(See Siege of Canterlot for Part One)
Part Two:
Word of the siege had reached Canterlot mere days before the coming attack. Every able bodied person was expected to assist in the defense and preparing for the siege. The young, the infirm, and the female population were evacuated through the Crystal Caverns deep beneath the Citadel. Above ground, preparations are made in earnest: A new Arcano-Technology had been developed to help in the defense of the city should an army attack again, in the form of a city-wide shield generator. The defenders had complete faith in the generators, that they would be able to channel their magics into them, and they would keep them safe
...However, they hadn't accounted for the changelings' abilities to feed off fear in addition to love, meaning that the shield would not be enough to withstand the force of the swarm.

I'd like to ask that if you choose to use the free option when downloading the music, if you could share my songs with at least one other person sometime in the future - It's incredibly difficult to spread the word about my music by myself, so it really helps a ton!

moon slinger tripped, feeling the cold wet pools of rain against her coat while she looked up at the blazing fire around the Lunar Citadel. Fire that cruelly flashed red off the invader's golden armor. Moon Slinger started scooting back towards a wall while the Stallion's twisted face came into view. She heard a cruel chuckle from the earth pony as she hit against the wall. "Another Lunar heretic dead couldn't anyone" He said cynically as he revealed his blade from his armor. "Why?" Moon Slinger asked frightened. "Because your days of endless shadows and nights of pure terror will end right here, that nightmare of a princess that keeps you from the joy of light will pay." closing in on Moon Slinger. "Pay for the mares and stallions that tried so desperately to make her stop, and the heart of the sister she so pathetically shredded in half!" With the final words spewing from his mouth he thrust his sword at Moon Slinger. She closed her eyes waiting for the worst, but after an eternity of two seconds she heard a crack, not of thunder but of existence itself. As she opened her eyes she saw the same earth pony crumpled against the wall with a huge black crack in his armor. the pony struggled to get up but fell on the floor again, in front of Moon Slinger was Princess Luna panting before looking behind her to a frightened Moon Slinger. "My child of the night, run. This is my fight. "The smooth voice calmed down Moon Slinger, but soon that calm face broke into a stare of complete hatred. "Where are you sun tyrant?!" She yelled out at the night. Moon Slinger was petrified, never had she seen her mother of the night so angry. Then the night sky was burned away with the same cruel red as the fire. When a white mare came out of the sky, bearing wings that that burned with fire and plated from head to hoof in golden armor. The Mare landed next to Luna. The Hatred between the two was echoed through that eternity of a second until Luna broke the Silence; "Sister"
I am listening to this as it is pouring with rain out side, I have it on 1080HD with full surround with the back door open and windows open, the sound is awesome,
I sit here in the dark just listening, truly amazing.
Dunno about any of you, but I felt like this song is more like the peepers films before a battle. It's feels tense and suspenseful, but epic enough to be a perfect fit for those scenes where you see the enemy army approaching and your soldiers are running around getting ready for the coming siege. While every key character is also preparing.
Here's what I came up with in my head while listening to this. I saw Canterlot preparing for their final stand against an army of darkness that has now almost destroyed all of Equestria
I saw an army of darkness approaching canterlot preparing for the incoming battle. Applejack setting up the wall defenses, rainbow dash preparing the aerial units. Twilight with the other princesses, getting ready for what's to come. The others helping with the evacuation. Quickly everything is prepared. Archers at the ready, canons ready, aerial units in position, knights ready for the assault. When the song starts the fade. The enemy is close.
"Archers at the ready!"
The sound of bow strings pulling back. The enemy gets closer. The song ends. All anyone could hear was the final order
"FIRE!"
And Canterlot, no, Equestrias final stand begins.
Dunno just my imagination running wild, left out a lot of detail because this is a youtube comment. But anyways yea, amazing song, I really liked it keep up the good work.
Before anyone asks, I meant preparations before a battle. Auto correct switched that to peepers film for some reason.
Malenrick Ranz I like that concept!! I'm glad it evokes that level of imagination :3
From 1:36 to 2:00, i can just see Chrysalis and Celestia or Luna Staring each other down through the skies, serious goosebumbs!
+FlapJacks I'm really glad that it had that mental image, that's what I was going for :) I wish I were better at animation, or this could make a pretty interesting show :)
i saw the fields of war, an army marching towards the crystal empire
This was made about a few months ago...
