Description
Orchestral, the game would be high graphics and adventurous, similar to recent Legend Of Zelda games. This singular track would most likely play during an epic cutscene, closer to the finale of the game. The build up would show the dragon and its rider flying higher and higher into the sky, then when the main theme breaks out, the player would emerge victoriously above the sea of clouds. Over the remainder of the track, the player would ride the dragon around, battling the final enemies of the game, using all the knowledge and power they have collected over their run. I composed the track with MuseScore 4, using various plugins (like Spitfire Audio). I first thought of a fitting heroic melody for the strings and brass to blast out, then arranged the percussion, woodwinds, and large choir as supporting roles.
Message from the artist
This is, in my opinion, the best piece of music I have ever composed, and the fact I managed to do it so quickly is astonishing. Even if I don't win, I'll still be very happy with what I completed.
Theme
How does it fit the theme?
A heroic track that highlights the hypothetical main theme of the White Dragon.

Very powerful sounding! Cool track! Love the pretty section at the end.
the amount of layers/instruments you were able to include in this for this short of a period is fucking CRAZY!! astonished at how complex this piece is. it's a good piece in general-- but especially for a 48 hour time limit
I really liked the Sitar near the beginning and I wish it were used more often throughout the song. If it was and I just didn't hear it then I am sorry.
