder

I long to walk the ruined halls of the chapel and the burg
And journey down to Darkroot where some strange events occurred
I do remember fondly Anor Londo's sunny days
And I even reminisce about old Blighttown's poison maze

What's death but just a second try
Did they not warn us we would die?
Though I may falter, I may fall
Had some souls but lost 'em all
This undead still heeds the call

...

Pick up your axe, cast your spells
We may be dead but we'll still give 'em hell
With lightning spear and sunlight blade
we'll fight the dark no matter what it takes

...

So if your lost and if you feel oh so hollow
Just call my name and I'll be there to take you home
Though you may feel dread and fear
Our winding roads have led us here
Where Gwynevere will welcome us at last
When there is naught to do but cry
And all our estus has run dry
Even when we pine for better days
Still I say...

...

So raise your flasks, praise that sun
You and I, dear hollow 'til we've won
We'll battle through for Lordran's sake
And fight the dark no matter what it takes

A Hollow's Home

It Just Works

SPOILER ALERT / If you don't know who is Myla and you want to listen to this song, let me tell you the moving story of Myla, a cheerful miner insect, from the game Hollow Knight (You can read this by listening the song) :

You are a knight insect. Going through a path, you hear someone singing in a cave. You meet her breaking stones with a pickaxe, singing a rhyme from childhood. In a world hit by a plague that turns people into ferocious beasts, with few conscious person, it is a joy to meet a friendly person. But you must go in order to fight this plague. Even going, she begins singing all by herself, without any audience.

From time to time, you go back through the mines path. you took the opportunity to go see Myla, still undermining. She is glad that you go back to say hello. She suggests you take a pickaxe to go dig with her to find gems. Seeing her working, you listen to the same rhyme that lulled the childhood of the young insects of Hallowest. You decide to be a spectator of her concert.

You can also imagine that the story is told by two bards : Tae and Geuk, who sing and play the mandolin and the lute.

SPOILER : When you hear that the music becomes glaucous, listen at this moment (at 2:00) :

The plague is anchored in the underground walls. You think of Myla who is still in the mining caves. You dare to find her. The sounds of the peaks guide you but you do not hear any more singing. When you arrive, you understand that it is too late : The plague had begun to attack Myla. She continues the rhyme but moaning. You gently approach her, patting her shoulder but no answer. You're disoriented, you don't know what to do. You try to pull her to take her to the surface. Suddenly, she shows signs of aggressiveness by throwing her pick in your direction. Given the situation, you know that there is only one thing left to do : fight.

You stay on the defensive, you don't want to hurt her. you look for a solution to take her to the surface but the ferocity of the hits doesn't give you any respite. With the dreams nail, you try to read in these thoughts : The same song but no longer sings. After moving away from her, you realize that there is no solution. She is left to her fate. By charging your shot, you decide to make a choice : shorten its suffering. A last cry rings in the caves.

You recover your spirit, the sounds of the caves invade the atmosphere. You find Myla's body lifeless. You leave...

The first thing you can think of that is : OMG DIS IS SO SAD. But We can see something else : before killing her, you also took the life of many infected before. It makes you realize that before they were ferocious beasts, they all had a life, a passion, a goal. Whether it is to kill zombies, evil or infected, it is necessary to respect the lives of these people and not a reason to satisfy impulses. Life is too precious to be taken away so easily. It has been given to us, we must not waste it.


If you've gone this far, bravo ! I hope you enjoyed this experience to the feel train. I wanted to share my feeling of the best game I've played this year and one the most beautiful soundtrack by creating a musical fan art.

This is an original composition based on sfx of the game, ukuleles, my deep voice, additional instruments, inspiration from Hollow Knight's main theme and of course the sing of Myla from @Paper_Rabbits. :3

Hopefully this is a good one! Hollow Knight very quickly became my favorite video game ever(You can actually see my first playthrough of it here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxUbB_3RUOnbixRZMYxGBqo-FcpbClVsx ) so once the sequel was announced I was super excited. Then when I heard this for the first time I knew I had to remix it. Sorry it took so long to come out! Holidays and all that jazz.
