Perhaps the party has recently suffered an incredible loss, or they’ve come upon a scene of great despair during their adventuring. This song embraces a sense of sadness, with wailing string instruments coming together to paint a canvas of an incomprehensible emotional pain. After a minute, the song adopts a vaguely East Asian tone that, while not uplifting, is cheerier than the beat before—something more reminiscent of moving forward rather than wallowing in the present. The party is now faced with dealing with the fallout of what they’ve just witnessed.
