For me the depths and most of it's soundtrack is some of the most calm times I have in deepwoken-When I'm playing a diver. The community there is unlike anywhere else in the game. It's the only place where I don't feel the need to start every encounter staying at the very edge of the distance where you can see chat.

Im on a goddamn quest to respond to every single new comment on this song as they arise as soon as possible. If I don’t get recognition for my efforts (tbh why would I) I will move on to another song and do the same… the parasite moves on…

new comment alert oh shit you gotta respond in 0.2 picoseconds or ur fired daniel

Daniel B. Why do you have 12k plays on this song 😅

I JUST REALIZED THE SECONDARY MELODY OF THIS SONG IS THE MELODY OF DIES IRAE (Gregorian chant)

Sage's favorite study music compiled into one playlist :D

Study

IUDEX ERGO CUM SEDEBIT,
QUIDQUID LATET, APPAREBIT:
NIL INULTUM REMANEBIT.

[...]

IUSTE IUDEX ULTIONIS,
DONUM FAC REMISSIONIS
ANTE DIEM RATIONIS.

( - a segment from the 'Dies Irae', a Gregorian chant)

Lacrimosa Dies Illa

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

( - William Ernest Henley, 'Invictus')

Oscillation

You measured risk, you took the chance,
Now what awaits, guess, in advance -
DANCE, puppet, dance! Dance if you can!
The flames have called the Ferryman!

( - Naktigonis)

Dance, If You Can!

we dance a burning sarabande,
the steps of a farruca grand.
the air grows frosty, earth grows cold.
all follows now an ancient mould -
a wounded gasp, a blazing fight
within a world of dying light.

( - Naktigonis)

A Sarabande Of Thunder

The winter breeze begins to blow,
It carries gently falling snow.
The first of many winter moons
Shines brightly as the card'nal croons.
The charming bird now sings alone
A lullaby for snow and stone.

( - Naktigonis, 'A Snowy Night / All Was Well')

A Waltz Of Snow And Knights

Calm Night || Decaying winter

"The lightning answers. A colossal knot of violent, violet light stabs through the sky. A sigil of fire! The thunder roars. Your crew wail and shriek. [...] The sigil's meaning is branded into your mind: the erroneous assumption that there will be a tomorrow.

When you blink, you see it. When you sleep you will see it. When you die you will see it."

( - Sunless Skies, 'The Storm That Speaks' interaction)
-----

"Tree-branches cast shadows on the walls of the cave. The light here is not violet, but the cold blue of winter mornings. This is why you came from the Surface. You thought you knew, but you did not, could not know. By the time you leave this place, you will forget again."

( - Fallen London, "Woods in winter" storylet)

The Killing Wind

"Impatient winds hound your vessel. Beneath their moan, you can hear whispered voices. They call to you, inviting you to leave your engine and join their revels in the vaults of the sky [...]."

( - Sunless Skies, 'The Whisperwinds' interaction)
-----

"A simple rite. Open windows; shivered words; a wind, welcomed in. Is it a comfort, to know you are not alone? To be watched by one of the capricious gods of the turning sky? Their attention can draw other, unwelcome things."

( - Sunless Skies, 'The Thing in the Mist' interaction)

Whisperwind

"While the statue is the raw material of nightmares, there is something soothing about the idea that even a beast like this might be harnessed; that there is the chance of such an ally, for those who crack the code of offerings and prayer. Whether it is actually listening, it is impossible to tell. The thought that it even might, however, is something to hold onto in the dark."

( - Sunless Skies, 'Carillon - An Overgrown Shrine' storylet)
-----

"The man who is traveling and does not yet know the city awaiting him along his route wonders what the palace will be like, the barracks, the mill, the theater, the bazaar. In every city of the empire every building is different and set in a different order: but as soon as the stranger arrives at the unknown city [...], he immediately distinguishes which are the princes’ palaces, the high priests’ temples, the tavern, the prison, the slum. This – some say – confirms the hypothesis that each man bears in his mind a city made only of differences, a city without figures and without form, and the individual cities fill it up.

This is not true of Zoe. [...] The traveler roams all around and has nothing but doubts: he is unable to distinguish the features of the city, the features he keeps distinct in his mind also mingle. He infers this: if existence in all its moments is all of itself, Zoe is the place of indivisible existence. But why, then, does the city exist? What line separates the inside from the outside, the rumble of wheels from the howl of wolves?"

( - Italo Calvino, 'Invisible Cities')

Kyrie

U.n. Owen Was Her  - L O F I    Touhou Project

"For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come 
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life."

( - William Shakespeare, 'Hamlet', Act III, Scene I)
-----

"My enemy is twice dead, and I still have him."

( - Iain Banks, 'The Wasp Factory')

... Hope you enjoy...

[LYRICS]
The enemy ascended beyond your control;
Or was that all your intention?
They have managed to demolish whatever we made,
But you're failing to comprehend...

If they can, they will easily butcher you whole,
While you're blinded by your depression.
I have gotten to the point where I'm just too afraid
That you're going to meet your end.

My screams echo out through the fire,
And your rival dares stand in my way...
Yes, this is a hardship most dire,
And one day, you will heed what I say:

This is my message to my master:
This is a fight you cannot win.
I think that past your great disasters,
Their victory stirs below your skin.

If you proceed, I will not blame you;
I will move forth and win your war.
But if I should die before you continue,
You shall have heard my final dying roar.

Roar Of The Jungle Dragon (Ingame Version)

So while I waited for Goozma news, I made this in an hour. Kinda liked it enough to keep it into the OST project as the first track; a mock-up title theme, if you will.

The Tale Of A Cruel World

currently working on the OST for Deepwoken, a Monad Studios game! B)
