Join the Authority and stop that Felinor!

Beat so badass it got me praising an authoritarian movement

etrea cooked with this still waiting on etreas response!

Me marching my way home while singing this, having a good time: =)

The neighbor walking his dog, completely unaware this is from a game: -0-

why cant i find this on any merchant ships 😭

i sing this everyday and my neighbors thing im deepwoken born

This one is among my favorite shanties to sing when going across the ocean with friends in a vc. I'm not sure any of them know how to improve their singing voice (though it is in dire need of it), but that makes it all the better

The Gideshu March is a popular marching song of the Central Authority - the iron-fisted guardians of the Central Luminant. Written in the year 1180 by August Gideshu, an Authority officer, the march quickly became popular among the rank and file soldiers, with many regiments choosing the song as their marching tune. Some even consider it to be the Authority's unofficial anthem - though the Authority elites' stance on this is not entirely clear.

i got bored and decided to make some vent music. yes, for the imperialist faction. lo-fi beats to commit warcrimes to ;)

this is the theme representing the Central Authority in the game - or at least a vocal reinterpretation of the theme by me. sometimes when i write melodies for Deepwoken, i like to come up with accompanying lyrics (fun fact, the Summer Company theme also has lyrics for it).

if you listen closely, you can hear the refrain part ('We would give our lives for the cause') play in the Starswept Valley ambience on guitar. B)

consider this a little something to make up for the fact that the Deepwoken OST Vol. 1 isn't out yet - things are taking a little longer than i would've liked (i literally only have the ferryman phase 1 & 2 tracks to remaster to be able to release the OST. but the FL Studio project files for those are SO LAGGY)! but i'm very close to wrapping up the release. expect some sort of announcement within the coming week.

LYRICS

We're masters of the oceans wide,
Custodians of relentless tide!
For the Authority we fight -
Within this dark a blazing light.

Hurrah, hurrah, three cheers for the cause!
We truth uphold, and also laws!
For the many, the few, the big, the small -
We would give our lives for the cause!
We would give our lives for the cause!

We're wardens of the valiant dead,
From shore to shore our boots will tread!
The furthest reaches we shall tame,
Bring order, peace, Adretian fame!

Hurrah, hurrah, three cheers for the cause!
We truth uphold, and also laws!
For the many, the few, the big, the small -
We would give our lives for the cause!

Hurrah, hurrah, three cheers for the cause!
We truth uphold, and also laws!
For the many, the few, the big, the small -
We would give our lives for the cause!
We would give our lives for the cause!

The Gideshu March (Bonus Track)

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!

"To reassert my rule, I sought out unscrupulous men skilled in the application of force. Tight-lipped and terrifying, these mercenaries brought with them a war machine of terrible implication."

( - The Ancestor, 'Ancestor's Memoirs: The Brigand Pounder', from the video game "Darkest Dungeon")

"Blood and destruction shall be so in use
And dreadful objects so familiar
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quarter’d with the hands of war;
All pity choked with custom of fell deeds [...]."

( - William Shakespeare, "Julius Caesar", Act III, Scene I)

"LACHESISM - longing for the clarity of disaster

[...] And yet, somewhere deep down, you find yourself rooting for the storm, hoping for the worst. As if a part of you is tired of waiting, wondering when the world will fall apart - by lot, by fate, by the will of the gods.

[...] The apocalypse is one of the oldest fantasies we have. But it's not about skipping to the end of the story. It's a longing for revelation, a revealing of what we already know but cannot see - that none of this is guaranteed, and there's no such thing as "ordinary life". That our civilization is just an agreement, one that could be revoked at any time."

( - John Koenig, 'The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows')
