There were originally only two soundtracks for the fic, it has kind of grown to 8 volumes. Because to plan what to write I play out scenarios in my mind (like a movie) I have music which goes with it, and i constructed the perfect album for the final section, Eternity. It is quite short, but the music is all gorgeous, ethereal and coming from Final Fantasy, Escaflowne and Evangelion. Again there are some notes besides the titles, but these will be incomplete until the fic is fully up (and in my current line of work i'm doing 1/2 chapters a day ^-^).
1. ( 'Wanderer of Time' - Final Fantasy Pray)
The theme of Laverna and her final battle music. Slow and graceful, quite unlike a normal battle theme.
2. ('Compression of Time' - Final Fantasy VIII)
An incredibly, atmospheric and experimental piece of music. It was used in FFVIII the show the Compressing of Time and the imagery of falling through sky and water and finally an electric cloud of swallows. It is how I would envisage making the 'forced' transition to Eternity. It has a sound of 'falling'.
3. ('Depression' - Neon Genesis Evagelion)
The sound of this is quite bizarre and would fit with the surprise at the stark emptiness of Eternity and the realisation of loneliness in a very strange place.
4. ('This is your story' - Final Fantasy X)
Another theme for Eternity, but searching rather than despair. Also the final part sounds suggestive of something.
5. ('The Extreme' - Final Fantasy VIII)
The True Ultimecia theme from FFVIII has an opening which sounds like something 'starting up', and works as a prelim battle theme.
6. ('The Crumbling of Time')
I can't get over how amazing this is, it is so full of power and adrenaline that it is without a doubt the final battle theme of the fiction.
7. ('Rei' - Neon Genesis Evangelion)
Slightly sad sounding but mysterious. Just like Rei really.
8. ('Hitomi' - Escaflowne)
Mysterious, ethereal yet slightly romantic and it has a 'sparkling' sound, if that means anything to anyone but me
9. ('White Dove' - Escaflowne)
The beginning reminds me a little of a positive version of 'Depression'. It is a 'falling' theme but with promise.
10. ('Sora' - Escaflowne)
The title translates to 'Sky', and is a gorgeous piece that sounds Celtic but I'm not sure what language it is in. It is positive, and from 1:10mins in, it makes me think of something grand, yet mystical and unusual happening.
11. ('Kaze ga fuku hi' - Escaflowne)
A very positive 'finishing' song