AND THE EPICNESS SOMEHOW IS MORE AMAZING
HOLY... MY GOD
THIS IS AMAZING
HOOOOOOO
Somehow... I can imagine and feel this song, it's like.. everything is falling apart, but at the same, struggling for something and not giving up.
Great Job!! ^-^
SamXala If each song I make makes at least one person able to have new feelings that they didnt have before, that my definition of a song being "successful", and that makes my heart sing with excitement :) I'm so glad you liked it!
0:20 dude, I listen to EVERY SECOND of your music, and this MASTERPIECE is no exception
... that... was... so damn epic.
Subbed and can't wait for more. I really hve no idea what was going on, beyond it being amazing.
you can count on me. I listen to your music from beggining to end!!!! its the best!!! I wish I where as good as you are
+Malkaz 44 I appreciate it
I always love Defense of the Citadel, also didn't know the story behind it so deep!
Great as always.
Friendly reminder that the best way to support a you tuber currently is to rack up a ton of watch time on their videos. The algorithm for telling what's popular leans heavily on this to see what it should suggest to viewers.
Yep!!
This piece will definitely find it's way into the inspiration/background music I use for tabletop games and brainstorming. Nice work!
i am one of the pony's to listen to the full song and it was a very great song.
Thanks :D
командир snowfire not only u
Same!! (11 months later than your reply)
I love this music, I listened to it all the way through 20x... one because it was awesome, two my browser was broken and kept the song repeating until I fixed it.
I always think about these, but I forgot your channel name. Luckily I found my old account where I had a playlist of these. I'm so happy to hear them again. They are my favorite Orchestral pieces.
this is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont get how people just listen to your songs fro two mins! there crazy!!THIS SONG IS BOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well that was most enjoyable. That subtle rainstorm effect in the back ground and how the music faded eerily into it at the end was a nice touch in my opinion.
ScorpioHighlander Thanks, I was wondering how people would take such a long outtro :3
I needed an epic orchestral piece....and I found it right here....
I've just listened it from beginning to end. You've won a subscriber.
I could almost see the thousands of changelings in rows marching and flying up the mountain.
I honestly can't count how many times I've listened to this since I first discovered it. I love it too much.
I always have this mental image of Canterlot being an absolute warzone with Celestia & Luna's army being pushed back to the castle by an unknown enemy (Changelings?) then through a series of epic clashes start pushing them back.
That quieter part just after three minutes in is when reinforcements arrive through a hole in their defenses along with some regular ponies taking up arms. Then through a final push the Changelings are ejected out of the city.
The last bit with the thunder is Celestia and Luna staring out at the burning city with a couple of new battle scars.
This is absolutely breathtaking! One of my absolute favorite orchestral pieces of yours, I can listen to this on repeat all day omigosh. Absolutely beautiful..
I love how the music and the artwork just kinda blend together... it really helps me visualize an entire scenario.
I love this song because there's so much imagery and story line to this song. Beautiful. Wars and epic battles are two of my favorite things. My sister says it reminds her of the Battle of Hogwarts from Harry Potter.
I'd totally recommend listening to this for the full 10 minutes... 6:08 for the music, the rest in awe of what you just heard.
Somniis Scientia Officially among my favorite of comments here xD I'm really really glad you like it :)
You're truly amazing
MayakoLyyn Thanks :>
I have to say that this is nothing short of epic. It is a full, well toned piece full of energy and I love it! This, and the Siege of Canterlot make me want to find an epic clashing of armies piece and just...absorb it. This is my favorite type of music to just sit and let a story weave itself to. Keep up the good work!
+Lizzie Buckley thanks
Aurelleah I have just recently discovered your talented music compositions and have instantly fell in love with your work! As an enthusiastic instrumental listener I can appreciate the fine detail and passionate work you have created. I have listened to all your My Little Pony music and am an instant fan, especially with Defense of the Citadel and the Canterlot Siege! I plan to purchase your music on ITunes and leave nice comments there. Hopefully Daniel Ingram can feature your work on the show because this is really good! Maybe we can look forward to a King Sombra and his attack on the Crystal Empire? The comics for that one were really well done. Anyways keep up the good work with life, work, and your passion. I shall be following your work from now on! :)
+Honu Cao I'm glad to hear it ^-^ And thank you!! I can only hope that one day something like that could happen :P I've still got some ways to go though :D I always love it when people comment on the little things like that :)
WHY IS THIS NOT A REAL FANFIC?! I love this music.
