Redacted | The Adventure Zone Fan Song

Music by Jacob Ryan Smith
Lyrics by Gina Smith
From the moment we both finished listening to the Balance arc of The Adventure Zone, we knew we had to make something to shine a light on one of the most dynamic, well realized characters we've encountered. "Redacted" sees Lucretia, Madame Director of the Bureau of Balance, seconds before she makes the choice that would set the events of The Adventure Zone in motion.
Lyrics:
The words that I once loved
Now drip with unease
As I step back and at once
See the forest for the trees
It won’t matter our intentions
Our hopes or our plans
What matters is the end result
This book in my hands
No one will know how well we meant
How much we sacrificed
Cause this story’s how we broke the world
And couldn’t pay the price
So I’ll redact and I’ll revise
Recut the truth and redefine the lies
Step back and see our story
Through the future’s eyes
An agonizing revision
Made with exact precision
Only alone can I see this vision through
Spare the world
Then make it back to you
I’ve the power to change things
And I know I have to try
And I called it. I knew it.
Now I’ve got to pin down why
Put aside your pride, Lucretia
Time you stopped pretending
A story isn’t good
If we all hate the ending
I’ve learned that faith is lovely
But never goes as planned
If you want something done
Take it into your own hand
So I’ll redact and I’ll revise
Recut the truth and redefine the lies
Step back and see our story
Through the future’s eyes
An agonizing revision
Made with exact precision
Only alone can I see this vision through
Spare the world
And then make it back to you
They’ll be safe and they’ll be happy
When the past is redacted
Same people and same world
Just with some bits subtracted
Give them beaches and sun
And tastes of their favorite things
Give them the world
And a chance to sample the flavor it brings
Give them crafts and keeps and love
And a chance to reset
All the pain of the past
The stories and songs
And the choices we’d rather forget
So I’ll redact and I’ll revise
Recut the truth and redefine the lies
Step back and see this story
Through the future’s eyes
An agonizing revision
Made with exact precision
Only alone can I see this vision through
Spare the world
Spare the world
And then make it back to you

I see your “this is an act one finale” comments and raise you “this is an opening number” comment. Now the audience has to start like everyone who has had their memories wiped and piece it together

[@sanjanashanker7960]

...holy SHIT MIND BLOWN

[@taakotuesdays]

I see your opening number and raise you “opening number with a group reprise of the ‘put aside your pride lucretia’ bit when they get their memories back”

[@rowanastercode]

Okay but consider: a reprise as opening number; the full song doesn't come in until the characters know a little bit more, possibly act 1 finale, possibly mid act 2

[@Donnetellotheturtle.]

Also consider that we cant hear certain parts of the song due to there being speakers in the back just for the static effect

[@oliveshadbolt5103]

Also consider the wild changes in tone and the next song is a jaunty song called “Craigslist”

[@shelbystarling8537]

*realizes Lucretia cloak resembles the bureau’s logo*

[@rlvids9889]

This is absolutely incredible, it seems like something out of a musical - I'm picturing Lucretia alone on a shadowy stage in front of a huge glowing Voidfish in a tank like some Defying Gravity moment. Now I want a Balance musical lol. Seriously this is amazing

[@bruhyknow2814]

Came from animatic only realising it was not from a musical when Lucretia was said. Taz the musical would be every thing tho tbh

[@ghostyash9148]

I feel like it’d have to be set up the same way where you never really see the beginning when your close to the end so the feels can come through, because being attached to those characters is what makes some of the forgotten parts so painful to most fans. In my opinion. But it’d be amazing.

[@Mirazeth]

I imagine the last part in her office as she looks at the deillusioned portrait she made in the beach cycle and then like a knock at the door so the painting is returned to normal and then the boys walk in as the song fades out

[@Tabbyclaw]

I'm picturing screens in the backdrop projecting moving multicolored light to look like part of the voidfish glow, and as the song progresses and Lucretia feeds it the journals they gradually turn to static.

[@battyrae1398]

poor lucretia. i cant even imagine how lonely and guilty she must have felt for those twelve years, or how hard the choice to wipe her friends minds so they didnt suffer anymore was.

[@cjboyo]

I hate how many people see her as a villian. She is literally one of my all time favorite characters

[@revenantravings]

Tf you mean many people see her as a villain, literally all I see is people singing her praises even after all the shit she put the boys through and the fact she tried to sever an entire planet's bonds thinking that would solve shit. She's an interesting character, but she would have been the arc's villain if the group hadn't talked her down

[@valentineremmel701]

@@revenantravings I don't know if villain is the right word since her goal was overall for good. She absolutely did bad things, she absolutely did the boys wrong, but it's one of those "hurt a few, save a lot" moments. Or, try to save a lot anyways.

[@if7723]

@@revenantravings She would be a force they would have to stop, but that would still be a result of tunnel vision and desperation with no ill intent. Except maybe her escapade in Wonderland, she did leave a dude in a state arguably worse than death.

