Heya everyone!
Here's the second of the two tracks I've submitted to the latest P@D album and DAMN, what an experience it was to work on this one!
For the very first time, I had the chance to work with a real choir of 35 people and it was so amazing! Big thanks to Four For Music LTD and everyone involved in this project!
A making-of video of some sort will be released in the future, with a "choir only" version of this song.
Also, big thanks to Samantha for the amazing vocals and to Maria for the stunning violin solo! :D
Regarding the track itself, I wanted to make some solemn and "religious" track about Nerath, as this is more the way of Naegissa and the Crystallized.
You have also certainly noticed in this song's artwork some well known characters who unfortunately fell to the battle and were revived by the Goddess of Nightmares!
In any case, now that I'm back from my musical break (and that I'm finally in my new house where I have a special room just to compose), expect some new music: Primordial Pantheon EP and more!
I'm also working on some Original Soundtrack on a very, very promising videogame (unrelated to MLP) and I'm very hype about that project as well!

Lyrics by Samantha Minor:
Nerath
Nerath
Nerath
Hear us when we call to you
Goddess of the deepest blue
Crystal wings
Glimmering
Even the moon is worshiping
Friend or foe
We’ll never know
Her horrifying beauty bestowed
Nerath
Nerath
Nerath
Terror, madness
Shrouded in mystery
Nightmares keep me awake
Her tail and mane of deepest black
Her might, her power calls us back
We cry for mercy
We cry for mercy
From Nerath
Nerath
*Violin solo*
Nightmares
Every soul shall bow down
To the Goddess Nerath
Only she will conquer
And bless us all
Nightmares
Every soul shall bow down
To the Goddess Nerath
Only she will bless us all!
Nightmares
Every soul shall bow down
To the Goddess Nerath
Only she will conquer
And bless us all
Nightmares
Every soul shall bow down
To the Goddess Nerath
Only she will bless us all!

While aqasha’s forces March forward with rhythm and fiery anger, the cold of the night seeps into your bones long before the glimmers of crystal become visible. Their madness one of torment, driven by nightmares and fear, eyes clouded by mist. They will not wake from their slumber, and their forms will not shed their crystalline shimmer. Not as long as the wintry darkness stands her ground.
@LuckyKitty25 2 жыл бұрын
I find it interesting how despite being called “Praise Nerath”, most of the lyrics seem to be of the perspective of someone who has been victimized by Nerath. This isn’t “yay Nerath our hero”, this is “Nerath is haunting my nightmares and I’m begging for mercy” and “we don’t know if Nerath is even a friend or foe”. It adds some interesting depth to the goddesses’ followings, that despite their unconditional worship, on some level they seem to realize their goddess doesn’t give a crap about them. It gives some real Stockholm syndrome vibes.
@midnightnightwish8266 2 жыл бұрын
I honestly compared their worship with one of a cult, sometimes you can find religions where there's a merciful god, and others where they worship an entity full of pain and destruction and yet, they don't care, because theire mind has been destroyed beyond repair in the sense, that they believe their life is meaninglessness, and only useful for the gods they worship, the same happens with nerath and aqasha, the diference is how they control their minds, while aqasha has an aproche more physical and her presence creates an atmósphere of fright and admiration in some sense,nerath's the compmete oposite she sets her control on the mind, litterally using nightmares to have the ponies under her feet like puppets, she doesnt need them alert, she needs them submissive and obedient, not caring for their own life

Where the Wings of Destruction is a foreboding, terrifying march of death, holding onto the themes of the militarristic Aqasha and Ayzat, Praise Nerath maintains its soft and soothing yet unnerving motifs and melodies. Singing sweetly in, drawing your attention in until you realize just what is happening... but by then it is too late. Once again, a fantastic composition, especially as it gives more of a sense of the distinction between the two followings and the Goddesses. Something I noticed with the two artworks is that in the Wings of Destruction, the focus is entirely on Spike (for obvious reasons) yet you do not see any trace of Aqasha beyond the flames and Molten. It is subtle but it tells you that Aqasha doesn't need to be there for you to feel her presence. But here, you see Naegissa playing with her puppet strings, seemingly the focus of the piece, but then your eye is drawn to Nerath, who is sitting oh so quietly as she overlooks her priestess and the work around her. It says a lot about the characters, and I really like that, even if it might just be a coincidence and artistic direction.

