Description:
Walk the stone streets and corridors of a once-mighty city, a towering fortress where echoes can still be heard of both battle and celebration. Set in A minor and brisk 2/4 meter, a steady ostinato in low strings marches like the bold armies that once guarded its gates. A serene viola and cello melody drift like mist in a forgotten garden, where passing time leaves only faded shadows. As the wind rises, the music gathers strength, rising into a triumphant tribute that ascends to the stars, steadfast and eternal above the ruins below.
