Mulan OST - 13. Mulan's decision (Synthesizer version score)

[@Jay-qh6uv]

The synth part makes it probably the most dramatic scene in the whole film, and I cannot believe they cut it out of the soundtrack. Wtf. It's so emotional, contemplative and determined.

[@corneliali7747]

This scene in the movie is so powerful, the determination she had to not only save her father but also her people knowing very well she may not come back alive. She didn't go to become a hero, she's went because she knew it's the right thing to do.

I always thought it was because I was a boy and this movie was only for girls or something. In a way I'm glad I never saw it as a kid.

I’m fine now and recovered well actually very well, I can walk, run, do normal things again. For months I had to re teach myself the simple easy things. I had physio sessions, 4 times a week and water physio. My confidence went down hill and I had gained a lot of weight. My BP went super low and my weight before it happened was 8 stone 6 to 5 stone 3 in 2 days. Dropped massively. I had no friends no boyfriend and all I had was my family. Years later from it happening I was told because of it happening there was a less than 5% of me being able to conceive. I was devastated as I’m such a maternal woman. Now ?
