INFINITE ECLIPSE'S PREQUEL FINALE PLAYLIST: • 02. INFINITE ECLIPSE: ...
Heya everyone!
Today we continue the "Molten Spike" arc of Prequel's Finale! This track is the direct sequel to "Wings of Destruction" and "Heroes Shall Vanquish" and, for the first time in a while in the Infinite Eclipse series, it's a fully instrumental track!
This theme is for the big fight between Molten Spike and Ember & Thorax. I gotta say that, for this track, I was really inspired by the works Masayoshi Soken did for Final Fantasy XVI (especially the OST of Ifrit VS Phenix). The track is powerful and epic from the very beginning to the end!
Also, I assume you will be maybe able to recognize some leitmotivs in this track - "Wings of Destruction" and "Last Ramparts" - in both parts of the song! :)
After the arrival of Molten Spike in the Badlands, the situation for the UEP was really tense. Though, going beyond her limit and hearing the voice of a certain "King Virtus" from her scythe, Ember - Scion of Heroes - was able to use the powerful "Heroic magic" and give enough enery to Thorax so he'd be able to transform himself into a dragon as huge as Spike, who became the Wings of Destruction.
The fight between Dragon Thorax and Molten Spike was explosive, and it was really difficult for the Changeling to find a way to clear some room for Ember, knowing deep down that she's the only one that'll be able to take him down, with her mysterious yet powerful scythe.
This track is quite simple, and epic like I used to do it back in the day. Hope you'll like it!
BTW, Amyntha and I have something quite special planned to close the "Molten Spike" arc, and we can wait to show it to you when it'll be done! Though, I'll need to finish the new version of a certain track for that first ahahah
On that, enjoy!

Thank you very much!

[@Hollowki]

The molten tracks are always soo epic! This looks really cool and I can wait to see how this battle ends! It's scary know how powerful Molten!Spike is and how many sacrifices are need to be made to stop him, still, he isn't nearly as powerful as the High-Priestesses, let's not even talk about the Goddesses. It really shows how incredibly difficult, practically impossible to win, is the battle that the UEP has ahead. Also, I like the addition of Wings of Destruction and Last Ramparts lemotivs

Back to my usual writing for these kinds of music again... *_The sight of war is upon them. People are marching to the battlefield, leaving behind everyone._* *_So much fire, so much smoke. It chokes me and my heart to see how many people died. Yet, I see people push on._* *_They never gave up. They pushed back the enemy lines. Many fell, but they are close to winning. The sound of bagpipes just tells me that the winning side is us... the humans. We are pushing back the enemy that is despair._* *_Yet I bare witness. I wished to fight... but do I really know my battles? Do I know my own battles?_*

[@roukerasati9611]

Ahhh! Epic! I love it! I loved how bits of the previous two songs were in there. I noticed that on the second artwork, one of Spike's wrists are completely stripped of scales- down to the bone. This drives home that Spike's not there any more, but one of the undead.

[@JycRow]

Yup, unfortunately it was the case at the very moment he became a Molten, it was already over for him. Let's just pray Ember and Thorax will be able to make him finally rest in peace :(

[@AmynthaEszti]

I indeed put that in on purpose in that artwork! When I was designing that wound my thoughts went to the fact that he is Molten, he is dead and so is purely driven by the energy of Aqasha. So he doesn't need his muscles to have strength. So while Thorax managed to rip that out, which for a normal 'alive' creature would make that limb completely unusable it was almost useless to do it against Spike... I'm happy you noticed that! :D

[@mewsiul]

What do you mean by "cease to exist"? Please tell me that their soul can at least their souls can put themselves back together after death, if that was not your intended canon, CHANGE IT INMIDIATELY!!! Please, please, PLEASE!!!!!

[@Jazzysaurus09]

This is amazing I really like the art, the designs, and the story, while I do like happy endings there are some things I wished had a little more dark moments or longer lasting villains or just chapters that all together felt dark. This series does just that and while it is sad to see good characters become tainted by power of higher forces it also makes it more emotional and unpredictable of what happens next, which makes this series so good and fascinating. I especially like how the story is told through music, which to me is unique and interesting. I hope you are all doing well and I can't wait to see more, so far my favorite song is between Final Eclipse and Wings of Destruction, though this is defianitly up there as it reminds me of fighting Fatalis or Safi Jiiva in Moster Hunter World: Ice borne.

