You Won't Have To

Arrangement for 8-Bit Music Theory Secret Santa 2022 event.
Original by StormyRaptor:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTWxoIpLztY

EWI:  https://soundcloud.com/kee-ba (Keeba on Discord)

This arrangement is a SNES-style metal-adjacent jazz/rock/metal fusiony kind of battle theme in the vein of Mystic Quest, Lufia 2, and Phantasy Star 4.  Kind of.