I too am a pegasister and listen to all the wondrous you've done, keep up the good work!
Thanks!
Amazing. Nothing less of incredible.
2017 and this song is still going strong. probably my favorite of your work
i listened to the whole thing and its amazing its one of my fav things to listen to.
I am sorry for typing on such a comment on a older video but after listening to many of your songs, i was able to think of words that roughly discribed my liking of your music in words, you (who ever "you" or the reader is) do not have to read at all I wanted to just share my thoughts. What I like best about your music is that I can paint my own picture in my head and, if I feel creative enough, story in my head. I mean, I live the story you made for it but I am not able to find a lot of music that I can paint a picture of what it could be or I would like to make out of it. As I am sure you already figured this is art to me, it is beautiful art to be exact, it is art that can be molded into many more things if one has the creativity for it, I have a little bit but not huge amount of creativity, the many ways the song(s) can be thought of is breath taking, I don't know if anyone else can think the same way with your creation's or do the same with them but one thing's for clear your talented and amazingly talented. This is part of the reasons why I love your music and also the fact that your genre of music is so unique and interested me faster then most music genres with the classic instruments, plus the other songs with dub step and the classical instruments was amazing. The song genre kinda reminds me of Neo-classic just upgraded many generations I am probably mistaken but that is was I thought it sounded. Funny, I can't get a paragraph done in one day for a essay at school but get a paragraph for a comment done in a hour. As an ending to my very poor detailed, but opinion filled, comment I bid a farewell and thank you for who ever read this and I would like to thank Aurelleah for the beautiful music and inspiring music they made.
Absolutely stunning!!!!! I so wish I knew how to make music like this as well! Such a very great song to concentrate or daydream to!! :)
Thank you for taking the time to say that!
Wow, why haven't I heard of your music before? Great song! Now please excuse me while I go and listen to the rest of your music.
***** Glad you like it :P And probably because I'm not the greatest at spreading word of my music, I've been so focused on just making music I havn't had the chance to learn how to actually spread word. Which is kinda tragic D:
Dayumn. That's some good music!
Holy shit this is so good. Reminds me of all my line battles and sieges in mount and blade: napoleonic wars.
Das ist großartig 😍 WUNDERSCHÖN
To be honest I was expecting a sudden intensity increase from 3:00 and on, but this song is already awesome anyway XD
No but really, I love the song.
i just had to get off the live stream you were working on, only to find this piece of ear candy.
i must say, i think you rival Makkon, and he is near the top of my favorites list.
Glad to hear it
Thx you for putting the Link to the other videos
I have goosebumps.. this is amazing
That was really awesome! I loved the grand scale of it!
I love the mood the music sets great job
I enjoyed all the different elements of this piece; great job! /)
SilverWing Music Thank you :> I've heard some of your orchestral bits too, and I gotta say they sound very nice! Just saw I wasn't subbed to you, which is odd, cause I was certain I was. Anyways, subbed :) Glad to meet another composer /)
Truly enchanting... what a magnificent piece of art you have put together! This definitely got my attention.. I'm a huge music critique and I must say, I haven't heard something this good in a while! Sun Princess-Approved!
As always, THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!! YOur stuff keeps getting better and better. Amazing, congrats :D
Liquid Sunshine THanks :) If you think this is good, though, just wait for my latest song "Everfree (And Ever Strong)", it's nearly done. It's going to be the most motivational thing for bronies (and anyone who feels oppressed such as for religious reasons) to listen to :3
+Aurelleah After half a year I keep returning to listen to this song. It's been a long time, keep on rockin'
This soundtrack, if I can call it that, is really cool
Thirty seconds in and i already like where this is going.
I can't wait for the fourth one
This is an awesome song to listen to when painting.
I agree!
I love me some snare.
I don't know what to say actually, it's that amazing.
Ah the epic sense of standing in the highest tower has your city burns. I can almost feel the sorrow of the defenders and the fury of the attackers but there is an underlying emotion. A most magnificent song overall and it carries the story quite well.
Grand Diplomat Thanks for the amazing description :> Maybe I should add an annotation asking viewers to comment on the story, perspective or viewpoint they got whilst listening to it :>
Aurelleah That would be cool. Will there be a more expounded on version of this story?
