Heya everyone!
Here's the conclusion of the first arc of "Infinite Eclipse: Prequel's Finale" - the epilogue of the Molten Spike arc!
Last month I released a track named "Badlands Meltdown", a boss/battle theme between the Wings of Destruction and Ember & Thorax, and I saw some comments in the video asking what happened to Ember and Thorax.
Welp, in this absolutely fantastic animatic Amyntha made - here's the conclusion of that part of the story!
This is "Thorax' Quietus", a reorchestration of Thorax' UEP theme. Hope you'll enjoy this animatic (you might already have seen it on Amyntha's channel)!
In any case, here are some words from Amyntha:
"The end of the Molten Spike Arc in Infinite Eclipse: Prequel's finale has arrived...
An animatic half a year in the works, and a year and a half in planning, is finally done!
The animatic portrays the end of the Molten Spike Arc, Thorax and Ember are fighting hard to save their friends and subjects from the goddesses.
Thorax is reminded of all those he lost while he passes on to the afterlife and he is confronted with his last memories again.
It's finally done!!
I thought of this animatic back in 2022 when I was in Canada listening to Thorax' UEP theme. When I pitched my idea to Jyc he told me it was close to the actuall cannon. So I adjusted the story but had to wait for a year before I could start on this animatic. I ended up starting and consulting with Jyc often about the different scenes. He then mentioned he'd like to change the song and make one specific for this animatic! To give Thorax and the others their proper send off in this story.
(Also we kept kinda overtaking eachother on the emotions part in this animatic, sorry everyone ^^")
I noticed a big growth in my work during the making of this animatic causing the scenes to be looking sometimes quite different from eachother. But I'm still proud of it, definitely cause it was planned to be just a greyscale sketch animatic... heheh... why do I do this to myself?
Thank you all so much for watching this!!"
(PS: It is not in the animatic because it's off-camera, since the animatic is about Thorax, but just before arriving and saving Thorax from Molten Ocellus, Ember just had to deal with Molten Smolder as well. She did that, then went to help Thorax as he didn't had the guts to deal with Molten Ocellus himself)

When Chrysalis' tyranny was overthrown...Thorax hoped it was a time for peace eternal...it was anything but...
Poor Thorax... War is a scary thing especially when your at it's center as to gain something you might lose everything, though tyrants typically view losses as a minor set back in order to dominate the other side no matter who or what gets caught in the cross fire, but despite all possible odds those at the center will keep fighting in hopes that one day their sacrifices will possibly save what future that others may have. Rest in peace for those who have fallen and may you be able to find better home in the afterlife away from the molten and crystallized as Nerath no longer has shackles on your mind and Aquasha no longer has lava flowing through your veins.
Fortunately, Ember made sure Thorax wasn't going to be transformed into a Molten afterwards
@@JycRow That is good, I just hope he'll be able to rest in peace along with the others who have fallen.
During scenes like this, I wish there was just one character who wouldn't mourn, but laugh. Not at the death, but for the life well lived. One who would revel in what is being fought for. One who would lift the last fighters from their despair after the last several incidents had accomplished nothing but make their efforts feel even more pointless.
If there is a light at the end of the tunnel, sometimes, all it takes is just one to see it, even if they don't live long enough to see others find it. And if not? Better to die in defiance than become a monster in a world that won't be e far behind you.
Thorax marching through the graves of fallen changelings would fit so well in the Equestria at War universe.
"Damn, I was not expecting to cry so quickly. At least it can't get any worse."
"Oh hey, it got worse."
This brought tears to my eyes so fast. I knew that Thorax was going to die, it was the only way to stop the Wings of Destruction.
I'm glad that they get to be together on the other side.
This really makes me want to see more of Thorax's trials and tribulations of a King. You've depicted beautifully the had choices that must be made when a nation is faced with conflict. Seeing Pharynx and Ocellus slowly disappear made my heart ache, well done!
Thank you!
Thank you again for making a complete new song for the Animatic and making it the final sendoff for these awesome characters!!
