Wow, 100k, i cant believe that this song hit 100k. Its surreal the impact this song had on my channel, a song that originally was made to practice chiptune, till it became more as time went on. I was at like, 80 subs when I released this song, and now I am at 1,000. Thank you guys, truly. I've read every single comment that was made, all of your amazing stories that you've all made for my song, it's incredible to me. I am so grateful.

In this battle, the knight already knows all is lost. His allies had insisted that the knight rest up before he entered the chamber containing the beast, and so he did, as his allies entered the chamber. He re-entered the chamber once he was at peak condition, to find the entrails of his equals scattered all across the ground he stood on. If his whole party was torn to shreds, what hope did he have? His thoughts are interrupted by an accursed thorn digging into the side of his flesh. Pain surges all throughout his veins, and its clear how the beast managed to tear apart his allies so quickly. Yet despite this, he stood his ground. He uprooted the thorn, and tossed it to the side, blade drawn. He fought with all his strength, yet inevitably, it wasn't enough. Instead of lashing out in animalistic desire, he instead succumbed to fate, closing his eyes. But the moment he did so, is when a voice in the back of his head hit him. *"Keep fighting."* Like under a spell, he got up despite the pain. Make no mistake, he is still on deaths door. But despite everything, he keeps his blade drawn, ready to strike. And so he continues to fight the monster standing before him. Every single hit he takes brings him to his knees, but always the moment before his life gives way, he stands back up. *"Keep fighting."* He stood in the face of death with courage and determination. And that will to stand his ground led him to his victory. ...But as the beast was slain, the adrenaline fades, as did that unfaltering determination. His legs finally gave way, as did his beating heart. (kinda just winged that, but i needed something to just dump some creativity into. cuz god knows i cant use that creativity for the things im actually trying to write!)

_The Knight rises, sword in their handₛ_ _The Beast falls, towering over them._ _The battle cannot be won. Victory is inevitable._ _There is no outcome, the Beast will fall._ _Fighting is nature to all_

Am I the only one feeling like the boss is the one ordering to keep fighting, like he is playing with the hero?

I feel like the boss is the one being told to keep fighting, as he’s the one missing his jaw and lower half. Fighting against a hero, hopelessly outmatched, the boss fights on. He is the final enemy, who Carries the weight of all those who have fallen before him.

"Is he even human anymore?" These words you hear evertime you return more broken and bloody than before, and yet something drags you from home like a dememted puppet on a wicked string, strung along for someone elses joy.

I LOVED THE MIDDLE PART WHERE THE BREATH CAME IN ! so fucking cool

**you fell tired and are heavy damaged but your determination is stronger than your own soul**

Anyone else getting Undyne facing the player vibes from the image?

if this doesn't play when i die i'm not dying

The monster is spain, the knight and his allies cheer as they begin to press onward. "No..." First, a horribly gutteral voice cried out. Anger dripping from the words as the maimed monster starts to stand on its wings. Demonic eyes stared down at the squad. "Im not done!" The voice roars as it charged at them like a madden berserker. Fighting for all it was worth. And the beast finds itself losing once more. However it had claimed the lives of a mage and a squire this time... "You... 'On't... 'et em" the beast growled as it rose once again, forcing itself in it's ruined state to fight on, once more. It's remaining bits of maw too ruined to speak properly. It fought with smoldering fury, but it's wounds would grow and grow, as would its hatred. The knight, High Paladin Grim. Would curse the monster for the deaths of most of his squad. He was the remaining warrior when the beasts' body was finally too ruined to fight. Panting from exhaustion, he pressed onward. And found the things his order sent him after. A village. Full of Monsters. ... The guardian construct watches, too ruined to fight. As the armored monstrosity charges down the hill. It prays for the first time. That it bought them enough time to escape the invaders. (Wanted to throw in a twist, hoped you enjoyed this comment)

a really deep and capturing melody, with such a beautiful animation too. i'm very impresed

I'm glad this is getting the recognition it deserves. This song not only is good, but it makes you imagine a whole story paired with this beautiful drawing. (I absolutely love this style) Keep making bangers.

conga rats, have a golden sticker ⭐

It looks like Undyne from Undertale vs the little ghost from Hollow Knight.

