Trapped

"Trapped" Inside My World

Track 1 : Ascension

Morwen, Wielder of Creation Shadow Magic, is driven by an insatiable thirst for power and an intense curiosity about the extent of his powers. Seeking to fully explore his mastery over his magic, he decides to try and achieve a new goal, becoming THE GOD of his own world.

To achieve this, Morwen creates his own world—a realm where he reigns as the supreme being, exerting absolute control over every facet of its existence. He begins trapping people inside it, ranging from simple adventurers to mischievous thieves and powerful warriors and mages. Once preparations are complete and all participants are gathered, Morwen, now known as Mordoth, God Of The New World, appears. He explains that everyone present is now a contestant in his new game, with the only way to return to the "real" world being to defeat him, the almighty, overpowered god. Until then, they must prepare themselves, seeking powerful weapons and gathering resources to challenge him whenever they are ready.

About the music: For this song, I drew inspiration from Light's theme in Death Note. I divided the track into three parts. The first part serves as an introduction, while the second part is Morwen's theme before he transforms into Mordoth in the third part.

Track 2 : Forgotten

It's been a long time since the characters have been in Mordoth's world. The once-vibrant memories of their past lives have begun to fade, replaced by the constant struggle for survival in this new, harsh reality. The main characters arrive in a town where an eerie silence prevails. The streets are deserted, and the few townsfolk they encounter move like shadows, their eyes vacant and lifeless. It feels as if they are unconscious, trapped in a waking dream. These people have forgotten their old lives, their purpose stripped away by the oppressive force of Mordoth's magic. They have lost who they were, becoming hollow shells of their former selves. The main characters are haunted by the realization that this could be their fate as well, should they fail in their quest.

About the music: This is a loop, designed to be what the player hears when they are in the town of the forgotten. I imagined this song as a background track for the game, setting the mood in this eerie town. You can hear the song fade into the background, representing the memories of the people in the town fading slowly.

Track 3 : Hope

The main characters have endured countless trials and tribulations in Mordoth's world. They have faced formidable foes, forged new alliances, and discovered hidden strengths within themselves. Along their journey, they have met many people, each contributing to their growth and bolstering their resolve. Now, after much hardship and preparation, they stand united and stronger than ever. The time has come to face Mordoth, God Of The New World. Their hearts are filled with hope and determination as they prepare for the ultimate battle. Victory is their only path to reclaim their forgotten pasts and restore the lives that Mordoth's twisted game has stolen from them.

About the music: I was really inspired by the main theme of Tears of the Kingdom and also Attack on Titan, both story-wise and musically. The feeling of freedom and the desire to escape the confines of the "trap" they live in heavily influenced this piece.
