I can totally see myself jamming out to this really soon, like some of your songs the tune needs to get set in my mind, but in the end it's worth it. And since I read the last part of the author comments, I might figure out a way to use the song in a non-Geometry Dash way. Keep up the great work. :D

Miyolophone responds:
Thank you Rose! Sure, just let me know if you end up making anything with it :D
I love the strings in this one (especially the guitar oml).
Also, I have this weird thing with key changes into minor and I love that most of your songs have that! Keep up the astounding work, my dude!
Miyolophone responds:
Thank you Monado-Boy, happy to not disappoint!
I'm so glad you managed to make such great progress over the years! This is definitely one of your cleanest tracks. I also enjoyed the context you included to add to the atmosphere of the song (and also why you changed your discord handle lmao).
Miyolophone responds:
The subtle discord hype was real lol, thank you Kaito!
This is one of those songs that isn't just song, they're a part of a story.. The song is just so clear and fitting to the story, i can actually imagine the story with the help of the song which is also a thing i love about your songs (including amoris {which is also amazing!}). I'm already not sure how your songs could get better, then again, it has always been like that since i listened to amoris and somehow you always proof me wrong.. just keep doing whatever sorcery you're doing to make good song...
Miyolophone responds:
Thank you Taikeb0, I'll do my best to keep improving!
I liked the pensive mood at the beginning, and the percussion was a nice touch. Good use of reverb and progression. The texture is rich and has a great sense of drive about it, even without much in the way of drums or bass. The sound design is really strong. I think the melodies at 1:12 are a little too loud, and it’s also easy to tell that the string sample there is fake because of it’s slow attack. Overall, the production quality here is really strong, and I liked the tempo automations at 1:50. The bell sound at 2:06 was a little harsh-sounding - you may want to take some treble off of it in an equalizer. Still, I appreciated the tranquility, which offered some great structural relief from the earlier energetic section. The texture changes drastically at 2:32 and again at 2:55 - the piece doesn’t have a ton of structural cohesion, so I’d be careful about trying to cram too many melodic ideas into one piece. That said, the piece comes together nicely with the return of the powerful string solos. Overall, the composition here is absolutely fantastic. The slight balance issues during the string sections were the only things that actively bothered me. Keep up the great work, Miyolophone! ;)
9.75/10

(ahhhhh the attack was all the way down stupid viola sample)
Thanks TL for the feedback and obscenely high score! Like I said to johnfn, I'll make sure to treat my melodies and textures with respect and dignity instead of just tossing them around next time ;)