I still smile at the fact that this one shower thought turned out to be cannon and gave spark to this animatic I worked hard on with your help!
Now time to learn how to storyboard officially in my college course and maybe the next thing I come back with will also be IE related
OMG!!!!!! I felt so emotional watching it. Honestly, music is one of the factors that helps improve the experience, and the author did an extremely good job in that part (it's truly amazing). But I have to say, I feel that the plot is also an element that the author has done very uniquely, which makes me feel truly admired.😍👍
Thank you very much!
So... what do you do when you feel like you've failed your entire race.
That you feel like your weakness or inability to save everyone you cared about haunts you.
It doesn't matter if it is true or not, you feel like you have to attone, unable to fogive yourself.
After all that, is seeking death in battle penance or an easy way out?
It reminded me a lot of Fallout: Equestria - Project Horizons and Blackjack
What happens when you mix an animatic with a sublime and poignant song? Well, a wonderful story full of emotion, of course... Perfect match !
Happy you liked the video! =D
and so has fallen one of the great commanders, his sacrifice was not in vain and with him took down one of the most powerful tools the molten had over them, and avenged the death of his family and friends. Thorax may not have ever really felt like he was a strong individual, that he'd ever really have the backbone to stand up and really be the commander he was needed to be in this dark and gruesome storyline - However, I think his final move showed that to be false, and showed just how strong he truly was - he just had no wish to fight.
At least he didnt went down without a fight like a true king
Good lord, I'm on the brink of tears. I wasn't expecting it to be so emotional!
Eheheh, sorry :3
Rest now young king your duty complete
Wow, this is just utterly fantastic. If you could do your entire story/script this way, with your music in the background. Awesome-taculare..
Happy you like it!
Ah fuck. I didn't expect to be emotionally destroyed on Thanksgiving. XD
Amazing job, Jyc. You packed this with so much damn emotion.
Eheh, sorry :3
@@JycRow Don't apologize when you don't mean it. Lol! Seriously though, it hurt in a good way. Love the song, love the animatic.
So... did Spike go on a rampage and kill them all?
Incredible in any case, both the music and the imagery
Spike was killed and revived by the Goddess of Destruction, becoming one of her many undead puppets. He scorched the entire Changeling Kingdom.
That video is the continuity of several video about a long story project of mine, called Infinite Eclipse (infos in description)
Not really the Changeling Kingdom though - he arrived at the Badlands where Ember and Thorax were projected after the revival of the Goddesses. Changelings were there in the war between Solar and Lunar, though, back in the beginning of IE
Always a good day when jyc row posts
Brb sobbign
Amazing art! I love the storytelling! I am so sad for Spike!!
Thanks! :D
I feel really bad for Thorax for everything he lost.
Fortunately (or unfortunately), he was able to join them again afterwards, in death
I haven't seen the other videos yet, but I'm already crying
This is absolutely beautiful with music and art. Must have taken quite some time to make! Poor Thorax and pretty much everyone in this story 😅😢
Thank you very much! As Amyntha said, it took more or less half a year to make the animatic!
@@JycRow Thank you both for the hard work for this masterpiece!
It’s not a shame to cry like this,it’s very heartwarming😭
Sad bug pony noises.
Great work.
RIP bugs :(
Is simply art, is really beautiful this animatic, the history of infinite eclipse is so god
The music reminds me a lot the ones from Lord of the Rings, it's so beautiful and emotional 😢
You can feel the characters' emotions and the last panel is just so sad and yet, you can just smile in the same time ❤
Thank you!
1:10
What makes this semi heartwarming is that Ocellus and the other changelings are alright. Safe in the afterlife, waiting for their friends and family to join them
Increible animation, I can't wait for the next arc.
Thanks! Hopefully soon!
Next arc will be a standalone video, though I'll test a few things to see if people like it that way as well!
Man this was gut punching, but amazing
Oh my gosh!! Y’all are amazing!! And now I’m crying my eyes out 😂 seriously, great work, both of you!!
