Right from the opening grace notes I was immediately reminded of some Studio Ghibli soundtracks, and I mean that in the best way possible. I think you succeeded in creating an aural landscape that gave the impression of ancient traditions and mysteries being unearthed. I could picture in my mind quaint villages in a lush pastoral setting dotted with giant arcane ruins. The heroes, plucked from their simple lives, hesitant, hapless, yet able to rise to the occasion when tradition and crisis collide. The climactic rise of the brass instruments near the end of the last track was so nice. Absolute pro-level work! 💯