The most frightening enemy is not the one you see coming at you head on, but the one that has already struck without notice. Such is what drives the fear of darkness, for you cannot see your enemy but neither your allies. In darkness we stand alone against the horrors of our minds as shadows of doubt pervade our every thought. The only way to overcome this fear... is to embrace the darkness and join it's unseen ranks.

I just realized something interesting. Aquasha does appear to speak, even a little bit, through Azyat, commanding her army of molten in one way or another. She speak to the ponies she is destroying. Nerath, unless I missed something, never actually talks- so far anyway. Instead it's always someone singing to her. This is just a theory, it could be incorrect.

@@alphamaccao5224 Yup! I was aware of that- what I meant was while Azyat relays Aquasha's direct words into the song itself, Naegissa doesn't quote Nerath directly in any of her songs. Naegissa uses words like "she". Occasionally Azyat says "I" when speaking for Aquasha.

Well . . . this was bone chilling. In a good way. I really liked it. The choir and cultish style definitely fits Nerath and her forces. Visually, I find the crystalized quite horrifying here both in appearance with the glowing eyes and crystals growing along out of their bodies and their expression in the respect that either their personalities are shining though the corruption (doubtful given the fact they're basically zombies) or (more likely) their faces are frozen in their last expression before they . . . died. I can imagine Rainbows expression of determination as she charges into a fight, not realizing it will be her undoing, Trixie's concentrated expression as if she's focusing on a spell and doesn't have time to process the incoming enemy, and Rarity's stunned expression as if she saw the enemy, but was too late to deflect or get away. When you think about it like this it's actually quite horrifying. Then there's Nerath and Naegissa just standing (or laying in Nerath's case) puppeting them the way they see fit, without careing about the ponies they were before, only their own goals.

I kinda want the UEP to get a goddess of their own (maybe made from Twilight and Cadence like Celestia/Daybreaker and Luna/Nightmare-Moon 's bodies became Aquasha and Nerath), like one that embodies life, natural death, creation and emotion. I guess her name would be Iisaht. Her mane and tail would be mist occasionally showing a rainbow, her whole body would be made of the same showing a skeleton made of jewels, representing the fleeting beauty of life, her wings would be made of spider web thin lacework, her horn a clear and perfect prism, she might be nicer, letting the revived (name pending: the Awoken) keep their minds or purifying the Molten and Crystallized, returning them to death, leaving their bodies unmarred with peaceful smiles to be reclaimed by the earth. Just something that popped in my head after listening.

This was honestly amazing. I may be years too late, but Iove of how with Nerath her worshipers are kind of doubting that Nerath is a wonderful ruler and of how its like it wasn't there choice to bow down to Nerath. In my own observation, I think that Nerath is forcing them to bow down to her since the other pegasus and unicorns have crystal literally embedded into there skin and there eyes are completely white and mystified. And then they are mentioning nightmares that keep them awake, which sounds like Nerath is much more evil and mysterious since they also don't know if shes a friend or a stranger basically. Its like they want to escape but when they do Neraths mind control power or sm pulls them back. Again, I super love this!

I had noticed this song came out almost a week early on spotify. I was confused, but still listened to it. For me, it has a gothic kind of vibe to it. I love the choir in the background and then at the end of the song, as well as the ethereal voice of Samamtha, the violin solo and now, the stunning visuals. You put so much effort into this song and it really paid off! 😊 Praise Nerath!! May she envelope this world into an eternal crystal darkness!!

Yup! Actually, this song as been featured in the latest Ponies at Dawn album (linked in the description) so it already has been released the same day "The Wings of Destruction" came out on my channel. I was just waiting a week to release the standalone video here. That's why it's already available on Spotify and other streaming platform! :) And thank you! Glad you enjoyed the song! =)

I like how Nerath is *chilling* in the background. Ha, get it? Chilling? Hah... Edit: The Crystalized are the ones chanting in the song, right? Does that mean that some Crystalized, other than Naegissa, are still sapient/conscience? When they're resurrected, do they still have their minds? Compromised by Nerath yes, but still functioning? Or are they just shambling zombies? Also once again, the art and music are great! Everyone did a fantastic job!
@JycRow 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you very much! To answer your question, yes and no - we can consider that those are the Crystallized voices, but they merely are an illusion created by Nerath/Naegissa Most of the Crystallized - same with the Molten - are just shambling zombies, as you said. And, to be more precise, they're all like that in Infinite Eclipse: Prequel's Finale. You'll see more powerful and sapient Crystallized/Molten in IE:Main Story, though: they are called the Archbishops and, while they're not as powerful as the High-Priestesses, they're quite the enemies and have all their own stories!