The heart is willing, but the body is weak. But the body is weak. But the body is weak. Yet the body is weak. Yet the body… The heart is willing and the body remains. It’s not over until it’s over.

Seems like life is trying to tell me something as this couldn't have come up in my recommended at a more perfect time. As of late been having a hell of a battle with many of my inner demons and the scene depicted very much sums it all up, worn beaten and battered yet still fighting on to the last breath. The animation is stunningly well done, just enough to really emphasis the already wicked as hell song where it all ties back together. Seriously well done with it all, really sells the drive the knight has in fighting on and defeating their own encounter with a demon!

Damn you are underrated, you gotta deserve more subs and views

Man I love songs like these cause even though some don't follow the same story, but put them together it's great

Great music! Keep it up!

It’s so good

Love it

300th subscriber. Loved the song.

That bass melody in the start is just heavenly to me for some reason Like that shit hiding some DEEP sadness in it or smth

i like the deep feeling of hopelessness, reminds me of the cyberpunk ost. to be fair in this situation the knight is NOT winning, if monsters like this existed in real life then humans wouldnt exist anymore

deserves my subscription, take my money

*While your soul is burning*

This feels more like a song for the “monster” it’s being torn apart, yet it keeps fighting. It keeps trying. Maybe it’s the hero in this story.

I'm in love with the song bro

You gon learn

No cost too great for Hallownest

esta cancion es perfecta, haz hecho un buen trabajo en esto

i love this music keep up the work and follow your dreams

I did not expect to see this. Love that you gave credit to the author. And you've got 474 subscribers now :D

now THIS is cool :D

the fact that the youtube gods are showing me a load of underrated gems like you are simply great, I'm having a blast trying to see what people are doing and your musics are simply the best, I normally hear your musics while playing and its such a blast, keep doing it because you are really good at making music.

this... Oh my god, this is amazing.

is that zote?

This is awesome

The hollow knights greatest nemesis: filled knight

Idk why but this gives me Frostbite vibes, from the one .exe fnf mod slow fade in to some horrific creature it some terrifying situation but the desperation of it means you have to win, no matter the cost. It's like a twist tragedy, both you and the creature have some sob story tragic background, but one of you has to be left to walk away, there's no going back now, and there's no guarantee that if you do manage to win, you'll even survive the aftermath... this is THE final fight, all out stakes, don't. lose.

As he stands, his will to fight the only thing remaining, he looks back and sees dead army's sent by every kingdom, even the enemy's, dead. Him the truly last remaining, still ready to fight till he dies. Not a king, not a mage, not a god, not anything important, no purpose, yet he still fights even if he's not a hero, or even called a monster in the end because to him. This is no longer a battle to defeat a common enemy, this is a fight to make sure no innocents get harmed by a creature of unfathomable power. Even if he can't leave but a scratch, he'll be satisfied knowing he didn't stop fighting, even as he dies.

underrated

beautiful

I knew it was boutta be an Undertale battle when the monster started slightly moving lol

This is one of the best 8-bit songs I’ve heard in a while more of the other ones are just covers or remixes that usually go over board with the music this feels natural and sounds amazing so keep up the good work

this is really really cool, deserves a lot more attention

Nice one lol, good luck in your future endavours as well(or anyone reading this)!

Hey, i just wanted to say that your music (especially this song) really touched me. Thank you for impact you and your work had on me.

This song reminds me of Undertale. As if the real villain were you 😊

wow, this is such a good song. I cant believe you have so few views, its crazy.

I won't falter I won't die I won't fail But neither will you.

Oh! Is there any lore with the monster? Is seems super interesting!

Holy shi. Subbed

Hollow Knight

Pov the epilepsy warning triggers your epilepsy

epik but with a k

this is super good!!

Ah, the classical battle between evil and good. A knight slaying a pure evil monster, it's a classic, like this song.

Your music is great I'm gonna add it to my playlist.

