"Very nice"

date: September 17, 2007

Standing atop the castle wall, the captain of the guard readies his men, the time of peace has ended, and war is upon them.

He calls to his men to ready the arrows as the goblins below cry their war cries and give shouts of bloodlust.

"We stand here, in defiance, for many years we have been hounded by these scourge! No more! Let not a single arrow fly from your bows until my signal... once given, let not a single arrow remain within these walls!" he shouted, waves of cheers spread throughout the men, a wildfire of courage and hope spread faster than any plague, and destroyed any thought of fear.

Lightning illuminated the night sky once more, the goblins had set foward in a rush, racing towards the castle walls. The goblins did not understand the language of men, but the sound of the hundreds of men atop of the castle wall certainly shook their will, and even within the biggest of goblins, fear had been instilled.

"FIRE!" Came a cry from atop the stone wall, one of the few words the goblins understood, staring up to watch the arrows fall, many goblins were sure their lightning fast reflexes would save them. Many realized their folly to late, for even while the lightning illuminated the dark night, how could one see through the wall of arrows, one to make the dark skies?

Author's Response:

ooooh, this story was truly epic to the core!

I loved the lightning illuminating the night sky. It truly resonates the strength of the soldiers, the absolute desire to CRUSH their enemy, and they the same!

A rage filled fire from both sides, and only the darkness for them to play in.

Excellent...

Thank you for this review Loki, if you are who I think you are, I wish you all the best. I had fun in your tribe. If you are not, and are confused by this statement, I apologize, it's just your name is very similar to a dear friend of mine ;).

I am glad you enjoyed the piece, I apologize for the late response, I hope you will one day read it.

"Very nice."

by: Alex-J

Two powerfull wizards start an epic duel. one rises skeletons and zombies from the ground and the other one calls the power of the sun to destroy them. Then, the evil wizard dispears. The holly wizard doesn't know where he is and so the evil one appears behind him with a venomous dagger and stabs him in the back. The white wizard has powerful healing magic but the poison is still stirring in his veins. Just before dying he has time to cast the sacrificia luminarea spell, wich kills him but makes him explode like a bomb of immense light energy and by that the evil wizard gets torn apart.

Thats what I felt from this music =3

The rest of the story I feel from your song will be in another review of another of your songs, where the evil wizard, who was very powerful, defies satan himself, to gain control of hell. While the white mage, seeks help from the almighty god.

Author's Response:

such a powerful and dark ending to a battle D:

White and holy mages are not usually equipped with the ability to obliterate everything in a 50 mile radius. That kind of magic is reserved for the peasants unaware of what they're just about to do :D!

But seriously, a truly epic battle, with a truly epic end! Thank you for the story and the review! I'm glad you liked the piece! I also apologize for the late response :(

"Yet once again, very image invoking..."

date: August 4, 2007

Sounds like a frantic battle between a group of beaten, battered heroes and an evil overlord or such. Or...Many other images come to mind...Love your work, LOVE IT.

October 19, 2007

Author's Response:

I hope every world that opens up is one you enjoy seeing :D! That is after all, why we make them right? The intention of this song was exactly what you wrote.

A damaged, worn down group of fighters, look at their last obstacle, and summon the rage they need for one last battle, to permanently destroy the evil thats taken over their lives!

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

I also apologize for the super late response :(

"nice loop"

date: July 24, 2007

Its got that classical sound, yet its very upbeat, and transitions well to loop. I was looking for something like this, a nice sound for a battle, keeping the classical sound to match your other songs i plan to use :D great job

"You had me at :01"

by: tasers
date: July 13, 2007

Reason?
I am a huge huge sucker for epic bells.

THERE MUST BE MOAR BELLS

July 19, 2007

Author's Response:

if I put more bells, then it would be an awesome song of bells! And then the other instruments would strike. I can't do with that >:(

Thank you for the review tasers, i'm glad you liked it!
