Velorae [The Soundry: Babble&Bangers Pop-up Challange]
Emotional orchestral ballad inspired by JRPG soundtracks, Start with solo piano, soft and intimate, fragile and nostalgic, Gradually add warm strings (violin, cello) and light woodwinds for color, Build into a heartfelt, melodic orchestral section, then return gently to piano, Mood: bittersweet, nostalgic, fragile beauty with hope and sadness, like a farewell theme in a Final Fantasy OST, No vocals, purely instrumental

Lyrics
Created for The Soundry: Babble&Bangers Pop-up Challenge, this piece is sung in a made-up language — the Language of the Muse.
It serves as the opening theme of my upcoming Arc IV, a journey into mystery, beauty, magic, and deep melancholy.