Grand Diplomat The next song expands a bit on what took place in this song (when It's completed). Part of me wants to keep as many of the lyrics and musical parts to be as open-ended as I can, cause I want the story to "tell its self".
The problem with that is that if it's too open-ended, it loses its sense of direction. I'm still trying to find the balance there :P
What I might do is have one version of the album entirely instrumental, and another version redone and remastered with lyrics, telling one big story across all the songs. Decisions decisions :P
Aurelleah I like the idea of getting two albums but won't that entail a fair amount of extra work for you?
Grand Diplomat Yeah, but when it comes to music, "work" is very enjoyable ^-^ It's something I can do during periods of "no inspiration", where I'm at a brick wall with my other songs :>
This sounds so amazing!
Nice! Fits so much into XCOM 2 avenger defense mission imo.
ohhh!!!! I thought it would be fun to use this for fight scenes inspirations!
I listened to this song for two hours on loop while drawing, I LOVE IT
i even have a playlist that has some of them in it
Edit: only 17 actually and SO FAR they're the only one's I've heard yet but STILL
Edit 2: I forgot how many ive added now
ok
I've said it before - your work is amazing
but this one...
...got you a new patron. Can't afford much, but I will do what I can
This is soooooo good! i love the rain sounds in it. another amazing song from you :-)
WyntersSky Thanks for sharing
I think I'm going to cry... It's amazing...
It sounds amazing, you are really good!!!
+Atsuko Kirikya Thanks fam
OMG! i love this ... ive been looking for some music to mmo to and these orchestrals are the perfect kind of music i was looking for :D
I'm sure the reason a lot of people don't make it past two minutes is because they've heard enough to know they want it. So they download it and dismiss the video, not knowing/considering that you might benefit from the watch time. Just my take on it, atleast.
Fantastic piece, by the way!
hadn't thought of that thanks!
This is amazing! I literally gasped when I saw how little subs you have, you deserve so many more.
wolfe Thanks - Yeah, I wish I could have more, and I've gained quite a few thanks to people sharing my music so far though :) Hopefully people dont lose the hype and keep sharing :3
i love the whole song
You're freaking talented..
this gives me goose bumps, and make me feel inspired at the same time.
+Paladium Earth I'm glad it makes you feel that way! ^-^
Always a big fan of your work... recent fan, though. Your AMAZING "luna's future" lead me to all your other works. I love the story conveyed here.
I'm really glad you found it and like it ^-^ Thank you for taking the chance and checking it all out!
Oh wow, you weren't kidding! This one's very powerful, and I love the story that goes along with it :D
I'm glad you like it
picture is beautiful, perfectly it demonstrates is how I see Luna, but the music itself is no longer, she reminds me of the majesty and I do not see Luna, and I never saw
Who even listen 2 min of your music it's so good
EPIIIIIIIIIIC!!!!!!! TOTALLY EPIC!!!!
+FireSpitter So much so!! Im glad you like it :)
I think I found my favorite artist
Pretty good. Although I must say my favorite part wasn't the music, but the fact that I've found another person who takes time out of their busy day to answer as many comments as they can. :)
+Gearhead Gears Absolutely! Every single one of them means a million worlds and more to me, Its sincerely squee-inducing to know that people take the time out of THEIR day to enjoy my efforts
I know! I feel the exact same way when people watch my videos!
great art work and song
Definitely an epic piece, you have earned yourself a supscribe.
TheDartrunner Thank you so much!! That means a lot to me ^-^
Aurelleah
I am probably going to write something short inspired by this, while I a procrastinating studying for finals.
That'd be neat, and I know the feeling. I'm in mechanical engineering and I've got finals this week, and here I am working on new music instead of studying xD
Aurelleah I have the same words with Dartrunner, epic piece and sub! :)
Thanks for the download links! I took the free one.. for now. I'll come back when I've got some bits to spare and drop a donation. In the meantime, I have new tracks to add to my mp3 player..
Aulakauss Youre welcome! And I appreciate it :) I hope you enjoy it!
Really EPIC!
Mind blown, somehow you broke the walls of my imagination and made it bigger than i can handle! great job /)
+Doom Dan Thank you(\ I'm glad to hear you feel that way :)
sounds great!
Thanks!!
I love it!
Good job I really like it
Court Laro Thanks :>
Love it, so epic!
Really nice... i have nothing else to say