Thank you very much!
It was very beautiful and sad it went straight to my heart ps: he is one of my favorite mlp characters
Thank you for the video ❤
#MLP
#Thorax
Happy you like it!
This is so deep.
Sad, yet oh so powerful! I must say, its quite a masterpiece to behold.
Glad you like it!
О боже мой! Это так круто! Я тронут этим видео до глубины души! Спасибо вам за ваши усилия над анимацией и музыкой!
Gorgeous and poignant. Poor Thorax suffering the heavy toll of the war.
I absolutely loved this... Makes me wonder how a full animated series around this music would be?
I wish I had the budget to do something like that (only for IE:Origin though, because Hasbro wouldn't be happy if I did that for the Prequel, using their characters xD)
@@JycRow Fair enough... Tho there are still people doin it so I guess it depends on person ? ... idk. Otherwise keep up the great work ya have been doin music wise and any smaller things like this
Im sobbing right now
Marvelous job ❤
Thanks!
That’s so cool, I had already seen it in amytha’s channel and it turned out incredible 🤩
Since this arc just ended, I wonder what the next one will be 😆😆😆
Yeee she did amazing! :D
Next one might be a standalone video, featuring Shining Armor, Cadance, Twilight, Flurry Heart and Zecora!
@@JycRow :O 🤩, can’t wait to hear what you have in store for that part of the story 😉💙💙💙
I love this! Amazing work both of you!
Thank you SPIB
@@JycRow
Thorax..
RIP :'(
It's awesome! 🥲 I can't hold the tears 😭, it's really beautiful❤ and hard to watch xd
Eheh, thanks and sorry! :3
@@JycRow don't worry, keep up the great job🤘👌
Good Animatic
Thanks!
Its 1:42 in the morning and I'm bawling. Rest in peace Thorax. Your sacrifice wasn't in vain.😊
Would you do only My little poney or you have other series in mind to inspire you because many would like The Child from the Stars aka. The Collector and Bill Cypher now that we have Discord 😅🥺😇🤓
As for now, my main focus would be my own story - Infinite Eclipse - that is crossover with MLP for the prequel (so, the songs here), but original with the books, but also plan to make other songs like FF14 songs and ¨Pokemon songs eventually
Very moving
Здравствуйте Juc Row это трагедия битва Двух Королей Торакса и Спайка ( хоть Я и знаю то что Спайк передал Скипетр Эмбер и она теперь Повелитель Драконов но из начально Спайк добрался до него Первы не без помощи Эмбер) и это хорошо то что она освободила Спайка от теронии.Я представляю эту Троицу как всегда весёлую вместе идущую к Пинки за Кексиками.Покойтесь с миром Друзья скажет на их могилах Эмбер, физическия Я всегда теперь буду одна но духовно Я смогу опереться о ваше плечо поддержки и в час отчаиния и скорби и без силия Я буду в споминать нашу первую с вами встречу и черпать силы для Борьбы с Теронией Угнетение Страхом и Печалью.
И ещё один вопрос Jyc Row если можно куда у вас пропала песня про Дискорда на Канале?
Тяжело... Тяжело...
Слишком, я даже сейчас рыдаю каждую ночь вспоминая это...
I wonder how twilight gonna feel about spike…
I don't think she'll react the same way she did when Chrysalis threatened to tear off Spike's wings as a manipulation tactic during the final battle against the Legion of Doom. Less "No, please don't!" and more "Those monsters have taken everything from me. My kingdom....my mentor....my friends...and now, they've taken him, too. I won't let them take anycreature else!" Remember how Twilight kicked Tirek's ass after he blew up the Golden Oak Library? She is NOT the kind of pony you wanna piss off. And if she becomes a Scion (like I predict she will), she'll become even more of a force to be reckoned with!
