Description: Written by Rab McCaullich and Dougie MacFinn

Malhann of Ashenhall is my larp character for Empire. She's a bard and any songs here by 'her' are songs I've created to be sung around a fire, often with multiple voices joining in. 
With thanks to Andrew Ruddick for his amazing guitar addition

This one is more a trance than a song :D

The wind of fortune (Malhann)

The first song Malhann took to Anvil! One for the fallen.

Emma Vieceli's Album

They call them heroes (Malhann)

It's cleverer than it might first appear, I hope.

Courage of the Mountain full.m4a

A very silly Malhann track first played at Empire E2 2023. Joined by Tarik (Andrew Ruddick) on the guitar and extra vocal flavour. To the bards of Empire : you rock. To the patrons of the bards of Empire: you rock more. 

Pay your f****ing bard

Second attempt at recording one of my first ever songs. Still not entirely happy with the mix, but it makes for a fuller sound than the original "singing into my phone" version.

Nowhere I'd Rather Be (v2)

Lay Me In Fire

Sounds from Wednesday morning

"Stop! Please!" 
The Cambion woman begged. She looked on as her daughter held a blade to her own skull and began sawing through one of her horns under the command of the brutish Thule orc standing over her. Gritting her teeth Narelle forced the rusted metal through the ivory. Trembling, she held out her hand. Still clutching her bloodied horn. His grey face peered down at her with a sickening joy painted across its features. He paused for a moment, and grinned. And without breaking eye contact he said, quietly,
"Take the mother away."
 Narelle felt her stomach drop. She watched helplessly as her mother was dragged kicking and screaming through the dust-choked hallway. Overwhelmed by rage, brought to a crescendo by the pain in her head, Narelle hurled her broken horn at her captor with an almighty cry striking him square in the back of his skull. The orc turned to face her once more, a terrible fury burning in his eyes... 

Ivory Daggers is a song set and written within the world of Empire, a festival larp in the UK.
It tells the tale of a Cambion woman and her family, living under the tyrannical rule of the Thule when they seized the Runeforges of Treji in 373YE.

Inspired and derived from "Age of Agression" From The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Ivory Daggers

Written by Rab McCaullich and Dougie MacFinn

Highlanders and Islanders

A song written by Narelle as she yearns for her home, Hercynia. Having recently been reunited with her long lost friend, Artek, he and Narelle reminisce over the memories of their past and the home they once knew...

Narelle Brídín is an original character created for Empire, a festival larp in the UK. 
These are her songs, her tales...her legacy.

Call to the Mountains

"Wear your tattoos, your scars with pride; they're proof that you've come this far and survived."
Life as a Navarri is not always easy, dangerous moments can spiral quickly and leave us beaten and broken. But we are never ones to give up.

A song written for and dedicated to my bestest friend and the strongest person I know.
