Jyc Row – Thorax’ Quietus (Molten Spike arc epilogue) | Orchestral

Finishing off his Molten Spike arc, Jyc Row delivers us a heart-wrenching song about the aftermath of the epic fight between Molten Spike and Ember and Thorax. “Thorax’ Quietus” follows the King of the Changelings with a re-orchestration of his original UEP theme, mourning the loss of those fallen during the confrontation. While strings provide the musical background, the melody mostly gets carried by a mixture of bagpipes and a mixed choir, furnishing the track with a sense of tragedy and heroic sacrifice compared to the hopeful sounding theme it was derived from. All this is intensified by the animatic made specifically for this video by Amyntha Eszti, illustrating the grief and loss Thorax is experiencing, making the song and video an emotional experience that will burn itself into your memory!
