"Well, everyone was doing a story, here's mine."

date: September 15, 2008

The setting begins in a war-torn country. Aarof, a friend of Raskiel, a soldier from the opposing force, has a decision. Will he kill his defeated comrade? Will he destroy one whom he called friend?

Raskiel lays on the ground, wondering how this came to. How his friend must lay a finishing blow upon he who he knew from infancy, when war was a term they used to define an event that was hundreds of years old.

Aarof drew his sword as he walked to the man. Memories flooded throughout his emotions, fishing by the lake. Him catching a bass and boasting it to his friends while the humble Raskiel released his fish which would have served at least two more.

A tear passed down his cheek, standing there before Raskiel. "Do it, my friend, for I wish no more to see this war torn world which we call home", muttered Raskiel.

Raskiel closed his eyes, preparing for death. Nothing came. A spatter of blood lay before him. "As do I, friend" choked Aarof, blood gushing from the mouth,"As do I."

God, I feel like crap. Now I made myself even sadder, but I'm happy with the little story I made. :)

"a story"

date: June 5, 2008

long time ago. the holy and the unholy god's armys fighted agest each other. bone from bone, soul to soul grabbed from evils hand. when it was over and the holy one. two heros thought were dead had little more time to live. when they died. they died with a kiss.

"Astounding."

date: May 30, 2008

Your music is very moving, and unbearably emotion-filled. I've shown this to 5 people, 3 of which began to tear up and ask me to change it to something less passionate. Not the exact words, but close. I love your music, and this song is probably the best example of your ability to extract emotion through song. I enjoy your work immensely and hope to hear more of it.

"Why?"

date: May 27, 2008

has it come to this, the man wonders, as he looks across the field and sees his own brother staring back at him. in the charge, both lock in mortal combat. at the end of the melee, both stand, equal in strength, each unable to back down. the gods take pity on the brothers and turn them to stone, a monument to wars atrocities. now peace reigns and people gather once a year to mourn for the brothers sacrifices.

how sad... the gods work in mysterious ways for sure, if their pity turns them into stone...

Still a very moving story Ken, thank you for sharing it, i'm glad you liked the song, thanks again for the review!

"this is what it sounds like"

date: February 26, 2008

"We won the war." he said. His friend bent down and scooped up a handful of charred earth that was once the glory fields of his home. Fallow the golden flowers all the way to Shallum Falls they would say. But not today, yes the war was won but at what cost. Was this land so precious to them that they had to burn it down rather then give it up. He pondered deep in his heart as the dust was carried off by the wind both mournful and wanting to repent. The enemy is gone, but what could they do now. A little girl walks up the hill where the warriors stood surveying the land and hands the knight a single flower. His tired body reaches out for it and he looks at her face. DIrty from soot and tired eyes from hiding from flaming arrows that would peirce the night she smiled at him as he took it. "Thank you" she said. With these two words he was peirced deeper then any wound, like a healers cut in t he body. She ran down the hill to her mother and father. "Your welcom." he said, in a voice that was like a gravel road, drawn out and full of texture. IN the end they had done the right thing. They will rebuild, they will replant the golden feilds of this land, and they will live on to tell the tale of these brave few and thier symbol of everlasting courage, the yellow dragon flower.

"Woot!! XD Got a story for yay!!"

date: February 19, 2008

Man remebers back to the days when he was something good to the world. He wasn't a bureden. A day when he could do things just as good as the young. Then a bunch of bandits come and harresse his village again. he goes tired of seeing them all the time. taking their food and money. He told himself today is it, he dawns on his armor, and unsheathes his sword. Takes a bow and shots down 2 othe bandits. the other 5 turn around and see him, deckout in full Fire Kight armor, they freeze and then attack, the old man, swings his giantic sword and cuts 3 down in one swing. the other two bandits turn and go for another attack. The old man gets the wind of youth back and turns and uses the Fire Knights strongest attack: the King Fire Dragon Swing, and both bandits are turned into ashes in a blink of the eye. the old man looks at them and takes his helm off, and the winds of youth have bestod on this old man another chance at life.

cool uh? i just thought of this when listening to your song. I love alot of your songs.

"beautiful sadness"

by: Ilden
date: February 3, 2008

You, good sir, are amazing. I've listened to all your songs, like all of them, and love most of them. This one inspires a couple of songs in my head, but unfortunately I've never quite learned how to get songs from my head to an instrument or what have you. How do you write your songs by the way? Do you actually play the piano, or any other instruments, yourself? Or do you use a program like Finale (Finale is the only program I can think of right now, I know most serious composers don't use it)? Sorry I know I ask lots of questions ^^;

Anyway, like many others, it makes me think of a story. I'm not good at telling stories, but it has to do with a lady elf in winter (yes, I'm a fantasy fan lol). The song could use some bass though. I don't see anything wrong with how high it is, it's just my mind is automatically adding in bass drum and timpani rolls in places.

10/10 and 5/5 =]

"psst ive got a story o_o"

date: January 17, 2008

Standing in the middle of a blood soaked, body ridden field of a peaceful little mountain town all this abomination of a man could do is just laugh at all this death and destruction. Then for the first time in centuries...it hit him. He took another look around at what he did. He could not feel pride or joy from reaping the innocent, but all he felt was guilt...a very foreign emotion. He dropped to his knee's weeping..."What have...i done..." he looked down and he saw the tall grass sway in the wind as he picked up his blackened demonic sword from the dark red ground and put it to his gut...

Rate hard :D

"nice and..."

date: December 24, 2007

this song could definately go great with some lyrics. i can hear it in my mind. some mechanholy (sorry, 2day just isnt my spelling day :( ) choir and some word lyrics.

Author's Response:

Lyrics eh? I've never thought lyrics for it, but it's definitely possible. What this song really needs though, is some better equalization. The treble is too high on it, though i've been told that some people liked it like that.

In any case, thank you kindly for the review, i'm glad you liked it!
