Waw... what a journey you took me in. I'm absolutely baffled by the emotions you managed to convey, and I loved reading the story while listening to the music!
Even though all the orchestration is absolutely stunning, I think my favorite is "Adrift in the storm", the chord progression on the piano is amazing, it reminded me a lot of the soundtrack of Hollow Knight (mainly "Soul Sanctum"), with this sorrowful yet grand and hopeful quality to it.
Amazing job yet again!
