  • Exams are finished and I finally got to finish a song I've been sitting on for a little while. This is the first one I've written wholly on piano, and since it isn't my main instrument I'm pretty proud of what I was able to create within that limitation.

    Lyrics
    Is this what I've become?
    A man on the run from ghosts of the past;
    When I fall, will this empire fall with me?
    Say, what do you see when you gaze into me?
    All I see is a pawn of the Assembly,
    Just a child whose mind went wild.
    And this war would end with the death of the three-headed beast.
    Don't fall on your knees.
    They kill the pauper and rob the Queen,
    Death, destruction, no in between.
    I'll turn back time and bring death to Cerberus.
    Still the fire burns inside my mind,
    The blood of my father calls my name,
    And the cries of my mother pierce my soul.
    Life - what is the cost?
    Cause I paid the price and felt the loss.
    My home burned to ashes, and from those ashes I was born.
    I'll rain fire down from the heavens,
    And purge the earth of death itself, and rid us of this curse.
    Follow me into the flames of villainy, we'll end its reign.
    I'll turn back time and bring death to Cerberus.

    Listen with your eyes closed and the line “I’ll call fire down from the heavens” gives an amazing visual of Caleb casting 9th level Meteor Swarm.

    Whenever I listen to this, I have the mental image of the Mighty Nein attending a ball or party in Jorhas, and Caleb just seeing a piano in the center of the room and starting to go at it with the Bright queen and Essek just watching in awe from a distance, Caleb using major illusion to make literally fire fall all around them like shooting stars as he gets to the climax.
    TLDR: I can imagine him singing this.

    Just from the intro I'm getting Freddie Mercury, Phantom of the Opera, Bowie and then that voice. Wow-o-wow. This is the dark brooding burning Caleb I've always imagined. If there was a Bond Movie called Cerberus, this could be the theme. It's amazing. It's iconic. YES.

    My main villain/anti hero i write about a lot has similar vibes to Caleb. Tielaun is a half demon who's mother died giving birth to him, and grew up deformed with no family except his brother. His actual arc is a lot different than Caleb, but they deal with a lot of similar themes and emotions and the music you make for Caleb is beautiful and fits him so well. Its wierdly validating to see people making art about the type of character I've built most of my writing around