Wow, me entró una sensación de nostalgia, miedo y valor al mismo tiempo... Me encantó

Awesome track and awesome art!

I love it

a battel that cant be won falier was the only path

The snow is falling

Stepping into the absolute darkness of whatever dimension or realm this cavern lead to, a sense of hopelessness swept over them to them the world they knew was gone entirely for no matter the outcome of this battle of this outcome, eternal darkness awaited the knight but for the world they lost, that was not it for the monster could still enter it they still had one more impact left to make one more will they can make on their world to slay this beast to save those left behind

Low key wish this was on Spotify but doesn't make it less bad ass that it's here on KZfaq. Thanks for the awesome song big man.

The boss kind of looks like a bug from a certain game… can’t be sure though

This hollow knight drawings?

The boss…is dying and refuses to let him…the knight get away with slaying his people…a fallen angel protecting the last of their kind…the knight is the…monster

This is the music that plays when it’s the main characters last fight.

inspiration for a new character acquired

that would be a good RPG Maker Boss theme

This is exactly how I feel when fighting Skeletron Prime as a mage... with pre-hardmode gear...

You are at the final level of the dungeon, you cannot stop now...*They are depending on you after all.*

This fits the final boss for my DND campaign I'm running so well

"You've made fall onto my back, a true warrior never lets his back hit the ground. So congratulations beast, you've done what no man has done to me before... let that be your last accomplishment, so best savor it now. I will not let you see the next sunrise."

feels like a just shapes and beats song

Hollow Knight... What happened?

The only thing it lacks is base but overall it's awsome

You tighten your grip on your sword, your rough palms and scarred hands slick with blood. This is it. The culmination of your journey, your quest of purpose. All roads lead you here. You look at him as he towers over you, impossibly huge and imposing. You close your eyes. You remember everything before this moment. The gentle touch of your mother's hand on your cheek. Bones crushing under the weight of your steps. The gleeful screams of you and your siblings as you play in the yard. The terrified wails of the village as the beasts drag them away, streaks lining the dirt where desperate hands clawed for salvation. You breath in. You remember the friends that were taken from you, and those you learned to make on your journey for revenge. You breath out. You think of those who stood in your way. How terribly easy they were to wipe from existence. You feel the ceasing of a thousand pulses. You feel the world hold its breath. You open your eyes, acing down your final enemy. Win or lose, soon it will all be over. Soon you can rest. Soon it will all be worth it. You swing your sword. It slices effortlessly through the beasts hulking torso, severing him in half. Silence. For a few bewildered moments, the whole world is silent. You can't believe it. After everything, this is it? After everything you've won, all you've lost. Every sacrifice, the toll of a thousand lives taken by your hand weighing your soul like the chains of a prisoner. You want to laugh. You want to cry. You want to scream. You want to die. But most of all, you want to fight. You want what is owed to you. How DARE he? How dare he take this glorious ending away from you? How dare he? Fury burns within you. The purest of rages, the one that carried you all the way here from that village so many years ago. You wipe your bloodstained hands on your shirt and spit on the ground, looking the dying God in the eye as he let's out a shallow, labored breath. "Keep fighting"

This sounds like a just shapes and beats song, like a challenge mode one

Whats your music program maker? Or how you make your music It's so good bro

It's just me but I think the monster is trying to tell him to keep fighting to put him out of his suffering kind of like me

Race to the top BEAST...@$#

this was released 3 days after my birthday in 2023. funnily enough i'll be the 150th comment too, wew anyway, i love this song, with some... possible riffs i can hear? might be delusional, but i wish you good luck in your journey, and for the other people reading this, treat yourself! go get some water or something! i dunno, make your life just slightly better! Cause in the end, some people care for you, and you don't wanna leave em hanging, do you now?

Me fighting trying to hold in the shit at school-👺

Man, idk why but I randomly got the idea to make a game about a guy who’s dog gets taken by demons and he has to fight through literal hell to get his beloved pet back. Should I make it?

This is actually pretty good this became one of my favorite songs how did you learn to make this type of music?

Pwned!

Who else getting hollow Knight vibes

This Is So Underrated, This Hits Hard
