The Hidden Curse - Forest of Doom - Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin

This is my second favorite tune. I'm not sure why, but I think it's because of the pace it follows, and because of the use of woodwinds.

According to the Castlevania Wiki, this is Charlotte's theme :)

[@whiteraven1992]

^If Charlotte is supposedly a "potential final weapon against Dracula" like it says in the original instruction manual for Portrait of Ruin; then I would imagine if they developed her backstory further, there would be some tragedy involved. There's also the "Demon Castle War of 1999" to consider (judging by her age in PoR's time; she'd have been 71 by 1999).

[@TheManaPrism]

@@whiteraven1992 That's the real shame of this game : Charlotte is really secondary to the gameplay and the plot. Plus, as of now, it's the first and only time the Aulin name is mentioned

[@thunderfuse9269]

It should be.

[@brandoncain5864]

@@TheManaPrism It took awhile for the Belnades Family and the Lecardes to have heirs as well, so...give it time, I guess. Though we never saw anything from the Dynasty/DaNasty family. Or the Renards...technically.

Charlotte walking into the frog monster's courtyard.

This is probably my third or fourth favorite tune in the game. I don't even know why. I just like how magical the chimes are. Makes me think of the locale, too... the abandoned school in the middle of the forest.

[@jimbosch]

what is your first and second favourite tune in the game?

[@SomaCoreaix]

This is probably my second favorite in the game after Gears Go Awry. Third would probably have to be either Jail of Jewels or Confrontation of Destiny

[@karlizen4990]

In search of secret spell is the best

[@hunterdeblanc5713]

Maybe that school wasn’t so EVIL until someone hid the “ Dark Gate “ inside the basment.

[@angelh4399]

I have never thought about it, May be a good theory

the Best arrange of all the many that there are in my opinion

[@gabriel-von-schneider]

I especially like the key change at 1:55. Feels like a big sigh.

0:57 You're welcome.

[@AmbassadorBreadloaf]

0:56 to 1:23 is sooooooo beautiful but i love the part after that too

Esta música é linda, é triste, é nostálgica e ao mesmo tempo passa uma paz....

Realmente é linda. Os Castlevanias de DS São os meus favoritos, junto com suas OSTs.

[@gayluigipower]

With in search of the secret spell it's the best ?

[@MysteryOpponent]

This is my favorite from PoR!

[@PrincessGrouchy]

Uh... did you transpose the chimes, like, a third up? They're a tad dissonant, at least for me. I like whatever synth you're using

[@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus]

It's the harmonics in the chime sample. Sometimes they work out well, but some people can pick up on it. They're in the correct pitch though.

[@PrincessGrouchy]

@@JorgeFuentes-TGMagus Hm... I never thought that would be a factor. Thanks for telling me!

[@michaelnelson8618]

​@@PrincessGrouchyI've noticed this on some audio settings working with a friend in his studio. I think some tracks are set with zany settings that the synth editors don't realize because their test isn't long enough to give the keyboard time to cycle through the full audio effect. Could be totally unrelated.

[@rockslamx2]

a the best music game this game

[@NathanLepoyo]

This is much better than the harmony of despair remix

[@karlizen4990]

Ha! Veggielite!

[@drunyon214]

In Search of the Secret Spell and Jail of Jewels have to be better, I think. I'm honestly not a huge fan of this song. Gears Go Awry is better, too (I know that's your favorite). PoR did have a pretty great soundtrack, for sure, even though I think the gameplay is several steps below the other two DS titles.
