Aria's theme opening is beautiful and haunting with that voice :)
Empathy grove : I start to sense your work here. This track invites you to listen calmly, with empathy.
Empathy Crystal felt like the previous part was an effort and is now rewarded.
Sanctuary of reason : i really like the ambiance in the introduction of this one. It feels like you have to make decisions based on the past, related to empathy and other people maybe, in my mind at least. Really beautifull progression in the middle!
Nonsensical sentinel : Wow !! So good orchestration here :D epic and moving, this one is amazing and conveys a confrontation really well.
Reason Crystal : aria's theme on cello, nice narrative touch after the previous fight.
Tranquility Peak : Calm as I expected. That melody is tinted whith bitterness or melancholia... But the chords at the end resolve to something more open and free, tranquility... nice progression through the song on a narrative side again :)
Aria then embodies that tranquility evoked just before with the piano. Your building process is neeeaat :D
Sanctuary of virtue : Solemn vibe here. Then it tends towards someting dramatic (slightly, I don't have max vocabulary ^^). Strenght from the previous experiences is felt here.
Umbra the guardian of virtue : this feels like the peak of the story ! Great mix of the previous instruments used i think.
Virtue Crystal : End game ?
I feel like it could have go on and on haha, I was ready for more!
Amazing narrative building musically! The quality is there, but your main strenght in my opinion is that ability to build a world and characters out of your compositions.
Excellent job !