ALLIED COMMAND THREAT ASSESSMENT. DISSEMINATION OFFICER LEVEL 4 AND ABOVE Entity: Subordinate Threat Entity 02-2 "Rainbow Dash" Threat Level: High Rainbow Dash, the bearer of the Element of Loyalty and a member of the "Wonderbolts" Pegasus demonstration and combat squadron, was famous throughout all of Equestria and steadfastly dedicated to her friends. Princess Celestia's transformation into Daybreaker was viewed as a betrayal of her trust, something she did not take kindly. She joined the Lunar Rebellion, but when Nightmare Moon reappeared, she defected, joining the nascent UEP. Tragically, she fell in battle against the Royal Sisters during Case ECLIPSE, only to be returned as a Crystallized. Rainbow Dash was the first Pegasus to perform the Sonic Rainboom, and was able to do so repeatedly. Her speed was-and still is-without parallel, even among the Wonderbolts. As a subordinate to Threat Entity 02, she is an extraordinarily lethal combatant. Engage at your discretion. Entity is capable of generating extreme weather events (high winds, tornadoes, snowstorms, dust devils), much like she was in life. Ground fire with aerial support is advised; restrict her maneuvering options, then attempt neutralization. Unfortunately, she has proven capable to besting large dragons in aerial combat even when unsupported by other airborne Crystallized, and will use her unrivaled speed to disengage from an unfavorable situation. All attempts to neutralize her have ended in failure. Brevet-Colonel Starlight Glimmer is of the opinion that she can still be saved.

ALLIED COMMAND THREAT ASSESSMENT. DISSEMINATION OFFICER LEVEL 4 AND ABOVE Designation: Subordinate Threat Entity 02-3 "Trixe Lullamoon" Threat Level: High Trixie Lullamoon was originally a travelling showmare who rose to notoriety after two incidents in Ponyville-one involving an Ursa Major, and the second involving the use of [REDACTED], a forbidden magical artifact. After this, she faded into obscurity again before befriending Starlight Glimmer. In terms of personality, she was often boastful and arrogant, though Starlight is insistent that she possessed a softer side. Lullamoon was a talented show-pony and good at drawing attention to herself, and was dedicated to Glimmer, forming the core of the conspiracy to remove Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon. After the emergence of Threat Entities 01 and 02, Lullamoon was attacked by Crystallized and killed in action. She has been revived as one of them, sometimes seen accompanying Subordinate Threat Entity 02-1 "Naegissa." She is very skilled in illusion magic, as well as summoning up mists and snowstorms to obstruct lines of sight. Any forces engaging her must first verify that what they are seeing is real before attacking. Several blue-on-blue incidents have occurred when such precautions were not taken.

ALLIED COMMAND THREAT ASSESSMENT. DISSEMINATION: OFFICER LEVEL 4 AND ABOVE Designation: Subordinate Threat Entity 02-4 "Rarity" Threat Level: High Rarity was a pure white unicorn, and the bearer of the Element of Generosity. A fashionista based in Ponyville and later Canterlot, she secretly supported the Lunar Rebellion, though much of her information was also, unbeknownst to her, fed to the Lunar Cult that worshiped Nerath and used to facilitate their takeover of the rebels, as well as their infiltration of Solar-held territories and institutions. She fought alongside the newly-created United Equestrian Pact at the organization's baptism of fire, Case ECLIPSE. Survived Emergence. Encountered Threat Entity 02 during Case Melchior; suffered broken horn before being declared KIA. Underwent Type-2 Physical/Metaphysical Transfiguration/Reanimation Event that turned her into a Crystallized. STE 02-4's tail has lengthened, and her main has lost some of its curls, lying alongside her neck. The entity can conjure shards of ice and gemstones, using them as projectiles. Often seen surrounded by a blizzard of glittering shards, each one able to slice a pony's throat. Also skilled with illusion magic, and able to drive others insane. Engage from a distance with heavy support. Though Brev-Col. Glimmer thinks recovery is possible, that is to be considered secondary to the preservation of UEP lives. Lethal neutralization authorized if no options available.