[@erinkinsey5662]

i need to write a taz balance musical specifically so that lucretia can sing this song in it

[@lee5706]

SPOILERS AHEAD. if this was part of taz musical, the set for this scene would include the voifish tank in the center of the stage with a platform behind it (stairs lead up to the platform to the right and to the left). as this song opens, lucretia is standing in front of the voidfish tank, which is illuminated with bright blue and purple lights. she's thumbing through the diary and closes it at 'see the forest for the trees'. she starts climbing the stairs to the audience's left at 'no one will know how well we meant' and steps onto the platform at the start of the first refrain. at the end of the first refrain, a rotating circle deal around the platform/stairs/tank brings in merle & taako playing cards, magnus carving a duck, and barry and taako talking. red spotlights shine on each of these three groups, and a blue one shines on lucretia. the walls of the stage are divided into three different screens- recaps play from the century (plant world, parley, strength bear dude, etc etc in order) at the beginning of the second verse and play until 'just with some bits subtracted' and shut off for the next part. merle, taako, and magnus move into a line and each get a blue spotlight as the parts of the song about them play/are sung. the rotating platform moves back to behind the stage. lucretia throws the journal in the tank around 4:00. to the audience's left (next to the tank, in front of the stairs) lined up are merle, barry, and taako. on the opposite side are magnus, davenport, and lup. all are facing the audience except for lup, who's turned away, hood up. each person bends over and turns from a red spotlight to a blue one at a different part of the third refrain- at 'redact', merle, at 'revise', barry, at 'recut', taako, at 'redefine', magnus, and 'step back', davenport- except davenport collapses instead of just bending over in pain. lup leaves the stage at 'future's eyes'. as merle, taako, and magnus each bend, a screen turns on to static. spotlights vanish on everyone & everyone leaves the stage /except/ lucretia right before the two 'spare the world's, and lucretia runs down the stairs on the audience's left to sing these. at 'and then make it back to you, she's gazing at the tank, and as the song fades, magnus rushes onstage with a blue spotlight, insert the scene where lucretia talks to him, their spotlights fade and the only light left on stage is coming from the voidfish tank. holy shit i. have a lot of ideas about this

[@sanjanashanker7960]

AAAA? JUST. SO MUCH YES

[@taakotuesdays]

This is fantastic and I love it but I NEED the “who?” scene in there because I HAVE to see that in a broadway musical

[@notjamin]

I love you for writing this out in such a detailed way YOUR M I N D

[@lee5706]

Elizabeth Powell FUCK YR RIGHT uhhhh so yknow how i said the screens turn to static when magnus taako and merle are forgetting? it could be a more gradual thing, and if the song paused right before the two ‘spare the world’s at 4:35 then there might be an opening for that scene. that’s when the screens FULLY turn to static and fade away, and the lights on everyone else go out and the rest goes as previously imagined. either that OR it’s in a flashback separate from the song but idk if that works as well? im gonna have to sit on this one

[@taakotuesdays]

@@lee5706 my thought was pausing the song like as she drops the book in the tank (like how some musicals have spaces for dialogue that aren't always in the studio recorded soundtrack) lights would come up on each of the set pieces and we could see the scenes, even if some buts were cut to make em shorter. but idrk I know nothing about staging musicals

[@KB42moomoo]

Ahhh. My heart. Oh, lucretia. I GUESS IM GONNA GO RELISTEN TO ALL OF TAZ BALANCE NOW!

[@ajjerio3927]

That is so relatable, oh my god.

[@Paego_]

I feel like this is something you guys need to know. My cat loves this song, she literally started rubbing her face on my phone when I was listening to it to brainstorm animatic scenes.

[@Dev-lw9ve]

it took me like 9 relistens to figure out that when she’s talking about what to leave them, the different parts correspond to thb. Beaches and sun- Merle. The world and the flavor it brings- taako. Crafts and keeps and love- Magnus. they really didn’t have to do that to us, they really really didn’t but here we are

[@ayeletdrago]

[@midoripumphrey2344]

[@sid5092]

This is so incredibly amazing! This highlights her character so well, and it's so emotional. Not mention this sounds straight off Broadway. I didn't know I needed a TAZ musical, but now I do. (Also anyone else getting a few Dear Evan Hansen vibes??)

[@lynxstar987]

M y h e a r t h u r t s But in a good way- this brought literal tears to my eyes, Lucretia is one of my favourite Adventure Zone characters, and this is one of the only fan songs that I've heard that exactly captures the turmoil she had probably had to go through when deciding to do what she did (not gonna say exactly what cause I wanna avoid spoilers ;P)

Found this on an animatic and seriously thought this was straight from a musical, and then realized this is FAN MADE and holy shit it's incredible!!! Like hot damn, this is such a blend of phenomenal music and lycrics specifically meant to hurt me. TAZ has a lot of great characters and stories, but Lucretia's is especially dear to me, there's so much heartbreak and love and this song does such an incredible job of revealing her thoughts and feelings, trying to do the best thing for her friends and the world, this self-sacrifice, the fierce determination to do whatever it takes to save everyone no matter the cost. "this story isn't good // if we all hate the ending" this part, and a lot of the song, reminds me of 'Requiem' and just kills me. It's all so bittersweet and beautifully done with so much heart.