It takes this much, the joining of two of the most powerful beings, and the best you can do is BARELY defeat her servant? One of her greater, to be true, but still, merely a cinder of her greater fire? Do you really think that you and the rest of your fools can stand against the Essence of Destruction, let alone the Terror of Nightmares? I commend such bravery. After all, let it not be said, if their victory is so inevitable, then the Gods must not mind if those mortals beneath them try anyway. So go then, 'Heroes'! Gather all the forces you might, and stand against them. I will wait here, I will observe, as is the want of my kind. And who knows. Perhaps there will be a miracle after all?

[@sweetmelody6183]

All this really makes me wonder, is the original spike still there- or has what spike was made up, been swallowed by the destruction? Same with all the others, did the corruption / destruction remove who they once were, or are they somewhere- deep down? Originally got it when i thought of Celestia and Luna, how they most likely ceased to be given who they were the incarnations of.

[@JycRow]

Unfortunately not. As soon as one becomes Molten or Crystallized, they completely seize to exist. To explain a bit more clearly, they look like their past self because the magic that consituted their body has been used and mixed with Destruction or Nightmares magic. But that'd only be the body, which is the only thing left for most of them. Only exception would be if Aqasha/Nerath decides otherwise but that won't happen in Prequel

[@Tomlar147]

@@JycRow So reading this... Ember using the Scythe to cut off the head of Molten Spike is more of a relief. Like finally putting a body to rest?

[@kenjamarticus]

Holy crap, right off the bat, this song is freakin awesome! Such a strong start! Right when the bagpipes played I immediately thought of Virtus And the "Last Ramparts" leitmotif was not at all what I was expecting but I was so pleasantly surprised! I legit teared up a little when it played 😅😁 Amyntha did such a good job with both images and you did a fan-freakin-tastic job with this song! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks! Indeed, the bagpipes ensemble are mainly there for Virtus representation, though a shame not a lot of people noticed the "Wings of Destruction" leitmotif during the whole first part of the song :p

@@JycRow I didn’t catch it until you pointed it out in someone else’s comment 😅😅 I think for me, it was changed JUST enough to where I didn’t fully catch it (heck, it took me an embarrassing amount of time to notice Nerath’s song in the ‘Night Queen’ melody 🫠) but I always love being surprised when I do notice it 😁

Thank you very much! Unfortunately, I did not inspired myself (had to check it, I forgot "Gauntlet of Fire" was the name of an MLP episode ahah), but I shall listen to that as soon as I can :D

Great song but please tell me spike didn't die

[@JycRow]

Welp, unfortunately, going Molten is a one way ticket. He's gone since the moment Ayzat put her hooves on him and made him the Wings of Destruction

[@dragonmasterplaysandacts4282]

@@JycRow no it can't be. Twlight better do something to end this. I think all she can do is go back in time to stop this before it started

​@@dragonmasterplaysandacts4282 You poor bacteria...It's all too late! That fake Alicorn can't do anything now!

What’s the lore here?

[@JycRow]

A lot - check the description, there are a lot of links regarding the lore of Infinite Eclipse. In addition to that, all the videos having an orange thumbnail is part of the story, several playlists have been made

Please tell me that their soul can at least their souls can put themselves back together after death, if that was not your intended canon, CHANGE IT INMIDIATELY!!! Please, please, PLEASE!!!!! I don't want my Spiky Wakey (or the others I guess) to be denied even an afterlife. Please!!

[@ReesesBees]

They have no soul to begin with. Aqasha and Nerath's power revives them as undead soldiers; they have no soul, mind or free will. Essentially becoming their puppets. And no, Jyc is not changing his own lore just because you hate that Molten Spike is killed.

Amazing!!🫶 just like the old times 💪🫶

[@JycRow]

Yeee, thanks!

I know you said that every canonical member of the show will be dead by the time of the IE story proper due to copyright reasons but I still have to wonder how they will die. Will the UEP manage to set up an effective resistance despite the difficulty to do so or will the deaths be mostly for naught other than light resistance.

[@JycRow]

Well, regarding some of the main characters, it'll be shown here how they will die, continuing the story of IE Prequel. Though, something will indeed happen that'll make the UEP be able to survive for 300 years. I'll not say if it's true or not (to not reveal anything), but with a gap of 300 years, any canon show survivor would still be dead, either taken down in battle or simply of old age.