The smile at 2:15 when she was beheaded, it makes you wonder if the host(?) is still in there somewhere, unable to do anything except watch through their eyes at the destruction caused by this body, unable to even express their sorrow through crying. Maybe this is how the term sweet death came to be
I took it as that's what Thorax chose to see when Ocellus was finally put to rest. The smiling, happy go lucky changeling he once knew....even though that changeling was no longer there. The scene was shown through his eyes, after all. Thorax knew the *real* Ocellus would be happy to be set free, were she still alive. So that's what he saw in that moment.
RIP Thorax :'(
@@JycRowDoes that sound like bullying to you, or is it just me?
Amooooooo❤❤❤❤
Damn, is anyone going to survive this ?
< / 3
Is Thorax the last Changeling?
According to what the ending seemed to tell me, Thorax either perished during the final battle between him and Molten Spike- or had a near death encounter to see his closest healthy and well in the skies far above.
Nvm i googled Quietus.
Its his death. Final standing.
Jyc has confirmed that during the actual eclipse it'll have to be all new characters. None of the characters we know and love will survive to infinite eclipse proper.
This wasn't really just a decision on jyc's part but his hands are tied to avoid lawsuits from hasbro.
@@alphamaccao5224 damn, I knew the death count would be high but not that high
@@alphamaccao5224 Understandable.
In theory, it appears he *was* the last changeling
There's no way the five to four remaining captains will win so what's the point fighting? I felt bad that Thorax might already lost the battle, sacrificing himself to save Ocellus and Spike. But worst is he may have turned into Molten? Now how will Ember and her teammates will stand the chance? I wonder if Virtus's staff can take down the Goddesses Sisters of cruel Infinite Eclipse? But overall this is well animated and how sad and deep the story goes on.
That's, kinda, the point of the story. They can't win, there's no hope for them, but they keep fighting nonetheless, because that's the only thing they have left.
If your choices are between 2 tyrant goddesses who would strip free will from the equation as they destroy the world, or die, the only logical choice would be death. But if you’re going to die, wouldn’t it make more sense to die doing everything in your power to save the corrupted? To die fighting? To do everything in your power to ensure their victory is as slow and/ or unenjoyable as possible?
If they can at least do their best for their friends not to be transformed into Molten or Crystallized, meaning having their bodies used against their will, then it's already a small win for the UEP
welp, so much for the decivingly empowering music of heroes shall vanquish. that's one EP leader down, wonder how the rest will follow?
In the end, all evil will have their judgment. Though the world will be gone in the annihilation of the old world, the new world will be more then the previous. Much like our fight with the Devil, the fight is done till God says it done. In the end, the devil has lost his power, and his fate is sealed in the pit of fire. The side of Good, always has the last laugh.
Well ,so much for that plan ,not even thorax and ember were able to take spike down
They actually did tho
@@JycRowjust fully read the description, so than thorax sacrifices himself to do it? Dang 😢
Holly hell
How long it took to mek?:)
The art took me about half a year (with breaks seeing as I did have other priorities too), the planning of it was actually quite fast XD
The music I think took about a month if I remember correctly when jyc told me he would make this and when he came to me with the finished version
@@AmynthaEszti impressive trully
this kinda stuff always makes me sad-cry in the best ways! @X@
Я один заметил, что сюжет строиться так: о нет Селестия стала Дейбрейкер, о Луна подняла восстание, а не, она стала найтмермун, о всё объединились что бы их победить и убили их, а не, из них вылезла неведомая дичь и всех убила, о есть сопротивление, а не, Торакс помер
Waaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It hurt me so much that I hated it!!!
Thorax...
Ocelus...
Spike...
WAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!
made me cry!!
Please Ember...WIN!!
Makes me wonder what happened to chrysalis in this Story, would she still be alive or was she turned into a crystalized/molten? I wonder the same for sombra seeing as he has a thing with crystals too. I got so many questions, also can't forget cadence too! wheres cadence :< ?
Is he now..... in a better place
I know you said that none of those from G4 would make it to the eclipse story proper, but I cannot help but feel pain each time one is confirmed to pass, in one way or another. Be it corrupted or just fell in battle.
