Love the percussion in Runaway from the Kingdom. Definitely conveys a sense of urgency.
Most of a new beginning sounds very optimistic. I quite like the addition of church bells. I think it grounds the song in what seems to be a town. A fantastic little detail. I also like the small interludes into something very stern and serious.
Awesome work! I think both tracks were really good at storytelling and placing you in the middle of a scene.
