lyrics

By casting a spell, you discover that the maze of the cave is magical and not as intricate as it seemed to you. You spot an illusory wall that can be walked through like a dense black smoke screen. After walking through it, you find yourself in a cave with smoother walls. A magical torch lights up the room dimly: on all sides, there are shelves of books bound in human skin and scrolls... It’s Uvul’s study! A feeling of terrible evil assails you: a fleeting glance at Baalthasar is enough to realize that his half-orc sixth sense prompts him to leave this place immediately. It is now late at night when you reach the beach and quickly you begin to climb the rocks to return to the village.

flies the coop

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

Dinosaurs and Dungeon Synth? PERFECT. This is the album that really got me into dungeon synth again and made me continue my dinosaur obsession. winstonrandom

My favorite out of the three I believe.The sound is more aggressive and fits the cover art of what looks like a perilous journey for the protagonist. Fits well at being the second in the trilogy of albums. Every song is good and the cassette tape and package is of good quality. A Great buy that deserves a vinyl edition. Joshua Laleina
